Videos of Cocktails with Asian Herbs & Spices

As part of the Life & Living series of workshops celebrating the 120th anniversary of the National Museum of Singapore, the online version of the national papers TODAY, and its mandarin counterpart MY PAPER, have featured a video on the various cocktails created with infusions of local herbs and spices. This was inspired by the Museum's exhibition Empire of Nature - The William Furquhar Collection of Natural History Drawings, donated by Mr. GK Goh.

The video was filmed in a mix of mainly mandarin and some English (partial subtitles also included), targeted at the cosmopolitan Asian countries/cities. See the vodcast (click on the video symbols) on Pandan Cosmo and Pan-Asian Cosmo.

Other cocktails included:
> Yuzulicious (Yuzu liqueur, laksa leaf, bitterlemon tonic)
> Secret Garden (Sweet basil, passionfruit, lemongrass, rhum agricole)
