Granted, it’s a little out of the way if bar hopping is on your agenda, but if you find yourself at Sentosa dressed to the nines, then you’ll fit right into The Pineapple Room. This new bar is housed within Capella Singapore’s gorgeous heritage building, and it pays homage to a crop that used to thrive in the Southern Islands back in the 19th century – pineapples. The fruit features in many of the bar’s cocktails, like the Queen of Spice ($26) which sees pineapple rum with apricot liqueur, lime, cardamom, and egg white; or the Scarlet Rouge ($24) which blends dark rum, cherry liqueur, pineapple, pomegranate, and bitters.
Not a fan of the tropical fruit? The bar also shakes up classic cocktails just the way you like them. Non-drinkers are not excluded as well, with a thoughtful zero-proof section featuring rotating drinks crafted with seasoning ingredients. The Pinery ($18) is the most iconic on the list, featuring pineapple, lime, agave nectar, and chilli in a concoction that’s meant to be an ode to Sentosa’s Palawan Ridge, a former pinery.
