I only knew about the sling at Singapore. Does the Waldorf cocktail have walnuts in it?

Doesn't a Martini have Campari(vermouth)? there is a clue???

I'm going to guess at some;

Trader Vics - Mai Tai
Shannon Airport - Black Velvet
Venus in Santiago, Cuba - Mojito

I had my first Singapore Sling at the Long Bar of Raffles Hotel... Horrible. Turns out, it was actually invented down the street from the Raffles, but the hotel still claims it as its own.

The Black Velvet and Mojito weren't correct, but were still good guesses. No walnuts in the Waldorf cocktails. The Martini doesn't have Campari, which is fortified wine but not vermouth. However, there are two cocktails on this list that do contain Campari.

OK, two more guesses based on geography alone;

Pendennis Club in Louisville, Kentucky - Mint Julep
Park Hotel in New York City - Long Island Iced Tea

I never drink hard liquor, that is cocktails, so of the actual cocktails so far mentioned I only know martini (shaken, not stirred) and Margarita (wasting away in . . .). I know one more and riffing off Bilbo1967s logic I will guess:

Shannon International Airport in Shannon, Ireland Irish Coffee?

When I get home tonight I'll reveal all the drinks, and all you have to do is match them to the right bar. So you have until 7:00pm EST to guess without hints.

Right, seeing as how the Long Island Iced Tea wasn't the NY venue I guessed first, I'll guess it was the other NY place left on the list; Oak Beach Inn, Oak Beach.
