When a brand like Yeo’s joins hands with iconic names such as Singapore Airlines and Hopscotch Singapore, it’s safe to expect something truly special — and this SG60 collaboration delivers exactly that. Starting from 8 August 2025 onward, Yeo’s is celebrating Singapore’s 60th anniversary in an elegant yet uniquely local way, offering travellers and lounge-goers an indulgent drink experience that blends cultural heritage with modern mixology.
The spotlight is on Moonlight on Emerald Hill, a cocktail that reimagines the classic local dessert Cheng Tng with a refreshing and sophisticated twist. This is not just another drink — it’s a carefully crafted combination of flavours designed to evoke memories of home while introducing a playful, modern flair. For those who prefer to skip the alcohol, a mocktail version ensures that everyone can take part in this celebratory sip.
What Makes “Moonlight on Emerald Hill” So Special?
At its heart, this drink is a celebration of Singapore’s food culture and the artistry of cocktail-making. The base is Yeo’s Orchid Chrysanthemum Tea — a drink many will recognise from childhood, but here it takes centre stage as a refined, aromatic foundation. To this, fragrant longan and red dates are added, infusing natural sweetness and a mellow fruitiness that pays homage to traditional local flavours.
The alcoholic version is elevated with white rum, Cointreau, and DOM — creating a layered profile where floral tea notes meet zesty orange liqueur, rich herbal undertones, and the warmth of rum. The result is a drink that’s at once nostalgic and new, familiar yet surprising.
Meanwhile, the mocktail version stays true to the refreshing, floral-fruity profile but allows non-drinkers to enjoy the same indulgent flavour experience. This inclusivity makes it perfect for travellers of all preferences.
Where Can You Get It?
This exclusive drink isn’t available just anywhere. It’s being served only at Singapore Airlines’ The Private Room and SilverKris First Class Lounges in Changi Airport’s Terminals 2 and 3. These lounges are known for their luxurious atmosphere, top-notch service, and curated food and beverage offerings — making them the ideal setting for this celebratory creation.
If you’re flying Business Class or hold KrisFlyer Gold status, you’re not left out. Yeo’s SG60 special edition Orchid Chrysanthemum Tea (without alcohol) is also available at the SilverKris Business Class and KrisFlyer Gold Lounges in both Terminals 2 and 3. It’s the perfect way to sip something special before your flight and feel a little extra patriotic while doing so.
Why This Is More Than Just a Drink
There’s something deeply satisfying about seeing familiar local flavours elevated to match an international luxury setting. For many travellers, especially Singaporeans, Moonlight on Emerald Hill offers a taste of home before embarking on journeys abroad. For international visitors, it’s a gentle introduction to Singapore’s rich culinary heritage.
Yeo’s, Singapore Airlines, and Hopscotch Singapore are essentially telling a story through this drink — a story about tradition, modernity, and celebration. And that story is perfectly timed for SG60, when the entire nation is reflecting on its past, present, and future.
The SG60 Special Edition Orchid Chrysanthemum Tea
Apart from the cocktail and mocktail, Yeo’s is also offering a special SG60 edition of their Orchid Chrysanthemum Tea. This version pays tribute to Singapore’s national flower — a symbol of elegance, resilience, and cultural pride. Served in Business Class and KrisFlyer Gold Lounges, it’s a subtle yet meaningful nod to the milestone celebration.
It’s the kind of small detail that makes a big difference in the travel experience. Whether enjoyed cold before boarding or sipped slowly while catching up on work in the lounge, it’s a drink that’s both comforting and celebratory.
Why You Shouldn’t Miss This Deal
1. It’s Exclusive
The fact that this promotion is limited to Singapore Airlines lounges at Changi Airport makes it a rare treat. You can’t just walk into a bar in the city and order Moonlight on Emerald Hill — it’s something you can only enjoy under specific circumstances, making it all the more special.
2. It’s a Unique Fusion of Flavours
Blending a beloved local dessert with international spirits and premium ingredients is no easy feat, but this creation nails it. The result is a drink that’s complex yet approachable, luxurious yet deeply familiar.
3. It Elevates the Travel Experience
Air travel can be hectic, but moments like these — where you’re sipping a beautifully crafted cocktail in a serene lounge before your flight — remind you that the journey itself can be just as memorable as the destination.
4. It’s Part of a Bigger Celebration
SG60 is a once-in-a-lifetime milestone, and this drink is a delicious way to be part of the festivities. It’s a literal toast to Singapore’s heritage, crafted with care and thoughtfulness.
5. It Appeals to All Types of Travellers
Whether you drink alcohol or not, there’s a version for you. This inclusivity makes the experience more welcoming and ensures no one misses out.
Making the Most of the Experience
If you happen to be travelling through Changi Airport’s Terminal 2 or 3, plan your lounge visit strategically so you have time to savour the drink without rushing. If you’re in The Private Room or SilverKris First Class Lounge, go for the cocktail version and enjoy it with some light snacks from the buffet — the sweet and floral notes pair beautifully with both savoury bites and delicate desserts.
If you’re in the Business Class or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, make the most of the SG60 special edition Orchid Chrysanthemum Tea. Even without alcohol, it’s a beautifully refreshing drink, perfect for unwinding before a flight.
For those who enjoy collecting experiences, this drink is worth remembering. Take a moment to appreciate not just the taste, but the thought and craftsmanship behind it.
Final Thoughts
In a world where many airport lounges serve standard, predictable drinks, the Moonlight on Emerald Hill stands out as something created with both artistry and purpose. It’s more than just a beverage; it’s a symbol of celebration, a nod to Singapore’s roots, and a treat that’s perfectly aligned with the luxury of Singapore Airlines’ lounges.
If you’re flying with Singapore Airlines and passing through Changi Airport from 8 August 2025 onward, this is one experience worth seeking out. Raise your glass — or your mocktail — and join in the SG60 celebrations in style.
