Singapore Sling: ingredient choices

Which liqueurs are in this Singapore Sling?

This build lists cherry liqueur, triple sec and Bénédictine with gin, pineapple, lime, grenadine and bitters. Cherry liqueur is not the same ingredient as grenadine or a cherry garnish.

Compare French Martini: ingredients and measures

The IBA reference identifies Cherry Sangue Morlacco, Cointreau and Bénédictine. Kokto groups the first two as cherry liqueur and triple sec; a broad family match alone does not verify a particular bottle.
