AMaria1288 Posted May 11, 2010 #1 Share Posted May 11, 2010 How are the mojitos on Carnival? I've never had one on a cruise, but I've had them at restaurants at home and they are wonderful and truly one of my favorite drinks to enjoy. Has anyone onboard recently?

AdrenalineRush Posted May 11, 2010 #6 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Like most drinks, depends on the bartender...Some are ok and others are excellent. If you find a good bartender try to stick with them for the entire cruise :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare skittl1321 Posted May 11, 2010 #7 Share Posted May 11, 2010 I had one on the spirit (years ago) and it was WAY to strong. Even DH who has drinks like this regularly agreed it was too strong (I rarely drink. I generally like mojitos and bellinis). We ended up pouring half of it into 2 seperate glasses and having mint rum and coke. It was undrinkable as a mojito. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you find a good bartender try to stick with them for the entire cruise :) I can not agree with this more... I got a few mojitos one night, and they were awesome.. the next night and the night after that, I had to take them back to get "fixed". Something sweet was missing. You find someone to make a good one.. track them down. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excuse me while I toot my own horn... I make the best classic Mojito in the world (TOOOOT... TOOOOT!!!) but the ones on Carnival aren't bad at all. The Splendor has a bar called El Mojito and they do a great job! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luck of the draw, I guess...:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
combatboots2jimmychoos Posted May 11, 2010 #11 Share Posted May 11, 2010 My fiance liked them on the ship, however when we were at the Mahogany Bay in Roatan.....it was so messed up I had to teach them how to make it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyboyswife Posted May 11, 2010 #13 Share Posted May 11, 2010 are they real mojito's (ie with mint leaves and fresh lime) or fakes (ie like the bacardi frozen mixers)? Not to be a snob, but.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real, made from scratch and real mint leaves and fresh lime. I have them leave out the liquid simple sugar, makes them to sweet for my taste.

Bunkie103 Posted May 11, 2010 #16 Share Posted May 11, 2010 We've had them on two cruises and they were great. One time we were told they only offer them when they can get fresh mint, so you may not see them on the last few days of your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
js Posted May 11, 2010 #17 Share Posted May 11, 2010 I just found in the liquor store this weekend that Barccardi makes the Mojito Rum now, ALL mixed together. I added my own lime and fresh mint and had them ALL weekend and took the my son's baseball game on Mother's Day and made Mother's Day Mojitos, they were a hit LOL I've never seen it before and it would be WONDERFUL if BV Dept. would have but I wouldn't count on it. I'll call and see in a couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
