What is your favorite Princess mixed drink?

[gator582]

Maybe someone onboard can go to Croners then post the recipes, we can mix them at home and watch the bridgecam while we wait to sail :D

 

Not a bad idea. I still have 3 months to wait. ;)

I really enjoy....the 3 berry daiquiri, banana daiquiri, pina colada, emerald breeze, and other various martinis....yum! I look forward to trying more martinis in crooners this upcoming cruise!

[Pink flamingo52]

Blue Skyfall in Crooners was wonderful! Very relaxing and just a pretty drink...

I saw this question on the Royal Caribbean board and wanted to ask the same thing over here. The RCI thread is giving me lots of ideas for what to order on my next Jewel of the Seas cruise, but it doesn't help me much with my upcoming Caribbean Princess cruise unless both cruise lines serve the exact same concoctions with the same names.

 

I'm not talking beer or wine, but that special mixed drink that you just can't wait to order once on board.

 

On my Star Princess cruise I discovered the Bahama Mama which was delicious, but I'd like to know what else is out there that you like.

 

Love the frozen polar bear or similar name. Definitely an after dinner drink as it is rich, creamy, delicious.

I just found this site with drink recipes: aaronscruisechatter dot com Tons of cruise drink recipes.

I'm with you. Love my Dr. No martinis!!! My other favorite is the Chairman of the Board which I was introduced to in the elite lounge one night and it has been a long lasting relationship ever since!;)

[flying fingers]

Never had this? But since we both love the Chairman of the Board and Bloody Mary, perhaps I will try this on my next cruise. Can you perchance let me know what the ingredients are?

 

Never mind, found it later in the thread.

 

I love my deck of cards. When I am bored I shuffle through it and find something new to try!

I have the Crooners cards too:D! They help while away the time between cruises.

 

My favorite Martini is the Hacienda.

 

For the other mixed drinks, I love the Ultimate Cooler and on the last cruise, I started drinking Moscow Mules in the Wheelhouse bar.

[westendgirl]

Right now my favorite is Chairman of the Board. I've even managed to (almost) replicate it at home: 1.5 oz, each, top shelf vodka & gin, .5 oz. Grand Marnier or Cointreau. Shaken, not stirred.

 

But the best adult beverage I ever had was on the old Tahitian Princess: a Tahitini. It was a martini with tropical flavors (but not too sweet) and the glass was rimmed with fresh coconut. Have never seen it offered before or since - and believe me, I have asked. Cheers everyone!

But you'll bruise the gin :D There was a magazine article a while back that explained why "James" always ordered his that way. Are you a 00 :eek:

[flying fingers]

That's right. It is as tragedy:eek: when the liquor gets bruised!

I fell in love with the Dune Martini in Crooners while on the CB Back in 2010. By the end of 2 weeks our regular waiter would just say the Usual today, even remembered our surname and room No. It's touches like that that make a hols. Anyway we were on the Grand last Sept and the first place i headed for was the Crooner they have there. First question "can you make me a Dune's martini" yes was the reply so straight after dinner that was the place we headed for. Didn't doubt it but wanted to be sure. The waiter remembered me and only asked what Hubby wanted.

I asked Princess for the recipe so i make it at home, i also managed to get a pack of the Tee Many Martoonie cards of Ebay so i'm sorted for what ever takes my fancy.

In the Dune's

Malibu, Vodka, Melen Liquor, Banana Liquor and Sweet and Sour.

Hmmm delish......

[gator582]

Such excellent ideas. I will have to start making a list. The Moscow Mule sounds interesting.

[pjslc]

My favorite is definitely the Beverly Hills Ice Tea!!! But on a cold day I can just about always go for a "spiked" coffee like the Nutty Irishman. ;)

[Gunner22aa]

Ice cold and hopefully plentiful! Girly drinks are not for men!

[gator582]

I like girlie drinks sometimes, but give me a good gin martini, light vermouth, straight up, hopefully with blue cheese or anchovy olives, and I am very happy. BTW, what gins do they normally carry?

[cruiselovers20]

our favorites: Key Lime Pie Martini and Chairman of the Board martini! Both are outstanding!

[Sea Gypsy 2]

I really look forward to those Dirty Bananas!:)

They have Tanqueray and Bombay Sapphire, my two faves. Can't say as to what other brands they have, though.

Bombay Sapphire will be perfect. Thanks!

[gator582]

Yum, can't wait to try some of these delicious sounding drinks. Only 12 more days!:):D

[Samanthamelody3]

BANANA DAQUIRI!

with fresh banana's of course. so amazingly good.

[Jim Avery]

Another vote for the BBC:D and for that afternoon Pick Me Up, an Espresso Martini.:eek:

[Buchini]

Any thing with Grey Goose Vodka! Ice,Water,Tonic etc... At the New Seaview Bar on the Royal I can't wait!:):D:cool:

Nothing better than an XXdry Grey Goose martini up with a lemon twist at Crooners. My son loves the SkyFall martini...I didn't taste it but it is the most gorgeous color blue! After dinner.....a chocolate martini.
