[inlinesick]

cucumber something was just incredible good and fresh, loved the embience too!

[tncap]

It gets quite crowded in the evening. I prefer to order off of the menu. Just name an ingredient and tell them to use their imagination. Those are the best.

We had several yummy drinks at Alchemy but the only one that stood out and that we had to continue making at home through the summer was the Cucumber Sunrise. 62 more days and I'll be having another one that I didn't have to make myself. :p

Deal Closer

Forty is the New Twenty

Curative Peac Cosmo

Cucumber Sunrise

Caribbean Manhattan

Martini Seduction

Yum!! That looks decadent. Unfortunately, the Breeze does not have the Alchemy Bar. I still may be able to request this at any other bar - you think?

Not sure, wouldn't hurt to ask.

 

But the Tiramisu martini is very similar and you can get it at other bars! not just alchemy.

I had the Tiramisu Martini and it is also good. Similar taste ;)

The 40 is the new 20 was wonderful. I want to try a couple others though. We are going on the Conquest later in the year, so will definitely hit the alchemy bar. :)

The Caribbean Manhattan is great. Really, they are all good.

 

The bartenders do some of their best work once they get to know you a bit.... name and ingredient or two and they will invent something yummy for you.

The spicy chipoltle is the best. Making my mouth water just thinking about it. 47 days and I will have one in my hand :D

Bernadette, you are awesome! Thank you so very much!! I have been craving a Cucumber Sunrise since I was on the Conquest back in July. My next cruise is on the Dream and my biggest disappointment was the lack of an Alchemy!

 

Thanks again!
