tncap Posted January 27, 2014 #3 Share Posted January 27, 2014 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjd2 Posted January 27, 2014 #8 Share Posted January 27, 2014 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdette4 Posted January 27, 2014 #9 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Love the Deal Closer but then again Chipotle Pineapple was also good. I was lucky enough to score the recipe (including measurements) for six of the drinks on the menu: Deal Closer Forty is the New Twenty Curative Peac Cosmo Cucumber Sunrise Caribbean Manhattan Martini Seduction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MsMot Posted January 27, 2014 #12 Share Posted January 27, 2014 This drink below is sooooooooooo good! If you like chocolate you must try it- It is called "The Deal Closer"! 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?

wantocruisemore Posted January 27, 2014 #13 Share Posted January 27, 2014 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.

funinthesun1964 Posted January 28, 2014 #15 Share Posted January 28, 2014 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. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacruizer Posted January 28, 2014 #16 Share Posted January 28, 2014 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.

wrdupuy Posted January 28, 2014 #24 Share Posted January 28, 2014 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!
