Martini tasting

[roseaxel]

Anyone done the martini tasting recently? Do you still get a recipe book?

[roseaxel]

No one has done this?

[5Hawkeyes]

Would like to know the answer to that as well.

[Leinad79]

I did it last March (2013) so not exactly recently. They gave it out then.

Never done the "Martini Tasting". I just do the Cheers program and try whatever Martini I want. :D:D:D

My daughter and I did it December 2012, but we didn't get the book. Had fun though.

[Cruise-Crazy]

Not really a book but the recipes of the available martinis. This was a couple of months ago.

I've never done the martini tasting but it's on my bucket list for our next cruise! I'd love to get my hands on those recipes...not that I drink all that much...but I like to have recipes for my parties. If anyone has them, would you mind posting them and sharing them? Thanks in advance to anyone who does!:D

We did it in October. No recipie book. But you get a charm for your martini glass.

November 2012 on the Legend. I got the recipe booklet and a charm.

[Warrior64]

Whats the price on this? And how many martinis do you get? :)

[my2monkees]

Just did it in Jan. and you got a card with the charm and it had recipes on it. It was $17.00 and you got to pick 4 of the 8 martinis. I enjoyed doing this

We did this on the Valor in January. The first time we got the charm and the "recipe book" which really is just the menu that you checked the martinis you wanted. The second time we had to ask for the charm.

 

It really is fun to watch the bartender pour all four at the same time. They have to use five shakers nested in each other and the glasses have to be lined up just right so that nothing spills out. It really is a good deal, and once you find one you like, you can order the big version of it. I was cruising with three others, so we were able to share and sample all of them.:D

[Susiecruisey]

What are the martini choices you get and are they full sized martini s

[KPfromCT]

Does anyone know which bar they do this at on the Breeze?

I would love to try them...

Plus, I think it's AMAZING how they pour 4-5 at once:eek::eek:

 

Thanks!:D

We've done this on several cruises & it is not only a great deal, but loads of fun. They are "mini" martinis & I would say each of the 4 would be the equivalent to 1/2 of a normal martini. ...and as the others have said, you get to keep the little booklet (sort of a fold out card) that has the martini choices & recipes that you select, plus the charm. Our favorite two martinis are the Spicy Chipotle and Blackberry Bramble.

 

The other choices on our last cruise were the Classic Cosmo, Pomegranate, Melon, Florida Sunrise, Carribean Sunset and Sea Blue.

 

My wife and I cannot hardly wait till our cruise June 1 to hit the Martini Bar!:)

The first time we tried it was in 2012 and we got the charm and booklet. But they changed Vodka's so the drinks changed up a little. Still love to try them out before deciding on a full size Martini.

We're planning on doing this for our next cruise, plus we want to do the Martini class as well. Alchemy bar was our favorite on Liberty last sept.

 

What kind of charm do you get???

[gumdrop38travel]

Does anyone know what day the martini testing is....This was alot of fun!!! We are going on splendor in June

[KPfromCT]

Do they post this in the Fun Times?

Anyone know where this is done on an 8 night Breeze cruise?:D:D

[Andoria]

Does anyone know what day the martini testing is....This was alot of fun!!! We are going on splendor in June

 

I'm not going on the Splendor until next month but I do know on the Legend, they offered martini tasting nearly every day. Just check out the Fun Times.

 

 

The charm was a miniature martini.

[wmowan8485]

I'm on the Splendor next week and will definitely check this out.. :D So far my favorite is chocolate...

[Anjanu]

I love going to the martini tastings! What people don't realize is that you can do it at any time, not just the time that may be listed in the Fun Times. I've done it several times throughout my cruises.

I didn't get the charm when I did this on the Spirit to Australia, but the bartender was a grump, and I didn't know to ask.

 

But I am definitely going to do this again on the Legend to Australia.
