titansluvr Posted October 26, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Hi fellow cruisers! I'm leaving in a few days on the Golden and can hardly wait:) Trying out new drinks is one of my favorite things to do on a cruise. I am fascinated watching what bartenders make for others. So my question is...what is your favorite cocktail?? I need some new ideas...TIA:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treven Posted October 26, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 26, 2014 (edited) Makers Mark or Southern Comfort, both/either "on the rocks", or a Tanqueray martini. If I want to order a foo-foo drink, it would be a Dirty Banana. Edited October 26, 2014 by Treven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pia1913 Posted October 26, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I'm a white wine drinker, but when I want something different it's a Frozen Margarita. Hold the salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Kinkacruiser Posted October 26, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Captain's Bounty, Melon Margarita, Pina Colada here.....can't wait for our next cruise.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrak Posted October 26, 2014 #5 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I don't know anybody else who drinks this but probably my favorite "breakfast drink" is Pernod and Orange Juice. Don't knock it if you haven't tried it. I love that drink. :) I know I was able to get it on one Princess ship - might have been the Star. I don't suppose every bar onboard actually has Pernod but some bar must have it and I intend to locate Pernod on my upcoming cruise. If anybody knows which bars onboard Star have Pernod I'd appreciate knowing which ones. I may have to go to Vista to find it - they seem to have a pretty complete stock of liquor.

Northender Posted October 26, 2014 #6 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Another wino here. Love my chardonnay. For a cocktail, I would say a Margarita but always stick to my wine.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLC535 Posted October 26, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 26, 2014 (edited) Three of my favorites below....:D Caribbean Cooler consists of coconut rum, melon liqueur, banana liqueur, citrus mix and pineapple juice. West Indies Yellow Bird includes a shaken melody of rum, galliano and banana liqueur with orange and pineapple juice. Cool Runnings cocktail has a combination of rum, banana liqueur, blackberry brandy and grenadine, blended with coconut and pineapple.

lovevacadays Posted October 26, 2014 #12 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I don't drink foo foo drinks on land. I do drink them at sea. I love the Mucho Mango and I love a Pina Colada. :eek::eek::eek: I ask the bartender to add an extra shot of vodka to the Mucho and an extra shot of rum to the Pina Colada. That way they are not too sweet. I also enjoy a Ketel One Martini in Crooners. I ask for a tray of assorted olives and I am very happy.:):):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seamwoman Posted October 27, 2014 #14 Share Posted October 27, 2014 I'm a white wine drinker too but their mojito's are great on a warm day and bloody Mary's are good too. At the urging of other guests at Crooners at noon I ordered a large one - two of us couldn't finish it! Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfields1814 Posted October 27, 2014 #15 Share Posted October 27, 2014 A shot of Jack Daniels with a beer chaser, Other than that a Dirty Banana. I also like Bailey's and coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdsqrl Posted October 27, 2014 #16 Share Posted October 27, 2014 From the Crooner's martini menu, but available at any bar: Chairman of the Board London Lemonade Also partial to the classic Tanqueray martini and the classic Tanqueray & tonic. Gin, as you may have guessed from the above list, is my tipple of choice; second choice is a nice single malt and Laphroig is my favourite, but I'm not remembering whether Princess has it. I liked the Bahama Bay Breeze out by the pool one afternoon. I'm not one to drink during the day much, but this hit the spot -- not too sweet and had no melon-flavoured ingredients (I hate melons of any and all kinds).

TwoCruisers Posted October 27, 2014 #17 Share Posted October 27, 2014 This is my wife's favorite Iron Butterfly Ingredients: • 1 shot Vodka • 1 shot Kahlua • 1 shot Irish cream Mixing instructions: Pour vodka over ice, add kahlua and irish cream. Stir, add 1 to 3 filbert nut(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruise Raider Posted October 27, 2014 #18 Share Posted October 27, 2014 I like a white Russian as a nightcap. I like mimosas in the morning but try it with grapefruit juice -- it is absolutely delicious that way. Lemon drops made with limoncello are really good....hold the sugar, though.
