happy cruzin Posted January 8, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Last year when we sailed the Escape the Haven lounge offered jalapeno infused Patron. DH became VERY fond of it and asked for it in MANY of his drinks during the week. My question....have you seen this jalapeno infused Patron offered on other ships?? We sail the Epic in a few weeks and I wonder if it will be available again! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clyde3 Posted January 9, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 9, 2017 We were in the Epic Haven three months ago and found that the bartender infused his own liquors. He had several of these special containers he used to make the flavored liquors. If Diego is still on the ship tell him on the first day and he will make it for you.

tombec1 Posted January 9, 2017 #3 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Diego was there on my 12/10 sailing, and he'll customize pretty much anything for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omarchs Posted January 9, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 9, 2017 We were just on the Breakaway in the Haven. We did also see the infusion containers but never asked about them. You just need to be aware that Patron is no longer included free in the drink package since it is now dubbed a premium liquor. It is at $16.95 which is above the $15 limit for the included drinks. You would need to pay the extra 1.95 plus an 18% tip (I believe just on the 1.95) for each Patron. FYI - NCL was also enforcing the local tax on drinks if you were in port including GSC so you were paying the tax on the full amount of your cost for each 'free' round with your drink package.

js Posted January 9, 2017 #7 Share Posted January 9, 2017 What a shame! We just sailed in Haven on breakaway but I had no idea the bartender had his own infusions. So did I and it wasn't until the last evening I asked about the bottles that were behind the bar above the regular alcohol bottles did I find out :( Not going to get me again next month on the Getaway LOL :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, Diego will not be on the ship when you get there. He leaves at the end of this week for vacation. He is an outstanding bartender though, and made my husband a different "Diego" concoction every night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhoenixCruiser Posted January 9, 2017 #9 Share Posted January 9, 2017 When it says Free Open Bar as part of the Haven cabins is that the same as having the UBP? Can I use any bar? Thanks! ### Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AP1016 Posted January 11, 2017 #13 Share Posted January 11, 2017 If you ask the Haven bartender, they will create a drink for you with the infusions. Fun to try a new one everyday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
