Wine-O Posted January 31, 2017 #5 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Their bloody mary mix stinks, in my opinion. Bring your own. I always bring a couple of bottles of Mr & Mrs T's Bold and Spicy and just get a shot of vodka and a celery stick from one of the bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's bold and spicy and better than Mr & Mrs T's IMO!!:p I agree that the BM mix on most ships is pretty bad but one can always spice it up just fine!! Take a bottle mixed with black and red pepper and/or some hot sauce, easier than lugging around a mix!!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakemurraykid Posted January 31, 2017 #7 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I have tried Bloodys on both Oasis and Allure and I think they're awful. They don't make their own concoction; they use something that's already made. It's sweet and nasty. I'm with the other poster to bring your own. My preference is Zing Zang and if you want hot sauce in it, bring that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaOne Posted January 31, 2017 #8 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations of a bar that has the best bloody mary on the Oasis? Zing Zang is hands-down the best bloody mary mix! NCL uses Zing Zing, and their bloody mary's are the best. I like the bloody maria, made with tequila instead of vodka! And Zing Zang is available in many stores. They make other mixers too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wine-O Posted January 31, 2017 #9 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Zing Zang is also very good, but it is difficult to travel with -- it's in a glass bottle and heavier to carry in your suitcase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdilme92 Posted January 31, 2017 Author #12 Share Posted January 31, 2017 (edited) Thanks for the advice everyone! I am a zing zang lover as well and I might pack a plastic bottle or two just to be safe after some of yall's advice! I have heard great things about the BLT bloody mary so I hope they have that! only thing that concerns me is people said they got them at Hoof & Claw Pub and the Plaza bar which Oasis doesn't have :eek: I'm sure they will have something great though, its the Oasis! :cool: Edit: When y'all pack your mix to you keep it in your checked bag or put it in your carry on? Last thing I need is my bags getting delayed or them getting confiscated because they think they are alcoholic Edited January 31, 2017 by pdilme92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last thing I need is my bags getting delayed or them getting confiscated because they think they are alcoholic Not sure what others have done but I won't go through the hassle of carrying my own Zing Zang on board. I really think taking hot sauce with you (and using the bar pepper) will improve the flavor of the bar BM mix.;) However, if you really want the hassle, I would suggest packing a bottle each in your checked luggage and in your carry-on, just in case they don't allow you to take them to your room.:rolleyes: Good luck!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camper51 Posted January 31, 2017 #16 Share Posted January 31, 2017 The mixes they use are mediocre - we found the key is to find an excellent bar tender to make your drinks special. We found Sheldon Mills on the Oasis to be a most excellent bar tender. He is very nice and wants to please the customer. He will go above and beyond, just tell him what you like. He put lots of extra spice in our Bloody Marys and he made a special Margarita with agave and fresh lime juice. We don't like generic drinks with a ton of sugar. He was in a few different bars each time we were on the ship so you have to look around for him. Tell him Giselle and Steve from NH sent you!

jamesr3939 Posted February 1, 2017 #18 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I too love BM and agree with everybody else for the most part BM on RCCL stink. In November they were using the Island's mix on ATS and to make even a decent one you have to instruct the bartender on how to spice it up. I was lucky as we were on the suite sun deck so after one lesson he had it down for me. I was a big fan of Lefty O'Doul's mix, but once I tried Zing Zang I was hooked. Bad news in CA I can only find the glass bottles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After you cruise do me a favour and report back about caesar's (never heard them called a bloody caesar before!) and, if they have them, if they're any good! I'm on Oasis on March 26. I've only ever had a bloody mary once and IMO they need more clam juice ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happycamper01 Posted February 1, 2017 #20 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I thought I was just being too picky! Never got a decent one on Oasis. And frankly, the bartenders as a whole were a disappointment. We usually find one or two that we really like and remember our name etc.... On Oasis, most seemed to be uninterested in their job. I'm hoping it was just the ship and that Harmony will be different. We are bringing either mix or spices, etc with us this time. Just hate that it's necessary!

pdilme92 Posted February 1, 2017 Author #22 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Thanks everyone for the advice! We will have a couple of hours of down time after we disembark and our flight so ill try to remember to report back then with what I find!

jeraud Posted February 1, 2017 #23 Share Posted February 1, 2017 We were on the Allure last month. Pleased to report that they now use Sacramento Blood Mary mix. Next time we're bringing our own olives, can't stand those RCCL ones. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesr3939 Posted February 1, 2017 #24 Share Posted February 1, 2017 We were on the Allure last month. Pleased to report that they now use Sacramento Blood Mary mix. I live just a few miles from Sacramento and have never seen Sacramento Blood Mary mix. I bet it's made somewhere else. However, I will have to keep an eye out for it. I am sure it can't beat Zing Zang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesr3939 Posted February 1, 2017 #25 Share Posted February 1, 2017 As I suspected, distributed by Red Gold, Elwood, IN. I can't even find it sold at BEVMO. However, it can't be all bad it contains jalapeno's and anchovies. It's gotta be better than that Islands stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
