xambriel Posted May 26, 2017 #1 Share Posted May 26, 2017 My wife and I will be travelling on the Equinox in June and have, for the first time, had the premium drink package included as a perk! We've rarely consumed anything alcoholic besides wine or beer, and have never really tried many mixed drinks or liquors. But with the drink package, we're interested in exploring some new tastes! Why not? :) Does anyone who has been aboard have a "ship specialty" that they really enjoyed, and would recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ghstudio Posted May 26, 2017 #2 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Tough question...but I'd recommend sharing the flight of martinis at the martini bar. Fun to watch them make/pour them and fun to try the different flavors. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awhfy Posted May 26, 2017 #5 Share Posted May 26, 2017 If you like really sweet try the banana split martini at the Martini Bar. DH has that instead of dessert Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barwick Cruiser Posted May 27, 2017 #6 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Aspen coffee from Al Bacio and Mudslide from any bar but especially lounging by the pool...ahhhh, can't wait until we're on the Equinox in October!! Enjoy your cruise and hope you come back to report what you enjoyed with the new package! Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had the premium pkg as well - I tried just about all the drinks at the World Class bar, they were good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuckeyeMan Posted May 28, 2017 #11 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Celebrity makes guavaberry coladas??? never had one on a ship-only in St Martin..... Marsha Pretty sure I was ordering them the last cruise :) After we left St. Marteen. I had never heard of Guavaberry until I stopped there and people from here told me you have to try guavaberry. Very good drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisonjean22 Posted May 28, 2017 #12 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Martini bar is a must!! I loved the Fresca which is a watermelon martini. There is also a slush bar on the pool deck which does great alcoholic slushes. They are all good....just work your way through the menu and enjoy.

lhsail Posted May 28, 2017 #13 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Just an FYI for when you do want to drink wine... We were just on the Equinox and had the Premium Package. Very inconsistent availability of wines from bar to bar. We were told that was done on purpose so each bar is its own 'experience'. Also, a wine available at a bar one day may not be available the next day as they would run out, even though that wine was still available somewhere else on the ship. We also had that happen in the dining room. Perhaps we got too attached to a small selection of wines, but even at the $13 a glass limit Celebrity does not provide very premium choices. Some of the pours were probably around 3 ounces. If I'd been paying for them I would not have been happy. All that said, we had plenty to drink.

tbugstwo Posted May 30, 2017 #16 Share Posted May 30, 2017 I have to put my vote in also for the Zacapa Old Fashioned. It is a great hand crafted cocktail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFLG Posted May 31, 2017 #17 Share Posted May 31, 2017 I think the best and most creative cocktails are served in Sushi on 5. The agave sunrise was awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
