What happened to the grasshopper? 

Soooooo I actually ordered it and drank it before I could take a photo... it was that good. It was the adult equivalent of a mint chocolate milkshake. Definitely a must after dinner for a night cap! 
 

9 out of 10 (one point off for being so sweet)

Botanical Spritz 

Botanical spritz:

 

5 out of 10.

 

Not my cup of tea but light and easy drinking. Super refreshing and will be right up a lot of people’s alley! 
 

sometime they serve with a Rosemary sprig but the bar ran out right now.

Lemon drop martini:

 

Amazing as a shot and even better as a drink. It’s like 3 shots poured into a cup. Great flavor, citrus isn’t over the top. The sugared rim adds a nice touch. Drink a couple of this for a start to a great evening!

Raspberry Lemon Drop

2 ounces of vodka, 1 ounce of raspberry liqueur,  1 oz lemon juice (With a sugar rim of course as

I just had a lemon drop so didn’t want to spend more of my sanity on another but I did ask and they said yes they would just add chambord which they have behind the bar, no problems.

Mr. Worldwide:

 

NOT HORRIBLE! This drink has an overall good flavor but it does have a weird after taste. Also, it says it has “strawberry purée” they just use Island Oasis Daiquiri mix. It would be better if they used actual purée.

Green Tea Shot!

 

10 out of 10

 

I love whiskey and I loved it... members of my party DO NOT and they loved it too. You can not taste the whiskey. It tastes just like green tea!

Glad you liked it!  Can’t wait for November!

French Martini:

A-List bar.

 

Honestly didn’t know if I was going to like this but was pleasantly surprised! The chambord adds a little sweetness but not too much. The bartender did a great job and it is perfectly chilled! This one is dangerous!

I think I’ll compile a list and do the same on our cruise!

Spicy Passion Mojito:

 

Mojitos are my jam!!! This one has a great balance of sweetness & spice! The mint and chili liquor cut the sweetness to a point where I could drink several of these. It has “spice” but is not “spicy”!

Raspberry Guava Mojito:

 

My FAVORITE Drink on an NCL ship. This has been a favorite of mine since the introduction of the Mojito bar. Perfect balance all around and great flavor. The guava is a very unique flavor you can’t alway get! A must have on an NCL cruise!

Better finish the mojito menu and have the pineapple coconut too.

I’m getting buzzed just looking at all these wonderful cocktails...!!

 

Feels like I am actually on a CRUISE. Haha. 

 

@drumexpert510 Are you finishing all of these drinks? Thanks for a great post!

 

I usually just stick to Pinot Grigio on the rocks, an occasional Fireball shot or Baileys on the rocks. 

Love me some Long Island Iced Teas, too...as long as it’s made fresh....no pre-mix stuff!

 

 It’s 5:00 Somewhere.  Cheers! 🍸

I am at LEAST drinking half. Trying not to waste. The only drink I tossed was the blackberry bourbon smash.
