Coffeeluvr05 Posted November 8, 2021 #27 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I had a great drink on a HAL cruise I took over the summer called a Brooklyn, which is a variation of a Manhattan, one of my favorite drinks. I ordered it several times. It was delicious! I highly recommend it if it can be made properly. I think it requires a maraschino cherry liqueur in addition to the usual sweet vermouth and bitters.

I looked for Brooklyn but didn't find that for Princess. I did find the Manhattan on the Princess Drink Menu; Bullet Bourbon, Sweet Vermouth, Angostura Bitters, Luxardo Cherry-does that sound like your drink? Also on the menu was the Amaretto Manhattan; Bullet Bourbon, Disaronno Amaretto, Sweet Vermouth, Angostura & Orange Bitters. I think I'll add this one to the LIST. 1. Bees Knees 2. Dark & Stormy 3. Captain's Bounty 4. Beverly Hill's Iced Tea 5. Dirty Banana 6. Caipirinha 7. Amaretto Manhattan 🍸 Cheer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's nothing particularly fancy, but it uses a base that's pretty hard to find in a lot of places (cachaca). We love the caipirinha! Lucky for us we brought two bottles of cachaça home from our South America cruise in 2019. We'll need to book that cruise again to restock our liquor cabinet. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did find the Ultimate Pina Colada on the Princess Drink Menu; Bacardi Superior Rum, pina colada mix- maybe they just add Bailey's Irish Cream and fresh banana? Sounds good, but I'll stick with the Dirty Banana on this next cruise since it is a Princess Favorite. 🍸 Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, cachaca is actually a white rum distilled from fermented sugar cane. Be sure to try it on your next cruise! 🥃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be sure to try it on your next cruise! 🥃 Sort of-- a major differentiating factor is that cachaca is made from sugar cane juice, whereas rum is made from molasses, which is after sugar cane juice has been processed to remove a lot of moisture and sugar. A rather minor distinction to most people, but I had the (mis)fortune of accidentally discussing this with a friend whose grandfather ran a cachaca distillery...
