What's Your Cruise Drink?

[RedIguana]

First drink has always been a Pina Colada for me. Ya'll are making me think I might have to follow that with another:) Oberon cab once pre-dinner imbibing starts.

Caipirinha

 

First drink and least one or two a day.  More on sea days 😄

 

 

Had one last night. Training for our trip to Brazil. Taste was OK, but the smell was horrible 😱

A lava flow with Kraken rum. Once I am sipping that I am in vacation mode.

What is in a bushwacker?

Virgin Islands Bushwacker Cocktail Ingredients

½ oz. Vodka

½ oz. Bailey’s Irish Cream

½ oz. Cruzan Coconut Rum

½ oz. Kahlua

½ oz. Amaretto

½ oz. Cruzan Dark Rum

¾ cup Crushed Ice

 

It's like a chocolate Pina Colada. We've had them on the ship but the best have been at

St Maarten & St Thomas...There a specialty of the islands and easy to find.

 

Once you have one you'll never forget .... Cheers !

I'm more of a "Classics" drinks guy.  I like a nice Gin & Tonic in a real glass at whatever bar is the first one I go by when we board.  But during the cruise, I'll try many various drinks and beers and wines, Classics, new ones, RCI Signature ones...

It's none of the corny "ship drinks" that have no liquor in them .. and cost $24.00+ each

 

Simple Absolut Mango with a splash of seltzer  ... that's my vacation drink!

Right there with you! Got hooked on this on Mariner in Sept

I had a Caribbean Mule for the first time on Anthem -- delish!  That and the Goombay Smash.

Appletini or Mojito. Depends if the new supply of Mint has made it onto the ship.

[pasodancer]

French Martini (just keep them coming!)

[Sunshine3601]

Used to be a watermelon martini but lately it's been the classic cuban mojito for me.

I do love the caribbean mule too!

In fact after reading this thread I'm now craving one.😃

Cachaça can be super strong and smelly.   Caipirinhas can have you dancing on the tables.  Be careful. 😜

Cosmopolitan for me, Pina Colada for DH.

[naturelovergirl]

I’m enjoying these answers!

BBC is my sailaway drink.   I hardly drink much alcohol as I prefer to chew my calories.

Cosmo on the rocks is my usual go-to drink.

[gsarnow]

They all look so good…but does anyone have any recommendation for good drinks with fewer calories….the yummy ones seem to always have the most calories and sugar….

Mojito isn’t too bad, especially if they cut back on the simple syrup. You can get it blended too. Quite the interesting color and it’s rather minty. 
I’m going to get one made with coconut rum today.

I like mine straight up, shaken not stirred and with a twist (and a cherry!)

You have just stepped on your cruise ship, what is the first drink you order?  There are so many delicious drinks!!

Pina Colada is likely the first one... Then I'll experiment a little for the first couple of days but then just usually settle for Long Island Ice Teas.
