topaz123 Posted August 1, 2023 #1 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Our go to drink is the classic old fashion.....we've had good and bad on carnival cruises, best was on Horizon at the Pig BB Q.....didn't want the smoked Old Fashion, just the classic with Woodford Reserve. Whats the best bar on Mardi gras for a great Old Fashion .? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom1965 Posted August 1, 2023 #2 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Normally i would say the Alchemy has the best old fashions however The Brass Magnolia was our favorite on this ship. I usually have it with Buffalo Trace though. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ray98 Posted August 1, 2023 #4 Share Posted August 1, 2023 The P&A is a great bar on the Mardi Gras. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted August 1, 2023 #5 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Fortune Teller has some interesting cocktails. The Third Eye is an interesting spin of an Old Fashion. But Brass Magnolia is the better spot for traditional. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaMommy75 Posted August 1, 2023 #6 Share Posted August 1, 2023 (edited) My husband and I are both huge Old Fashion lovers, however, on the Mardi Gras we found our favorite drink to be the Smoked Boulevardier at the Pig & Anchor. Alchemy, Brass Magnolia, and the Steakhouse bar all make pretty good OF. We also really loved the Negroni at the small Italian bar outside Cucina.

Chief93 Posted August 2, 2023 #7 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Allow me to suggest substituting Nixta corn liquer for the sugar/simple syrup in your old fashioned. Ya be thanking me later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joebucks Posted August 2, 2023 #8 Share Posted August 2, 2023 I was also pleasantly surprised that the Excel class have multiple bars that can make a proper cocktail now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
