jetskier Posted November 21, 2006 #26 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Sorry - phrased that wrong. I meant can I go into a local bar - say at Sam's Town (Las Vegas) and request a Dirty Banana and they would know the ingredients without me telling them? I am a gin martini before dinner and scotch and water after dinner girl and fancy drinks are new to me - It is basically a banana daiquiri with the coffee liquor added. So they should be able to make it for you. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetskier Posted November 21, 2006 #27 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Thanks Jetskier. I guess that's even MORE drinks for me to try then. LOL:D All are good, but the Goombay Smash. It is not a sweet drink compared to the others. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetskier Posted November 21, 2006 #28 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Are all the drinks listed in this thread available on Carnival? Yes, these are all from Carnival ships. Once thing that I have noticed is that they are stronger on the last sea day. I also try get my drinks from the same bartender. I also tip him/her in cash after the second drink. Most of the time, you tend to get a little stronger drink the rest of the cruise. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memphislonghorn Posted November 21, 2006 #29 Share Posted November 21, 2006 My favorite Foo-Foo drink is a caribbean cooler. Malibu rum, blue curaceo, sweet and sour, pineapple juice. Awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarylandLady Posted November 22, 2006 #30 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I was on the Legend in October and I had my different drink everynite before dinner. Our bartender, Anca, who was fabulous(!) attempted to get me to try a Kiss on the Lips. I loved the mango dacquiri, so I finally relented and ended up having the Kiss on the Lips -- 4 nights in a row! It's the best! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds amazing!!!!:D What is nice about this drink is that the alcohol is masked. So someone who normally does not like a mixed drink will enjoy it. One thing I found is that it has to be mango puree for the drink to come out right. Mango juice is too thin. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave I'll remember that. Whare did you get the Mango Puree and the grenadine? I can get the Peach Schnapps no problem at the LCBO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be able to get the grenadine at the liquor store or Walmart. The mango puree I could only find at the liquor store. Finest Call Premium Mango Puree Mix is the brand name of the item. It should be available in Canada as it is on the list for your Beverage Container Recycling Act. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigsky Posted November 25, 2006 #36 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I'm surprised no one mentioned a BBC...Baily's, Banana, and Colada.. I've looked up the recipes online and there's a few ways to make them. They are sooooo good! And of course the mudslide... Gosh, I need another cruise! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
