jnwinos Posted May 6, 2009 #52 Share Posted May 6, 2009 At home its wine always. Cruising starts out with bloody marys, then drink of the day as long as we are at the pool, champane before dinner and of course wine with dinner. I know it sounds like a lot of drinking but what else are vacations for!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kescott98 Posted May 6, 2009 #53 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I am not a big drinker. I like any fruit drink without the alcohol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkat Posted May 8, 2009 #54 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Just have to tell you about the Woo Woo! Not to bad and a good time follows. Ingredients: - Vodka - Peach Schnapps - Cranberry Juice Glassware: Shot glass Making multiple shots: If a shot glass holds 3 ounces when making 4 shots, the total amount of mixture in a cocktail shaker should be 12 ounces. (3 glasses x 4 drinks = 12 ounces). If a cocktail contains three ingredients, pour one ounce of each ingredient. Pour the mixture into each shot glass equally.

timmy1958 Posted May 14, 2009 #55 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Pearl Harbor - Vodka, Midori, Pineapple Juice. They call them Pearl Harbors because they sneak up on you and then bomb the heck out of you! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredman Posted May 16, 2009 #56 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Generally I'm a wine drinker at home, but on cruises I tend to drink pina coladas, beer or bloody marys... I've never tried the caesar but now I'm intrigued... it's the same as a bloody mary but with clamato instead of tomato juice? Is it fishy tasting? Clamato is not fishy tasting at all. You will enjoy a Caesar. A Caesar uses vodka, clamato, few drops of Worcestershire sauce, and Cayenne Pepper Sauce like Frank's to taste. The glass is rimmed with celery salt. Garnished with traditionally a piece of celery, but lately some bartenders garnish with either a pickled aparagus spear or a pickled green bean. Very delicious....gotta try it. I find it almost impossible to get a Caesar in the US as it seems to be a Canadian cocktail. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ncovert Posted May 26, 2009 #57 Share Posted May 26, 2009 This has probably been done before but here goes anyway! Do you have a favourite cruise cocktail? Do you stick to what you drink at home or do you try new cocktails? My favourite is a Bloody Mary, however last year on the Legend I decided to go for the Vodka Martinis - well the first two days anyway after that I left them well alone!:eek: Looking forward to my first cruise cocktail on the Century at the end of the month.... now what will that be?..:rolleyes: I love to try the "drink of the day"... but also dislike being disappointed. I do know that on our last cruise my wife and I were not disappointed by the "drink of the day" on the first day of the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubfan63 Posted May 27, 2009 #58 Share Posted May 27, 2009 After my cruise last week on the Star Princess to Alaska, my favorite cruise cocktail is now the Passionada Martini. It is GG Vodka, Triple Sec, and Passion Fruit. Yummy! There were others on the trip really enjoying the Cucumber Martini, but I wasn't game enough to try one of these. It is, though, a Bacardi Cruise Bartender award winning cocktail according to the Princess cocktail menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spillway Posted May 28, 2009 #59 Share Posted May 28, 2009 I am one of those people who are blessed(cursed) with the ability to consume a variety of drinks. I will start out with a beer or two followed by a liquor drink of, say, whiskey sour If that doesn't please me, I can go to a glass of wine. Red, white, blush, or sparkling it doesn't matter just whatever my pallette desires. Gin and tonic, sours, daquiris, margarettas, martinis, screwdrivers, brandy alexanders are a few of my favorites just to name a few. I'm not saying I consume large quantities at one time. I can pick and choose my libations without the fear of becoming ill or waking up with a hangover in the morning. I'm going to try a few of the recipes posted here. Some of them look interesting.

DoggieDash84 Posted June 8, 2009 #61 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Ooo the Cesaur sounds awesome! I usually don't drink sugary drinks...maybe 1 or 2 the whole time tops. Too many of them make me sick. I typically stick to my normal - anything with vodka! I usually drink: flavored vodka w/soda water flavored vodka w/sugar free redbull martinis (1 or 2 at a time) sometimes I'll have: rum and diet red bull & vodka pina colada bloody mary screwdriver lite beer blue moon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They go nicely if your eating Wings, Nachos and Salsa or any pub style food. Or they are great on their own. They are a tasty drink, but a traditional tropical, rum punch type drink or pina colada probably best for poolside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terkatz56 Posted July 2, 2009 #66 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I had a BBC on the Ryndam last year, but for the life of me I can't remember what the ingredients are...any help?:) Otherwise I have to wait til my Sept cruise, I'd sure like to have one before then. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkudzu Posted July 2, 2009 #67 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I have a new favorite. It's called a Bay Breeze. Pineapple juice, coconut rum, and a splash of cranberry. Very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classy54 Posted July 15, 2009 #68 Share Posted July 15, 2009 It is like a Long Island Iced Tea, but made with Champagne instead of the splash of Coke. Princess Cruises make them yummy. Haven't gotten the Carnival bartenders to get it quite right yet. Hopefully my next cruise in 11 days on the Legend............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinky2 Posted July 17, 2009 #69 Share Posted July 17, 2009 After reading this thread my mouth is watering!! I am a drinker of sparkling at home but on a cruise I like to have a fruit tingle or midori splice. Though I do hope I can get a kiss on the kips they sound delicious.

fredman Posted July 17, 2009 #70 Share Posted July 17, 2009 How about a well made Mojito or even a classic Gin and Tonic made with the best gin - Bombay Sapphire Gin. A Mojito is really refreshing. The Gin and Tonic nice clean and simple great before dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisekwazee Posted July 22, 2009 #71 Share Posted July 22, 2009 My all time favorite drink is a Colorado Bulldog which is a White Russian with a splash of coke. These are yummy but can't drink them all night long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And "........we popped to the Bali Hai Bar because we had run out of packaged cigarettes and we did not want to roll any for the next day. We are definitely getting more and more idle! Standing next to a guy at the bar, I thought I heard him order a…….Boddingtons! Had I died and gone to heaven? Enquiring I discovered they had secured a delivery the day before. Oh Joy, Joy, Joy. So we had 3 glasses of our favourite brew before retiring. Ok $5.50 is a bit more expensive than £16 for 36 cans at Asda, but what price heaven?
