Gator83 Posted March 15, 2009 #28 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Have no fear about Princess bartenders making the drinks to strong. I totally agree with you. They barely put any alcohol in the drinks which is why I have switched to just drinking wine and beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flipflopfan Posted March 15, 2009 #29 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Try the rum punch! If you have any excursions planned while in port and they offer Rum Punch.........all I can say is enjoy! Have a great cruise!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cindep Posted March 15, 2009 #30 Share Posted March 15, 2009 If you're ever in St. Thomas, take the snorkel excursion to Turtle Cove on the Flying Dolphin. On the way back, they make a lovely drink called a "Painkiller". It lives up to its name!! Tastes great ... goes down easy ... and packs a wallop!! Also in St. Thomas, take the tram to Paradise Point and have a Bushwacker! Can you tell we drink a bit in St. Thomas?! I agree on the Limoncello ... it is yummy!

Sandytoes Posted March 15, 2009 #31 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I agree on the Limoncello ... it is yummy! A while back I started a thread about Princess's Limoncello http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=821357 It shows how they make it. Yum!!!

tradogna Posted March 16, 2009 #32 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Limoncello never had it, but I am going to try it on my up coming cruise. Always interest in a new drink.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHIEB2812 Posted March 16, 2009 #33 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Here's a second vote for the Miami Vice, too good! Its half Daquiri half Colada and looks so pretty in the glass :D I will also second the Dirty Banana also called the chocolate banana, doesn't taste like it has any alcohol in it. I am interested in some of these other drinks you all are mentioning? Whats in them? Whats the flavor?:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickEk Posted March 16, 2009 #34 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I'm sure this advice is true. However......"Martini Bars" are a pet peeve of mine. As a self proclaimed martini aficionado (check my avatar :D) I take exception to the casual use of the word "martini". These very delicious drinks mentioned above are in reality mixed drinks served in a martini glass. Martini (cocktail) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The martini is a cocktail made with gin and vermouth. Sometimes, vodka is substituted for gin, although this is properly called a vodka martini. The drink is almost always garnished with an olive or, less commonly, a sliver of lemon peel. It is often described as being "crisp" or "astringent". Over the years, the martini has become one of the most well-known mixed alcoholic beverages. H. L. Mencken once called the martini "the only American invention as perfect as the sonnet",[1] and E. B. White called it "the elixir of quietude".[2] It is the drink of the one-time "three-martini lunch" of business executives, now largely abandoned as part of companies' "fitness for duty"[3] programs. I really need to get a life!!;) Enjoy your cruise and your cocktails. Oh so true! I usually get a Chairman of the Board or the 007. Quite the traditional martini. And, be sure that you get the olive tray! Talk about YUMMY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balconies R Us Posted March 16, 2009 #36 Share Posted March 16, 2009 At Crooners on the Island we had a "Blackstar Liner" almost everynight before dinner, and maybe after dinner too. Kind of a coffee "martini" with a touch of chocolate. The drink was wonderful but the best part was our waiter Wilson he shook everyone of them with enthusiam!

u2cruiser Posted March 16, 2009 #39 Share Posted March 16, 2009 The pomegranate martinis in Skywalkers were delicious and VERY strong. They weren't quite as good in Crooners. We found out they use pomegranate syrup in Skywalkers and pomegranate juice in Crooners. Lemontinis in Crooners were my favourite. I asked for them strong and I got them strong everytime. Tip helped I think. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is pretty good and you don't taste any alcohol. Don't let them catch up on you.:D Have Fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimi39 Posted March 16, 2009 #41 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I like to have a vodka martini with a twist of lemon at Skywalkers at 5:00 o'clock (and it's always 5:00 o'clock some where). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirkko Posted March 16, 2009 #45 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I really like the Flamingo martini. And try the fruit soups at dinner in the Main Dining Room. Most of them are served in glasses like a drink but they don't have alcohol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisenuts4life Posted March 17, 2009 #48 Share Posted March 17, 2009 My favorite is Miami Vice on the ship . At home I make chocolate martini and it is my favorite.Not sure how they are made on ship but I am sure they are good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balconies R Us Posted March 17, 2009 #49 Share Posted March 17, 2009 u2cruiser...That one is really pretty! Ours never had a heart on it, the chocolate was dusted on the top. It really was a great discovery on our first ever cruise. It hasn't been duplicated since. I think Wilson had a lot to do with it...what a great personality and a very good waiter.

I don't recall the name of it as it was my friend's choice. It had Tia Maria in but not sure what else. The heart was piped on first, made of 3 colour chocolate which set hard.
