Firefly Posted January 28, 2019 Report Share Posted January 28, 2019 We loved the chocolate martinis at Champagne Bar on Oasis & Allure, where can we order these on Brilliance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd W Posted January 28, 2019 Report Share Posted January 28, 2019 as long as the bar is stocked appropriately, you can essentially order any drink from any of the bars. Chocolate martini's are pretty much a staple drink so you shouldn't have any issue on any of the ships. it may not be on the menu at all bars but you can certainly still ask for them to make you one.

tiny260 Posted January 28, 2019 Report Share Posted January 28, 2019 Agree with @Todd W , on this one, but if it isn't the Champagne Bar it is more than likely the R Bar. Firefly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twangster Posted January 28, 2019 Report Share Posted January 28, 2019 Radiance has a Champagne Bar where Brilliance has Vintages (deck 6). No Champagne Bar on Brilliance. Brilliance does have an R Bar (Centrum) and Schooner Bar that I bet can make them. The pub might even make them. Firefly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefly Posted January 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2019 Thank you for the replies. Happy to hear we should be able to order them. Honestly, my favorite dessert martini is the Tiramisu Martini at Champagne Bar, but I know the chances of other bars having the marscapone cheese for it are slim.

mom2mybugs Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 The hardest thing I have is that I never remember drinks to try and order! I know Michael Poole had a periscope up where they ordered a chocolate martini and turned it into a chocolate expresso one on Brillance...I think they were in the centrum at Rbar.

Todd W Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 I've recently renewed my love of whiskey. I can't get enough Bulleit Rye Old Fashioned's with raw sugar instead of syrup, luxardo cherries if available served neat.

We seriously skipped dessert the last 4 nights of our Oasis cruise and enjoyed drinking dessert. Yes, they are slightly over the drink package limit, but we thought they were well worth it. The Chocolate Martini was was covered in the package so we indulged on those other times.

JLMoran Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 Thought of another one, @twangster -- iced coffee with Bailey's Irish Cream. Had one of those every night on my Bermuda sailing as an after-dinner drink and really liked it! But be warned -- have it after dinner and you'll be awake until the wee hours!

jagnew Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 Just off of Brilliance, and my wife's drink of choice to end the night was a chocolate martini in the Schooner Bar. She was wary of going off script, since they had made such a great one in the champagne bar on Oasis as noted above. The gentleman behind the bar was... methodical... but the end result was excellent. He also kept refilling her glass from anything left in his mixer so it was like 1.5 drinks, which was not bad for a non drink package cruise.

Would you have to be in a restaurant to get this? Most bars wouldn't have coffee, right? Or I guess you could get a shot of Bailey's and then go to park Cafe and get coffee and make your own. This sounds awesome! I will have to try this...I did have Bailey's in my HOT coffee when it was -49.5 the other day! Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seriously skipped desserts in the MDR after discovering them and just went to the Champagne Bar on Oasis for dessert instead. Soooo good.

And honestly, if it wasn't for the fact I was wired every night I'd never have known there was coffee in it -- where I was expecting black coffee with just a splash of Bailey's, it looked and tasted more like it was 30% coffee and 70% Bailey's!

Ohhh. That sounds perfect. You’re making the case for the drink package. I mean if I have 3 fruity drinks in the day, 3 glasses of wine in the evening, maybe a baileys and coffee....bottled water all day....why wouldn’t I, right?
