Kerry Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Are there specific drinks that have been listed you can only get at certain places? I have made an actually list of everything everyone has recommended, and I'm going to try every one of them... just want to make sure I can find them!

A lot of the bars will have a specialty drink menu with drinks that they make at that bar. You may be able to get them at other bars as well, but I would peruse those menus at each bar to start knocking things off the list.

Amygs1 Posted September 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2019 I am on board now and definitely need that t-shirt! Too many fun drinks to try! So far my absolute favorite is a chocolate martini - yummy!!! I’ve also tried Lava Flow, Whiskey Sour, Rum Punch, Gin Fizz, Mimosa, Bloody Mary (yuck!) and one of the Collins drinks (that was obviously not so memorable - for whatever reason ). Found the standard Sauvignon Blanc to be serviceable for my wine with dinner. WannaCruise and IRMO12HD 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotleyCruiser Posted September 26, 2019 Report Share Posted September 26, 2019 A great drink that'll knock your socks off and tastes great....Red Headed Slut. Jägermeister, peach schnapps, Cranberry juice. You typically get it as a shot but get it on ice. A+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MotleyCruiser Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 Dr. Pepper shot. Drop a shot of Amaretto in to a 1/2 glass of beer and slug it down. Amazingly incredible!!

Zacharius Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 My personal number one rule - no beer. RC's beer is too crappy to justify a drink package...just give me the hard stuff (The only time I ever got a beer on a drink package is when I sprained my thumb and needed something cold to put on it, like an ice pack. A Bud Light aluminum bottle was the perfect remedy. I drank it, too, but that was a distant secondary benefit of the "purchase" of said Bud Light) For a more real answer - Tropical Old Fashioned.

Only... we did the Flaming Dr. Pepper -- Amaretto in the shot glass with Bacardi 151 layered on top to make it flammable. Light it on fire, then drop into the beer and chug! What are the odds the bar staff would make one of those on board? It's a definite "one and done"; hits like a mule and you don't need much more after that!

Plus, they'd probably be worried about the person then dropping the now-lit shotglass and missing the beer glass, spilling the burning alcohol all over the bar and other surfaces... no real liability / safety concerns there...

Orange Crush Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 Be adventurous! Having an unlimited drink package is a great opportunity to try something off the wall you're not sure you'll like. Look at all the house specials in the various venues on the ship, they all have unique cocktails that fit their themes. Prime example, I had always wanted to try a Negroni. I finally did and learned that I definitely do not like Negronis. RWDW1204, WAAAYTOOO and JLMoran 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momof4crazytocruise Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 Just got off Enchantment yesterday. My favorites were the Mojitos (frozen and not frozen), the Grey Goose Cosmopolitan, and the ringer was the Michelada by the pool before noon! (think bloody mary, but with beer and SPICY) Perfect when you're all sugared out by the frozen drinks. I enjoyed sampling the specials in Boleros, but can't remember what they were called.

I tried to order the lavender daiquiri at one of the shows and was told it was only made at the R bar. Never had a problem getting anything else from everywhere else. Had chocolate martinis in many locations. Though I didn’t try getting my favorite French 75 anywhere other than the Schooner where it was on their menu.

Does anyone know if the carry any top self whiskies? I can't speak to bourbons, but for scotch they're selection has become much better over the past couple of years - mostly in the pub, but if you ask the right person very nicely, they'll move bottles around. We mostly drink Islays and were delighted they started carrying Ardbeg 10 and often Talisker 10. They've got some Highland and Speyside offerings as well. Here are a couple of the more recent (post addition of other scotches) pub menus from some ships in the fleet, which will also show you the bourbons. https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/menus/king-country-pub-menu-brilliance-of-the-seashttps://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/menus/two-poets-pub-menu-navigator-of-the-seas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
