Frozen cocktails

[Salem]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone can recommend some frozen cocktails? On my past cruises I have found that these aren’t shown on the menus but you can order, previously I have had pina colada, strawberry daiquiri and a lava flow. 
I have seen pictures of old menus showing frozen mai tai, frozen rum runner, frozen mojito, frozen Bahama mama and more, are these drinks still available? 
Thanks in advance

lava flow with kraken rum = Yummy

Yes, those drinks are still available. One other very popular frozen cocktail is the Coco Loco.

Some bars can also make Mudslides (Vodka, Baileys, Kahlua, Ice cream)

As long as they have the ingredients (and a blender for the frozen drinks), any bar should be able to make any drink request, regardless of the "menu."

On Oasis, the best bartender ever, Anthony, made a Love Connection which is a lava flow with mango puree. Was very nice. He also made something that he called a Bob Marley?, it had 3 colors but not sure it was what a true BM drink has in it.  

Also the usual - mudslides, Miami Vice, frozen margaritas.  I've seen that if you bring a banana to a bar, they can make something similar to a banana daiquiri, which I love.

I'd love to hear others suggestions. I love a frozen drink.

Just so you know, most available drinks (frozen or not) aren't on any menu.  Most bars only show a menu of drinks that are unique to their location.  These drinks might not even be all that unique but they have been given a specific themed name at that bar.  Everything you've listed is a standard drink that any qualified bartender should know how to make as long as their bar has the ingredients and a blender (if necessary).

Oooh thank you! Is this the drink for Cococay (which is also the same as a labadoozy?) ? 
Are you able to order these on board or is it only when you’re at these destinations?

My upcoming cruise is my first Caribbean cruise so I’d love to try some tropical drinks!

One thing you won't find is a frozen banana daiquiri , which I find interesting as Celebrity stocks it.  A bartender on Liberty tried using a banana liquor in one attempt, but it was not very good.

I've only had Coco Locos onboard and at Ladabee. I've never been on a Coco Cay itinerary yet!

[GoldenTimeHero]

What rum would you recommend for the Coco Loco?

[leesam82]

I love the cocoloco/labadoozee. I've also had success by asking the bartender when they weren't too busy asking for a recommended frozen drink. 

[Rakaia]

Frozen mojito. Yum yum!!

Bailey's Banana Colada! Only had to ask for a BBC on Liberty couple weeks ago and they served it right up, and they were also serving the frozen Mojitos.

On our Doctor Who celebrity/fan cruises, a BBC is obviously a popular choice, LOL!  www.scificruise.com

Of those not mentioned... Kraken Colada, Bushwhacker.

I like them too! The wife doesn't drink but she does enjoy the virgin Lava Flow.

Tried to get one on Harmony but they said they did not have whatever the banana ingredient is.  Very disappointed.

Sorry to hear that. Had a bunch of them on Harmony back on 5/29. I believe the banana is some sort of banana liqueur.

Chiming in late to say: Blue Hawaiian! (Specifically, I ask for a frozen Blue Hawaiian with Malibu rum.) It's blue (obviously) and extremely refreshing!

[twangster]

I often like it simple.  A frozen lemonade with a shot of grey goose.  You can't taste the alcohol and it's so refreshing.

That would go down way too fast, short of a brain freeze pause

Confirmed.

Absolutely love Blue Hawaiians frozen or not!  And for @Pooch when we were on the Freedom in April…my son made friends with a bartender working the bar at the pool.  That bartender introduced him to the BBC and we all drank them for the rest of the afternoon!  There were 6 of us drinking them so perhaps we emptied out the supply of banana rum?  🫤‍. Sooo delicious!

[barjpoe]

Just came off Jewel, asked for a Lava Flow but the bar didn't have the Strawberry puree, so they substituted Blueberry puree which was just as tasty,  if not better.

Wondering if that flavor of drink has a particular name?

[WAYNO]

Coco-Loco or Laba-Doozie .  They are both absolutely terrific.  I kinda-sorta lived on them on my last cruise.  When I got home I had a routine blood test, and my sugar was off the chart!

Even for a non-diabetic, there can be too much of a good thing.

We are on Explorer in October & I am on a mission to have one (or 2)!

My cabin mate only drinks bottled water and frozen Coke.  Was hoping there would be frozen Coke or something similar onboard.

never seen a frozen coke or similar on a ship.   maybe a bar can make one if you ask they would make it like they do a frozen cocktail so it would be blended ice and coke.
