Hey, all you martini experts,
Does HAL have a pink flirtini on their martini menu? I fell in love with them on Celebrity, and since we are sailing on HAL, just wondered if I could enjoy them there.

That Pink Flirtini sounds fabulous!! (What's in it?)
The bar/wait staff on HAL are always happy to accomodate (they made me a "regional" martini recently, and though they'd never heard of it, they were more than happy to whisk it up for me once I gave them the instructions.)
Great bar staff!!

We just returned from the Westerdam. Here is the recipe supplied by a CC member, I think it's the same one Celebrity uses.
1 fluid ounce raspberry vodka
1/2 fluid ounce Cointreau liqueur
1/2 fluid ounce pineapple juice
1/2 fluid ounce cranberry juice
1 dash fresh lime juice
1-2 raspberries
champagne
I wrote the recipe down to give to the bartender in case he didn't know it, then I lost the paper, and had to rely on memory. Got everything correct except forgot the vodka. It was still delicious.

Magpie, what's the name of the regional martini you asked for?

That is a far cry from what I think of as a martini BUT whatever you choose to call it, is sounds wonderful. ;)

Oh YUMMY PKB...thanks for the recipe...I've made note of the Flirtini Martini recipe in my little travel book...along with our favourite "happy martini"...midnight esspresso martini...equal parts (1 shhot) of vodka; kahlua;baileys; francellico;chilled espresso...shaken (not stirred) and its like a chocolate milkshake but even better :p We try and stick with using decaf esspresso, so we are not wide awake drunks! Only one is required.
Glad to hear the bar staff will accommodate non-HAL drink recipes...we have a few others we're bringing along...but of course, are more than willing to try new martinis.;)
ONLY NINE MORE WORKING DAYS!!!!
