A cold, frosty glass of Diet Coke with jiggling ice cubes and a straw. :D After lunch, we sit near the atrium and watch the passengers embarking while having a cold drink (Vodka martini for him tho). Ahhh....let the relaxation begin... :D

Great thread.

 

It has become something of a tradition over the years and i see no need to change it now.......Each time i board, my first drink is a 'Large Pina Colada' :p.

My first drink is always a club soda, purchased with my soda sticker. I drink it all day long at home, and generally, by the time I reach the embarkation port, I've been traveling for at least 24 hours and am desperate for another.

 

My second drink is always the El Mejor Margarita in the Elite/Suite/Platinum lounge...when it's held in Skywalkers. We love to go up there right after sailaway to watch the port fading into the distance.

I go straight to the International cafe for a frozen mocha!:D

w/ alcohol:

Nuts and Berries on the rocks

(1 oz frangelico, 1 oz Chambord, 2 oz half and half or milk)

Club soda w/ a squirt of pomegranate/berry MiO (that I bring myself) No caffeine or calories and really refreshing.

Strawberrry dacquari! Only done one cruise so far, my plan for the next cruise (1/12/13) is champagne on our balcony!

[cibaygirls]

As soon as we drop off our bags it it us to the pool. I get a mojito DH gets a bucket of dos equis. Once I finish my drink, I help him finish his bucket. We always sit on the stools overlooking the pool. That is our tradition. we intentionally don't drink dos equis at any other time besides a cruise :D, Leaving next week and can't wait!

[Parvatiiv]

Either a Love Boat or a Bugsy Martini. I always need two Bugsy's per cruise!:D

I head to Vines (if it's open) and grab a glass of Wolf Blass Shiraz.....:):):)

What's a topper? If it's whipped cream with a cherry, I am so getting one next cruise on my BBC. May add chocolate too. Never realized all I was missing!
