Tell me about "Martini Tasting"...

[MaiTaiMary]

~Will the Miracle have Martini tasting?

 

~What are the best Martinis?

 

~When (day/time) is this offered?

 

~Where is it?

 

~What did you think of it overall?

 

:D

They had it several times on Miracle in July. My personal favorite is the spicy chipotle martini. In addition to the sampler selection you can order any of them full-size.

-the miracle should still have it.

-i didn't drink them my wife did so i can't help you with which ones are good.

-what i remember is they are offered in the early evening around dinner time. the time will be in the fun times.

-the tasting is at the jeeves lobby lounge. the bar on the promenade deck 2 all the way aft by the dining room and next to the night club.

-it was $17 and my wife liked it. you pick 4 martinis but they are half the size of a normal martini.

I totally agree! I enjoyed the spicy martini so much that it became my go to drink the whole week. I am going to try it at home too:D

What other flavors do they have?

[Derbie]

Does anyone know if the Sunshine have a tasting? I tried one on NCL back in April, and it was lots of fun. The Mojito tasting was fun, but not as tasty as the martini tasting.

 

Thanks,

[splintz]

here is a link for the menu

My wife and I did the "martini tour" aboard the fantasy..... It was awesome!!! They were all tasty, but the bartender threw in one of his own creations and it rocked!!

We had it on the Miracle last March. For us it was OK at best. They were all pre-made in the plastic jugs. Nothing special but for $17 you should try it for yourself. You also get a little trinket charm with the order.

I did the martini tasting on Paradise and Victory. The menu on those ships was different than the one Zydecocruiser posted. Here's a pic.

 

 

My favorites were the Florida Squeeze and the Spicy Chipotle. On our last cruise (on Sensation), I just ordered a regular sized Spicy Chipotle. Yummy! :)

Here is Silvia on Carnival Victory. She could pour all 8 martinis at one time.

Even though they are little glasses, they do fill them right to the top. We split it four ways and each picked one. Then we traded around to taste them. (Sisters...we don't worry about each other's germs.) it was fun and a great way to sample four drinks to see if you like them.

This is from the Imagination not the same as NCL. On NCL there was a crowd and large martini glasses. I had 5 different Martinis. On the Imagination it was "tasting" glasses and you went to the bar during a set time. Good drinks in small glasses but not as much fun as the large group of clapping martini revelers ;)

I try to go to martini tasting every ship. I really enjoy it. Now whether I get there or not is another story. Seems like there is always something to do on the ship. I get to taste 4 different martinis. But here is picture of my martini tasting in July, On Fantasy. I discovered a new one that I really enjoyed. The one on the far left...I believe it was called a melon crush? It was the one I had last, maybe that is why it tasted so good. :o

 

[funinthesun1964]

And here is the martini tasting on the Victory. I was proud of the prize I had just won over at trivia. I remember this time I definitely did get the little charms and pamphlet, but the one I on the Fantasy I didn't. I really didn't care though, as I already had that stuff from previous tastings.

It's a lot fun, be sure to watch in the Fun Times what times and location where it is offered.

^^ Hi Brenda! ^^

 

Here is the martini tasting on the Sunshine, my favorite was the spicy pineapple chipotle , as well. Each martini is individually made, not large plastic jugs premade. Miro did pour them all out at once, though.

 

 

 

 

[funinthesun1964]

Hi Maureen! That spicy chipotle one IS very good also! I remember we also did the martini tasting on the Liberty (but I must have not taken any pictures). It was the updated Alchemy bar. Anyway, I tried one called lavender something, and it tasted like soap :eek: Don't get that one.

 

I have never had one of the bartenders pour all of them at once though...not that I can remember anyway. I see people with pictures of that and it is so cool!

[funinthesun1964]

Found the picture from the Martini Tasting on the Liberty! I remember now that bartender we had - he wasn't very friendly. He said he was getting ready to go home within a couple of weeks.

Not a martini drinker but did one, and really enjoyed it. I really enjoyed the spicy one don't recall what it was called, then again things got kinda fuzzy after that lol.

Awesome thanks for the pictures.

 

Lots of people in for the Spicy on. Going to get DW to split the four with me on our upcoming cruise.
