winddawn Posted July 26, 2017 #1 Share Posted July 26, 2017 We've all tried or read about the typical Carnival cocktails. What's your favorite off-the-menu cocktail on Carnival? I like a rum Ricky....rum, lime juice, club soda, and lots of lime wedges. It's like a rum version of a margarita without all the margarita sugar. So what's yours?

2PinaColadas Posted July 26, 2017 #2 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Malibu rum, lemonade and blue curacao-- not sure what it is called, maybe a Bu Lemon ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidawg79 Posted July 26, 2017 #3 Share Posted July 26, 2017 So I had this on my first cruise, but having had anyone be able to make it since. They called it a "Manhattan Ice Tea" it was all the same liquors as a Long Island, but it was all top shelf liquors and instead of topped off with coke, they topped it off with Champaigne.....it was really good...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cricket_7 Posted July 26, 2017 #6 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Hurricane Wave. It's a frozen drink that's not as sweet as the others. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JawjaFatBoy Posted July 26, 2017 #9 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Oh to be able to find a barkeep who knows how to make a REAL Zombie! I've tried on every cruise, and one or two have come close, but none have been able to get it RIGHT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A&Jfamily Posted July 26, 2017 #13 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Alchemy anything. I like gin and the bartender one time wanted to use me as a guinea pig for a drink he had read with vanilla and lavender. I don't remember what else he put in it and he didn't have a name for it but it was excellent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T2C Posted July 26, 2017 #16 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I allow myself no more then 1 drink on a cruise, not a drinker, usually a Pina Colada as I love them but this year I believe I'm going to try a Dirty Banana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a drink on the Carnival drink menu that's called a Hurricane Wave - it's a frozen drink that consists of half lemonade daiquiri and have strawberry daiquiri. It is good and not as sweet (or sour) as those two drinks would be individually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momof3cruisers Posted July 26, 2017 #18 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Yes, and for a smoother taste, I have a white Russian made with vanilla vodka. Ooh that is a good idea. I also like Kahlua and cream with coconut rum. There might be a name for that but I don't know. My sister gets a drink called a Smith and Kerns. (I think.) Name doesn't matter as she has to tell them how to make it. It's a kahlua and cream with club soda. Makes it much lighter than traditional kahlua and cream.

bnewma4 Posted July 26, 2017 #19 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Yes, and for a smoother taste, I have a white Russian made with vanilla vodka. The vanilla vodka is a good idea. I actually like mine with milk instead of cream so its a little lighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
