Favorite Mixed drinks on ncl

[lgdesign]

Does anyone know if you can get a Jamaican Paradise on NCL?  It was my recent go to drink this past T-Day on the MSC Seashore... As nice to look at as it was to drink.

I wouldn't be afraid to ask!!! If they aren't familiar with the drink, but you have a printed version of it, they might be willing to make it for you.

 

Is this (approximately) the right drink?

1 ¹⁄₂  ounces rum

1/2 ounce tequila - gold

¹⁄₂ ounce melon liqueur

¹⁄₂ ounce blue curacao

3 ounces sour mix

Ice

That sounds about right...

If it is something you love, ask for it!  If it seems a bit off for your tastes, ask for it again with more (or less) of this or that.  And, show your appreciation!!! 😉 

By the way, I only do these kinds of requests directly at the bar, and only if there are very few (or no other) customers/servers waiting.

On one cruise, our waiter was referring to us as Mr and Mrs Worldwide...  😉

 

On my very first NCL cruise, after discovering my love of the Mr. Worldwide, the bartender at the casino bar would yell "Mr. Worldwide" every time he saw me, even when I wasn't ordering a drink!

Absolutely!

Spicy passion mojito is my new favorite.  I now make them at home when and have the recipe down pretty good.  

[zackarykeef]

Rebellious Fish for sure by the pool all day (if they make it correctly 🤣)

 

Espresso martini on the rocks at the Atrium Bar (or any bar with an espresso machine)…make sure they splash Frangelico or Godiva

 

And if you don’t want to remember a night out…ask for a Tokyo Tea. You’re welcome 🤪

Do any (or maybe all?) of the bars do a sangria?

I know at least the pool bar does.

Wait… what?!?!?!?!?

 

nooooooooo!!!!!  It’s always been my first drink.

It has always been my traditional first drink also but the bar that it is being made does make a difference.  I have always had success at the Atrium Bar and the one at the Observation Lounge. Keep trying until you succeed with the right bartender.

I created a beverage list for a Meet & Greet a few years ago. Here it is for anyone's enjoyment. NCL_Beverage_List (3).pdf

I am a big fan of the perfect margarita.  They do vary from bar to bar though.  Last year on the Encore, the Atrium bar made the best ones!  Also the Woodford Old Fashioned is fantastic.

Maybe I don't want to know... but what's in a Tokyo Tea?

[BigRedFan]

The Negroni is exceptional!

We were on the Breakaway last month and were told you can only get Sangria at the pool bars

It’s basically a Long Island, but sub Midori for the coke. Makes it taste like juice despite it being mostly liquor 🤣

 

And for the record…I was given this originally by an NCL bartender on the Getaway when I told them to “just make me something” once. I don’t regret it 🙃

When we were on the Bliss in December, we discovered Miguel and his eco-sustainable bar which is outside at the Sugarcane Mojito bar.  He upcycles food items, often using them to make infusions for his drinks!

[barb65]

Bushwacker and Mango Meltdown are two of my favorites along with the good old Pina Colada and Miami Vice.

Do they still offer a Drink of the Day?

I like Glacier Blue as well! Also, this isn't a drink I saw a lot of people order, but I love the Botanical Spritz  that is made with that Grapefruit Rose Infused Vodka. It's basically just vodka soda but I found it very refreshing after so many syrupy drinks. 

I loved that Grapefruit Rose Vodka, once I discovered it I had it ever night as a pre dinner cocktail. Glacier Blue was very good, and loved the Raspberry Guava Mojito as well. Another fave was the Thai Rum tonic at food republic, I had several with dinner there and they are huge.

 

On the Breakaway a few years ago I enjoyed the Lavender patch a lot, but I couldn’t get it when I tried in September on the Encore.

whenever I run out of the vodka I have at home, I'm getting the grapefruit rose vodka (I think it's Ketel One) Idk why it was so good as it's not enough a top shelf vodka, but I enjoyed it a lot

They had Drink of the Day available when we were on Dawn in December, including a Rebellious Fish for Monday 

[callmebetty]

Rebellious fish is lovely (I hope it's as good as I remember after 3 years!). I sometimes do the Mango Meltdown, but sub vodka for the Oakheart Rum. On the Escape they made me frozen mojitos with half the simple syrup, but not on the Gem.

There was also a Lavender martini at Shakers that was nice.

Peach Nectar, at the martini bar on the Breakaway.
