Drink Menu for Glacier Bay

[azappraiser]

Curious if NCL still has a "Specialty Drink" menu for Glacier Bay sailings... the attachment is what was offered on the Pearl in Sept 2011.

 

The Grizzly Bear was absolutely delicious... warmed the insides too... perfect for viewing Marjorie Glacier during the slow turn...

We did not have this on the Encore early July

The Encore didn’t have anything special on the two Alaskan cruises I did last summer. The Jewel has a special drinks menu for Haven and Suites guests that is served up on the Haven sundeck by invite only. From last year to this year the menu was cut in half.

 

The Spirit didn’t have any special drinks but they set up a seafood chowder station on the pool deck.

 

The Jewel also sets up a Sundae station and the Cruise Director and GM scoop the ice cream and make the Glacier Sundaes.

 

Margerie glacier is my favourite!

Do they put a fishing net out, grab some floating broken-off glacier ice and put it in the drinks?

Wouldn't that be cool...

 

I guess I'll just have to take a copy of the menu with me and see what our Haven bartender can whip up.  My wife had the Alaskan Snow Plow... that was mighty tasty too.

They did exactly that when we were north and took the Kenai Fjords tour.  Granted it’s a tourist boat and not a ship, but it was very cool.

This was pre-Covid…

They just did the bergy bit pulled out of the ocean on the Hubbard Glacier excursion on the Spirit last week. We have also experienced this through Major Marine out of Seward into the Kenai Fjords.

But they did have salmon chowder out by the pool which was actually pretty good. 

Such warm weather we had.

We've had small tour boats do this... but never seen it done lately on a cruise ship.

Those drinks look amazing. I'm printing it out and seeing if they have any available when we go in August. (Not going to Glacial Bay.) More to add to my lengthening "Drinks to Try" list! 🙃

we had the same menu in 2012 on the Pearl - tried the AK Snowplow - yummmm.

Back in our skiing days (aka, when we still had functional knees) our favorite drink at Keystone was a “snuggler”. Hot chocolate, white rum, white crème de cacao and a splash of peppermint schnapps.   Went down easy and certainly warmed all those frozen parts.
