Coffee Martini

[ravenjls]

Can you do a coffee or espresso martini using liquors in the regular free at sea plan?  Tito's, Kahlua and Maloney's Irish cream plus coffee.  I hate to pay the extra 3.60 per drink when the alcohol in my package is acceptable.

I don’t believe so.  You’re paying for the espresso, not the liquor.  Espresso isn’t included in the regular FAS drink package.

So, I gotta ask, if I have the specialty coffee package and the FAS, is it doable? I ran across a list of drinks that I want to try and the Espresso Martini was one of them.

That I don’t know.  I’ve never gotten the Starbucks package.  I would assume it would be covered by the Starbucks package, but I don’t know for sure.  Maybe someone else does.

 

For what it’s worth, I found the espresso martini to be worth every penny of the $3.60 upcharge.  😃

This sounds like a plan. I’ll have to see what happens. 😁

Is it an espresso, or a martini? If it's a martini, it's covered by the drink package up to the FAS limit.

Just ask the bartender. It may not be the specific brand, but the amount of alcohol. Or, as alluded to above, the price may be because it includes espresso.

It’s an espresso martini.  It costs $18 all across the ship, as far as I know.  So with the FAS basic drink package it costs $3.60.  $3 plus a 20% gratuity.  I’ve bought many of them.  😂

It exceeds the Premium Beverage Package. If you want it, there will be a supplemental charge. Starbucks will not make a martini for you.

Ugh! For me, a martini is gin, vermouth and an olive.

No I got that, if you reread my question I was asking if I substitute the plus liquor with the premium liquor could they make one without the upcharge.  I see from responses that the upcharge is for the starbucks espresso not just the licquor.
