Sunday 5/26 on ncl JOY nyc to Bermuda Margarita question

[expectthebest]

Hello Critics:

Sailing this Sunday on JOY R/T NYC Bermuda.. 

it will be our first time on the JOY.. 

We have the standard booze package up to $15 I believe. Is there a particular bar / area to get a good classic margarita? Or is it hit or miss when we belly up to the assortment of bars on the ship.

We are in an inside suite with virtual balcony if that matters.

 

Anyone just off in the last couple months that may have had a terrific margarita while onboard?

 

In my head that’s all I’m thinking about to be able to relax and unplug from life for the week. I’m also partial to good mojitos as well..

 

thanks in advance!!!!

 

Best,

Mark

wrt margaritas, every bar has the same alcohol, every bar has the same mixers. It all comes down to the bartender. Bartenders work split shifts and sometimes work at multiple bars. And after your first 7 margaritas of the day, even the bartender won't matter. 

 

You could select a premium tequila if you want. But again, after the first 9 margaritas before lunch, even that won't really matter. 

 

wrt Mojitos, you can go to the Sugarcane Mojito bar and start at the top of the menu, work your way down to the bottom, then restart at the top, each day of your cruise.

OP, Great advice from @BirdTravels about the Mojito Bar!  Work your way through that menu and see what you want to go back for.  It was a favorite for us on the Joy.

 

Hope you have a wonderful cruise😎
