As Auntie Mame (Dennis) said "Always stir, never shake, it bruises the gin." Thanks for the info, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sueseb Posted August 27, 2006 #5 Share Posted August 27, 2006 DH still raves about the Dirty Martinis (Tanquery) in the martini bar on the Mercury several years ago. Of course, Ursula, the bartender was also an attraction!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Tart Posted August 27, 2006 #6 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I almost had a heart attact a few years ago when aboard the Navigator. My DH and I always went to the martini bar for a pre-dinner cocktail, and the waiter decided to put on a bit of a show with the bottle of Grey Goose, and guess what? Yup, down it crashed! :eek: He just smiled and carried on.....:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Cruise4Ever Posted August 27, 2006 #7 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Star Bar on NCL's Dawn with bartender Gedde. It was a martini clinic: 5 martinis for $10. He gave the history of the martini and showed us how to make 5 different kinds. That's when I fell in love with the appletini and the cosmo. And, what a show it was!!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavkc Posted August 27, 2006 #8 Share Posted August 27, 2006 The Platinum Club on Millennium - a peach martini was my absolute favourite - bit expensive though at $10 each Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nliedel Posted August 27, 2006 #9 Share Posted August 27, 2006 RCI had a martini tasting. I really enjoyed that. Not sure how the ones after the first one tasted though. I was pretty sauced. I'm a cheap drunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
