nybumpkin Posted September 27, 2014 #2 Share Posted September 27, 2014 They had it several times on Miracle in July. My personal favorite is the spicy chipotle martini. In addition to the sampler selection you can order any of them full-size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splintz Posted September 27, 2014 #3 Share Posted September 27, 2014 -the miracle should still have it. -i didn't drink them my wife did so i can't help you with which ones are good. -what i remember is they are offered in the early evening around dinner time. the time will be in the fun times. -the tasting is at the jeeves lobby lounge. the bar on the promenade deck 2 all the way aft by the dining room and next to the night club. -it was $17 and my wife liked it. you pick 4 martinis but they are half the size of a normal martini.

I am going to try it at home too:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dapaddo Posted September 27, 2014 #5 Share Posted September 27, 2014 What other flavors do they have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbie Posted September 27, 2014 #6 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Does anyone know if the Sunshine have a tasting? I tried one on NCL back in April, and it was lots of fun. The Mojito tasting was fun, but not as tasty as the martini tasting. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splintz Posted September 27, 2014 #7 Share Posted September 27, 2014 here is a link for the menu http://www.zydecocruiser.net/menus/martini.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLangley Posted September 27, 2014 #8 Share Posted September 27, 2014 My wife and I did the "martini tour" aboard the fantasy..... It was awesome!!! They were all tasty, but the bartender threw in one of his own creations and it rocked!! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pulledporky Posted September 27, 2014 #9 Share Posted September 27, 2014 We had it on the Miracle last March. For us it was OK at best. They were all pre-made in the plastic jugs. Nothing special but for $17 you should try it for yourself. You also get a little trinket charm with the order.

Rare CruisinCrow Posted September 27, 2014 #10 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I did the martini tasting on Paradise and Victory. The menu on those ships was different than the one Zydecocruiser posted. Here's a pic. My favorites were the Florida Squeeze and the Spicy Chipotle. On our last cruise (on Sensation), I just ordered a regular sized Spicy Chipotle. Yummy! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CruisinCrow Posted September 27, 2014 #11 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Here is Silvia on Carnival Victory. She could pour all 8 martinis at one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momof3cruisers Posted September 28, 2014 #13 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Even though they are little glasses, they do fill them right to the top. We split it four ways and each picked one. Then we traded around to taste them. (Sisters...we don't worry about each other's germs.) it was fun and a great way to sample four drinks to see if you like them.

Linda the Book Lover Posted September 28, 2014 #15 Share Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) Does anyone know if the Sunshine have a tasting? I tried one on NCL back in April, and it was lots of fun. The Mojito tasting was fun, but not as tasty as the martini tasting. Thanks, This is from the Imagination not the same as NCL. On NCL there was a crowd and large martini glasses. I had 5 different Martinis. On the Imagination it was "tasting" glasses and you went to the bar during a set time. Good drinks in small glasses but not as much fun as the large group of clapping martini revelers ;) Edited September 28, 2014 by Linda the Book Lover typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funinthesun1964 Posted September 28, 2014 #16 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I try to go to martini tasting every ship. I really enjoy it. Now whether I get there or not is another story. Seems like there is always something to do on the ship. I get to taste 4 different martinis. But here is picture of my martini tasting in July, On Fantasy. I discovered a new one that I really enjoyed. The one on the far left...I believe it was called a melon crush? It was the one I had last, maybe that is why it tasted so good. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funinthesun1964 Posted September 28, 2014 #17 Share Posted September 28, 2014 And here is the martini tasting on the Victory. I was proud of the prize I had just won over at trivia. I remember this time I definitely did get the little charms and pamphlet, but the one I on the Fantasy I didn't. I really didn't care though, as I already had that stuff from previous tastings. It's a lot fun, be sure to watch in the Fun Times what times and location where it is offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maureencruiser Posted September 28, 2014 #18 Share Posted September 28, 2014 ^^ Hi Brenda! ^^ Here is the martini tasting on the Sunshine, my favorite was the spicy pineapple chipotle , as well. Each martini is individually made, not large plastic jugs premade. Miro did pour them all out at once, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funinthesun1964 Posted September 29, 2014 #19 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Hi Maureen! That spicy chipotle one IS very good also! I remember we also did the martini tasting on the Liberty (but I must have not taken any pictures). It was the updated Alchemy bar. Anyway, I tried one called lavender something, and it tasted like soap :eek: Don't get that one. I have never had one of the bartenders pour all of them at once though...not that I can remember anyway. I see people with pictures of that and it is so cool!

funinthesun1964 Posted September 29, 2014 #20 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Found the picture from the Martini Tasting on the Liberty! I remember now that bartender we had - he wasn't very friendly. He said he was getting ready to go home within a couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
