Your Favorite "Martini Bar" Drink(s)?

[need2cruisesoon]

Gosh darn it I really love this place, I hope this bar lives on forever including EDGE Class.

 

Sorry for the menu pics, taken with my IPhone. (Pictures from Solstice)

 

Tell me your favorite???

Our favourite place on our Solstice cruise from Auckland to Sydney, November last year. We boarded at 11.30 and our first stop was the Martini Bar and this is where my first photo was taken. The martinis were that good we stayed at the bar till 2.00pm and then went to lunch, and then came back for more every afternoon before dinner and then after dinner. Looking forward to the Martini Bar on the Eclipse in August and will probably skip the special Concierge lunch just to spend more time at this fantastic bar

We liked the blue and almond joy. Both very tasty.

Blue Wave for me, but it differs considerably depending who makes it.

It's 10 AM and those pictures are making my mouth water. i have a month to wait, but will share my opinion when I return...if I can remember what I drank.

I like the sweet dessert ones - chocolate martini, black forest and an off-menu one Creme Brûlée. I had brought in my own personal recipe for Creme Brûlée and the bartender shrugged his shoulders and said he'd make it but he'd also make me *his* version. His was better. Not sure if they all make it but it's good and the surprising ingredient of pineapple juice made it. I figured it used butterscotch schnapps or something but no.

 

Sunset martini is good and their pomegranate martini is good if they make it a bit sweeter.

 

My husband always orders their appletini. Says it's better there than anywhere else on the ship.

Almond Joy on Celebrity, Aztec Martini on Royal (if I can find a bartender who can make it).

My favourite is candied apple yum yum

[drakes2]

Mine is the Tanned Russian from the Molecular Bar on the Silhouette. I wonder if they will still make it since it's now going to be the World Class Bar. It sure was delicious with the toasted coconut on the top. :)

Not positive. Still have a couple to finish. Trying to drink the whole menu. It has taken a couple cruises. Love the 25th though

The Fresca is mine, very refreshing!

[NCHPcruiser]

Surprisingly I like the Blue Martini (usually not a fan of blue drinks) and the chocolate martini's are wonderful too (better than the ones my husband makes)! I immediately bought Hpnotiq upon returning from our last cruise and have tried with limited success to duplicate the ones I enjoyed on the Reflection and Silhouette. White cranberry juice is very hard to find! Looking forward to both drinks aboard the Equinox in September!

[Desertbelle]

On the Reflection in April I drank quite a few Cucumber Basil martinis....so good and so refreshing. I miss them so much!

Pomegranate Martini, Blue Martini and Cherry Lane, depending on my mood at the time.

I'd just post the menu from the Martini Bar. :D

 

And I'd add in the Crème Brûlée as well!

We read about this but the bar men at the Martini Bar on Eclipse a few weeks back had ever heard of it.

Grey Goose with ONE drop (only) of Scotch. The Best if made by Putu

My favorite is a classic martini. I have it made with Pravda vodka and served with two blue cheese stuffed olives. To make sure I have blue cheese stuffed olives, I bring my own!

 

On the first afternoon of the cruise, I go to the Martini Bar and get a double shot of Pravda vodka to go. I take it back to the cabin. I take the jar of olives and pour out the brine and pour in the vodka and put the top back on.

 

On the next visit to the Martini Bar, I ask for the martini with blue cheese stuffed olives. They say they do not have any prepared. At that point, I bring out mine. It always brings a laugh from the bartenders. They will keep the olives just for me in their bar fridge.

We're no fans of sweet drinks. Well, we have been known to have a pina colada or a strawberry daiquiri by the pool. But no sweet drinks in the evenings. Until we sat down at the Martini Bar one night and on a whim I ordered a Banana Split Martini. My wife took a sip and immediately ordered one for herself. Then we ordered more. Wow. It became a nightly ritual.

I love a Chistiana vodka martini. The martini bar is one of the only places I can find it.

[ShawninFL]

I have 2 favorites. 1. Cherry Lane - which is stillmon the menu and 2 - x-rated martini which is no longer on the menu.

I LOVED the blue martini too! and also bought Hpnotiq too! Sadly though; i don't recall exactly what's in it. If you can share, I'd be VERY grateful! (I wrote down the ingredients one night but as I was on my second one, its a bit illegible :)

Blue Martini for me, too.

Some Wal Mart stores carry white cranberry juice as well as some Kroger stores. You can find a list on the Ocean Spray web site.
