Notquite50 Posted July 17, 2016 #1 Share Posted July 17, 2016 So what's your favorite drink on the Summit? Are there any speciality cocktails that are to die for?:D (it seems very wrong that I am posting this questions at 8:00am on a Sunday Morning before church) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbbandit Posted July 17, 2016 #2 Share Posted July 17, 2016 I think my favorite is a toss up between the Mudslide and Rum Swizzle. We even brought back a bottle of the goslings gold seal rum. If we knew how hard it is to find that rum here at home would have brought back a few bottles. We are going again next September that's how much fun we had. Still trying to duplicate the ingredients for the mudslide. The bar at the pool put some sort of liquor on top and I can't remember what it was. Tried chambord but that's not it. We were just on the Summit the end of May and had a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puppyluv1 Posted July 17, 2016 #3 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Frozen aspen coffee but have to agree the mudslides are really yummy too. Got my sister hooked on the frozen aspen last year and she texted me on the way to the port a few weeks ago to remind her of the name. She was dreaming about that first one after boarding!

madibeme Posted July 17, 2016 #4 Share Posted July 17, 2016 We are on a tour bus on our way to the summit and just had a discussion about that. The 25th anniversary martini without a doubt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k-chart Posted July 17, 2016 #5 Share Posted July 17, 2016 I loved the Fresca Martini at the Martini Bar - I'm not a traditional martini kind of person but it was delicious and very refreshing/light. Also, one night I asked to be surprised with something with an umbrella in it and our waiter brought me a drink (I think he made it up!) and called it the Anatolian Delight! It was a little too sweet for me (coconut/blue curaçao/pineapple) but definitely made me feel like I was on vacation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champagne Cruiser Posted July 17, 2016 #6 Share Posted July 17, 2016 During the day I like the Frozen Mango Daiquiris and they taste just as good without the alcohol! I have tried almost all the different Martinis (it was a tough assignment but someone had to do it!). Before dinner I like the Appletini and for dessert the Chocolate.

Notquite50 Posted July 17, 2016 Author #7 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Mmm...they all sound delicious. I will have to definitely have to try the mudslide. I'm not a martini girl but with the premium package I am willing to give them a second or third or fourth try. I remember on RC there was a pina colada with strawberry daiquiri drizzled on top. All this talk I think I just might have to make a frozen cocktail and take it outside here in NJ and just pretend I am on a cruise ship with someone making me dinner.

Pretty sure beside the rum they put a little Kahlua to add a litttle ooomph. DW the mudslide maveness just chipped in on that. Usually 2 at the Solarium pool and 2 at sailaway every day makes her a happy camper. Pool waiter always kidding her that they were low caloric (ha!) This was on Equinox and Reflection but must be the same fleet wide. She is also partial to the Bon Voyage. It's a little tropical but bing badda boom hits you with a punch. I usually have a Pina Colada at the pool and a mudslide later at sailaway. It's nice getting that complimentary drink package.

DrivesLikeMario Posted July 17, 2016 #9 Share Posted July 17, 2016 The absolute best strawberry daiquiris I've ever had were on the Summit. The banana daiquiris are good too but the peach isn't IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pamkev Posted July 17, 2016 #11 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Frozen aspen coffee but have to agree the mudslides are really yummy too. Got my sister hooked on the frozen aspen last year and she texted me on the way to the port a few weeks ago to remind her of the name. She was dreaming about that first one after boarding! I never knew they can make the aspen coffee frozen. Could you get this at any bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually 2 at the Solarium pool and 2 at sailaway every day makes her a happy camper. Pool waiter always kidding her that they were low caloric (ha!) I also love a good mudslide. But there's no rum in a mudslide. It's vodka, Kahlua, and Bailey's. Would love to read about what the Aspen Coffee is.:):):) I like the Nutty Irishman coffee on Princess.

cbbandit Posted July 18, 2016 #14 Share Posted July 18, 2016 The bar at the pool put just a little splash of some sort of either coffee liquor or something cherry. We just don't remember what it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare teacherman Posted July 23, 2016 #17 Share Posted July 23, 2016 To me, the best drinks are the "free" ones at the Elite happy hour. And always remember to tip the servers, as it will usually get you prompt service and a "better" drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We get the cafe aspen at cafe al bacio before dinner almost every night. I have never heard of a frozen one! Are those available by the pool during the day or do you need to go to bacio?

Cruise a holic Posted July 24, 2016 #19 Share Posted July 24, 2016 (edited) I enjoy a French Martini prepared best at the Martini Bar. My DH really enjoyes a chocolate Martini also. At the pool, I enjoy a Miami Vice and my DH enjoys a mudslide- but they are all so fattening! Enjoy Edited July 24, 2016 by Cruise a holic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
