JuneauWhatIMean Posted February 17, 2006 #1 Share Posted February 17, 2006 I don't know about you guys, but Tugger's posts really make me thirsty. :D I hate the watered-down versions of martinis and cosmopolitans served at bars and, I assume, on cruises. My DH and I keep our Skyy in the freezer. We also keep our martini glasses in the freezer after adding a little water in the bottom. No need for shaking or stirrring which waters down the vodka. The ice in the bottom has barely melted by the time you're finished. I go for cosmos and he likes a martini with a couple of sprays of vermouth on top and an onion on a pick. Yummmmmmm:p So what's your fav? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aloanldy Posted February 17, 2006 #2 Share Posted February 17, 2006 The Martini's in the Martini Bar on the ship are pretty tasty and i've never had one watered down. I prefer mine in a glass! :D I love a good dirty Martini. Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mferranti Posted February 17, 2006 #7 Share Posted February 17, 2006 I ask for Daresbury Quintessential gin with a twist. Last month on Infinity I got them to make me Vodka Stingers in Martini Bar portions when we went for after-dinner drinks. Those were good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halos Posted February 18, 2006 #9 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Any martini is good but I do love a good Cosmo...a GOOD one; the kind that has 2 parts citron, one part triplesec, one part lime juice and one part cranberry juice. Yeah......3 shots in one FROZEN glass (NO ice shaking!!) two of those and my lips go numb....nice :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reklawr Posted February 18, 2006 #15 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Hi Astrid! We sure did enjoy martinis every evening with you and Bob and I do wish we were on your cruise. We plan on doing the Summit to Hawaii in 2008. That will be our 25th Anniversary. I'm actually thinking of trying to get 8181. BTW we took a real liking to the Vanilla Martini....We shake a few every once in a while using Skyy Vanilla vodka. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to have an over abundance of Skyy Vanilla and that sounds perfect! My initial answer is on a ship in the martini bar but if Roy's recipe works then I may have to change my mind!

Rare uktog Posted February 18, 2006 #22 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Oh the Appeltini and the Peach one - was that cosmopolitan and the watermelon one I love that. Some mornings I do wish the night befores had been watered down :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you looking forward to that Martini bar on the Mercury? We miss you and will have to see what we can work out. March of '07 is too far away!
