HBE4 Posted December 8, 2021 #4 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Not necessarily my "cruise drink" - which tends to be many across a wide variety - but the first drink is usually tropical, like a coconut mojito. Or whatever the Drink of the Day/Sailaway special is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smplybcause Posted December 8, 2021 #8 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Lava flow is always my first drink. Well except on carnival they don't know what it is/can't make it. But it's first on royal, ncl, and msc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Royal my first drink is usually a frozen mojito. A lava flow (anywhere that does it right) is a Pina colada with strawberry syrup. A Miami vice is half Pina colada half strawberry daiquiri. Similar, but a daiquiri has lime in it - so a lava flow is missing the lime. Also I think because the Miami vice is frozen it doesn't have a strong of a strawberry flavor as a lava flow, but maybe that's just the lime making it not as strong? On carnival best I could tell was they only had strawberry daiquiri syrup and not just strawberry syrup so their lava flow was just a Miami vice heavy on the Pina colada because they just added strawberry daiquiri syrup instead of frozen strawberry daiquiri. It was not a lava flow and I never ordered it again for the rest of the cruise. To be fair the bartender said she could make me something close to a lava flow not a lava flow. BTW there are some places/bartenders that think they're they same, but they're just making a Miami vice and calling it was lava flow.

I have only been on one Carnival Cruise and despite me explaining what one was, they didn’t/couldn’t/wouldn’t make one properly. They taste sooo good and as a bonus they are pretty to look at.

cruiseguy1016 Posted December 8, 2021 #25 Share Posted December 8, 2021 I started this tradition on my first cruise in 2001 and have done it on every cruise since. When I get on the ship, the first place I go is the Pool Bar to order a Bahama Mama. I have always said that that drink puts me in "cruise mode".
