barbeyg Posted February 6, 2022 #1077 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Just placed an order for curbside pickup on my lunch hour tomorrow for several of the liquors at Total Wine. Discovered Ken has wiped out much of our orange liquors. 😂 And the citrus vodka. But he hasn’t used up my cake vodka, which is good. I can make a pineapple upside down cake martini tonight to ‘celebrate’ 🙄 the return to work tomorrow. Cheers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the Midori and peach schnapps but not sour apple. I need to get that Pama. I did get some Blue Curacao and triple sec to make Blue Curacao martini's. They are pretty good. Still can't find white cranberry anywhere to make the blue cosmo. I'll keep searching. Yep, everything ready except Pama. Even had Citron 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed the Curacao Cosmo that I tried. But looking back I guess I didn't enjoy it enough to have a second one. Cosmos and espresso martinis became my evening mainstay. Painkillers worked well in the afternoon. The new C&A voucher system has opened many more drink possibilities. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconut overpowered My bartender in the Champagne Lounge was really good at bringing out a subtle orange taste in the regular Cosmos that he made for me after trying to determine what sort of flavors I liked. It was a really nice drink. He truly was passionate about his craft. I've rarely encountered someone like him on a ship. Maybe he just had more time with the reduced capacity. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joand452 Posted February 7, 2022 #1099 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Is Giovanni’s Wine Bar where Vintages is on other Quantum-class ships? I’m guessing that Giovanni’s Kitchen is next door, where Jamie’s Italian is on Anthem. On the way to Two70°? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
