What's your favorite Cruise drink?

Cucumber Sunrise at the Alchemy Bar.

[Moviela]

Guy walks up to the bar and says "I'll have a piña colada." The bartender goes to work, and says "What will your husband have?"

 

I like an XO Cognac before dinner, a Cabernet with dinner, and a Bahama Mama with a show. In the Punchliner I have a watermelon martini, because it tastes funny.

It was the spicy chipotle pineapple martini but last cruise that got beat out by the cucumber sunrise and the basil drop at Alchemy.

I have a drink package for the first time and am looking forward to trying drinks I’ve never had.  Not just typical cruise ones, either.  I’ve never had a Manhattan nor an Old-Fashioned, and I definitely intend to try both.  I wish I could remember some of the drinks I’ve meant to try over the years, but I can’t…

If your ship has an Alchemy bar, recommend stopping there for your first Old-Fashioned. They have a Rum Old Fashioned on the menu, but will happily make you a classic bourbon one with Woodford. And they make them very, very well at Alchemy!

If you like rum you can't go wrong with a Funship!

Thank you!

 

I already know to get my first Bloody Mary at Guy’s Pig & Anchor, hold the bacon (because I’m vegetarian).

Watermelon martini.  Actually my real favorite is a special concoction from Jennifer on the Mardi Gras when she was at the Alchemy bar, but the watermelon martini is my favorite regular offering.

Love the Twilight  Zone! I also like to alternate sips of a margarita and a Funship!  The sweet and sour go excellent together!

The cucumber sunrise is my absolute favorite. When I want something super sugary I like the Miami Vice. The hurricane daiquiris are so good as well as pomtinis at the atrium bar. 
 

first drink of the cruise is always a fun ship though and it’s so much better with a squeeze of lime.

Ok this is going to sound absolutely absurd, but do they actually TASTE like cucumbers and basil?  I LOVE to EAT cukes and love basil as a seasoning but not sure I want to DRINK them! 😛  Has anyone had Pirate Punch?

I have the Cheers package and on my last cruise (Bermuda) my wife and I loved trying all kinds of new drinks . I'm normally a beer guy and not much for straight liquor but when cruising it feels more like vacation to stick to mixed drinks. We also have fun making sure we drink enough throughout the day to make the Cheers package worth it. Can't wait to sit at the Havana bar and try different ones out.

 

So far my favorite was a Rum based drink that i cant remember the name of but I think was similar to the Zombie Cocktail. Suggestions for what else I should try?

BBC or a Bushwacker

[TN Roz]

Blues Blue Margarita, Funship  and anything from Alchemy Bar.

[MagnoliaBlossom]

Morning-  Bellini or Peach  mimosa 

Afternoon drinks - Kiss on the slips or Aperol Spritz (so sassy looking)

Happy hour - Manhattan or WhiskeySour

after Dinner - white Russian or Chocolate Martini

[Joe817]

First drink when I step on the ship, a Funship Special. After that...a Funship Special. After that.... anything that has alcohol in it!

All of these. I don't know if it's just because it's usually my first drink to start vacation, and I'm in a super good mood. However, that Blue's Patron Margarita may be one of my favorite margaritas anywhere.

Actually if I didn't know cucumber was in the cucumber sunrise I wouldn't have guessed it was. The basil drop just faintly not overpowering at all. They taste so refreshing in the evening after the usual super sweet drinks that I drink poolside.

One of my favorites is the tiramisu and also a chocolatini

 

I normally don't drink at all, but I looked up the tiramisu cocktail after I read your post and I think I'm going to have to start drinking!😉
