PG_Cruiser Posted April 12 Author #456 Share Posted April 12 MAI TAI Beach Bar Menu Perfect Day at Coco Cay NOTE: The dark rum and sweet & sour mix are not included in the ingredients list on the menus on Coco Cay. I'm not sure if they use a different recipe on the island. I decided to add these ingredients like they do on the ship. This cocktail is also on the menus at Coco Beach Club and Captain Jack's 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PG_Cruiser Posted April 14 Author #458 Share Posted April 14 HURRICANE Coco Cay Version Beach Bar Menu Perfect Day at Coco Cay NOTE: This is the first time I'm posting a copycat version of a Royal cocktail. From what I gather, Hurricane on Coco Cay has no grenadine. It also has ingredients that are different from those used onboard. I will edit the graphic when I get the actual recipe the bartenders use. While doing research on this, I found out that the original Hurricane was yellow because it only had rum, passion fruit syrup and lime juice. The red color came with the addition of grenadine in later versions. This cocktail is also on the menus at Coco Beach Club and Captain Jack's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread is saved in my notes and I've been coming back regularly. I've been picking and choosing some of the drinks to copy and paste into my prep notes for our next cruise(s). It's funny how, when I'm on board, I can never seem to remember all the drinks I seen in the past that I wanted to try, so I have to take notes. Thanks again for all this work, and someday I hope to be able to have one (or a few) of these drinks with you on board. 🍹 dp 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare RobInMN Posted April 18 #466 Share Posted April 18 Discovered a new tip: If you order a BBC (Banana Baileys Colada) in the MDR, the galley bar will make it with real banana! Yum!!

Yum!! If you like it with the banana liqueur, you'll love it with actual banana Sounds good! My wife has a hack for something similar... She grabs a banana from WJ or wherever and asks a bartender (usually at the Solarium Bar since that's where we lounge) if they would mind adding it to her strawberry daiquiri. No one has said no yet. It's a bit more like a smoothie but she's not really a drinker. And as an added bonus, the banana usually winds up producing more than one drink's worth so they usually give her the extra on the side. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yum!! If you like it with the banana liqueur, you'll love it with actual banana I didn't try it at the MDR but I did bring a banana to one of the bars on the pool deck on Grandeur in November last year. The bartender said he had to use banana liqueur because there was some "compliance audit" going on at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So.. After posting that, the BBC in the MDR changed. Tonight I asked the bar server if he would ask if the change was intentional or a different bartender or what, but the last 2 I had were definitely different than the many I had previously. Now they tasted just like what I get at Schooner or other bars. He came back and said it was entirely due to a change in the banana liqueur. They ran out of the previous brand. He said they did not put real banana in it the previous nights. I'm not sure I believe that. I don't think a change in liqueur brand alone would account for the change in texture. Not only was it a drastic change in the level of banana flavor, and I swear it tasted like real banana (not fake banana flavor), but it was more smoothly like, which also would have come from using a real banana, and not explained just by a change in liqueur brand. Also, the MDR one tasted different than any other bar I've gotten a BBC at in many cruises. Why would the MDR galley bar have a differ liqueur than any other bar on the ship (and many other ships). I've heard that if you can find a banana and take it to a bar, they will use it in a BBC, but I've never done it. I don't know what to believe. 😞 and don't want to steer anyone wrong. I don't know. 2 nights left. Not sure if I'll try again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PG_Cruiser Posted April 20 Author #473 Share Posted April 20 COCO LOCO Coco Cay's Signature Cocktail Perfect Day at Coco Cay NOTE: Although it's not on any menu, this signature cocktail is available at most, if not all, bars on Coco Cay. This recipe is based on the guide for Royal bartenders that came out in June 2023. It is a much simpler recipe using the Sunsational brand "Tropical Mix." Here is an (older) recipe for Coco Loco found online: 0.75 oz dark rum 0.75 oz coconut rum 0.5 oz cream of coconut 0.5 oz papaya juice 0.5 oz orange juice 0.5 oz pineapple juice 0.25 oz grenadine On Labadee, this same cocktail is served as the "Labadoozie." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will actually have a "bonus" bar called the "Bamboo Room" which is found only Mariner and Navigator. This bar has very unique cocktails. I haven't been able to make them yet because they have hard-to-find (and expensive) ingredients. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
