I want to try this one, but I usually don't drink gin. If I were to modify it, what would I replace it with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can try the liquor of your choice. I have posted some recipes with liquor and milk combinations - Brandy Alexander (Remy Martin VSOP), White Russian (vodka), The Eagle (cognac), to name a few.

dstein Posted May 25 #506 Share Posted May 25 @PG_Cruiser Just want to interrupt briefly to add my appreciation of your hard work to create and update this thread. The wife and I have been members of Shaker and Spoon (a "cocktail of the month" club) for 2+ years. In that time, we've sampled roughly 80 different cocktail recipes but managed to add only about 6 or 7 to our "yeah, we like that" list. After sampling about 40 of these recipes, we've already added about 15 of them to that list. Talk about value!! (We're actually rating these as "Yes, would pay for this on a cruise" vs "Would make again at home but won't pay for onboard" vs "Nope, not again".) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PG_Cruiser Posted May 29 Author #510 Share Posted May 29 KEOKE COFFEE Caffe Speciale con Liquore Giovanni's Table TRIVIA: I was intrigued by the unusual name for this coffee. I initially thought is came from Hawaii. But I've read that it was first named "George's Coffee" after its creator George Bullington at Bully’s Prime Rib (now closed) in Del Mar, California – just north of San Diego. At the suggestion of someone from Hawaii, it was renamed “Keoke," the Hawaiian word for “George.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PG_Cruiser Posted May 31 Author #512 Share Posted May 31 MOCHA BERRY Caffe Speciale con Liquore Giovanni's Table NOTE: The recipe I got did not have the measurement for the chocolate. It didn't even say what kind of chocolate to use. So I used the quantity from a similar recipe I found online. I'm guessing they use chocolate syrup on the ships. That's something to ask bartenders about on my next sailing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for doing this as I want to try everything from the Bamboo room and compare Royals recipes to Beachbum Berry's and Trader Vics recipes. Yes I don't even want to add up how much I have spent on Rum, Syrups, Specialty Liqueurs, juices and bitters not to mention Tiki Mugs and Tiki Glassware. It can be an expensive hobby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other thing to get is some great glass sipping straws from Surfside Sips. https://www.surfsidesips.com/?ref=llbmubmq&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjw6uWyBhD1ARIsAIMcADq5pbYu4-02ZHkNLg4W2_Q_CCznV6HgTaKsp3ohJs5UmR_GxHxiOz4aAhBOEALw_wcB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PG_Cruiser Posted June 10 Author #524 Share Posted June 10 SATURN LANDING Specialty Cocktails The Bamboo Room NOTE: While they're on the menu, the Velvet Falernum and the St Elizabeth Allspice Dram were not in the recipe. (I will have to ask bartenders in the Bamboo Room about that.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sea Dog Posted June 10 #525 Share Posted June 10 I love a good Saturn. I would imagine without the All Spice and Falernum it isn’t even a Saturn or even taste close to one. Why would they advertise those ingredients but not use them? I know Royal doesn’t want to stock those specialty liquors but hey make the cocktail right!
