Royal Caribbean Cocktail Recipes


Recommended Posts

Tremendous job!  I'm saving this post for future reference.
 

I made a photo book with my sisters' and my favorite drink recipes.  I used Shutterfly and it came out really well.  I had fun experimenting with the recipes too but it got pricey. 😄

 

My book included Royal Caribbean's Lavender Daiquiri.  I couldn't get the Monin syrup so I ended up making my own lavender simple syrup with food-grade lavender flowers that I ordered from Amazon.  I will try your version and see how it compares to the copy-cat version I found online.

Did you mean you made a photo book with my photo recipes?  I've been wanting to do that.

 

No, I made a photo book out of some of my sisters' and my favorite drink recipes.  Most of them are from our trips and travels so there are a couple from cruises.

 

Here's a link, if you'd like to see it.  One of my sisters likes to watercolor so I used her paintings instead of photographs.

You should definitely make a photobook of your recipes!  It would make such a fantastic souvenir or gift.  You could use pictures from your cruises too, not just pictures of the drinks.

NOTE:
Royal bartenders use the "Passion Fruit Guava Base" for this cocktail and many others.  

 

It's equal parts of:
Passion Fruit Syrup
Guava Syrup
Pineapple Juice
Lime Juice


Question, the recipe calls for 3/8oz and you say 1/2oz. There is an obvious difference there. Do the bartenders use 1/2oz? 3/8oz is tough to measure but basically a barspoon is equal to 1/8th. I’m sure curious if you can taste the difference?

The bartenders use a pre-mixed Passion Fruit Guava Base as I stated in the NOTE. So they don’t have to worry about measuring 3/8 or 1/2 oz of each ingredient.

For this recipe, they put 1 1/2 oz of the base.

 

The 1/2 you see is for the lemon juice, which is not part of the base.

 

If you have the pre-mixed base, this is the recipe:

 

1 1/2 oz Rye Whiskey

1 1/2 oz Passion Fruit Guava Base

 1/2 oz Lemon Juice

Got it thanks. I’m going to make this tonight. I had a hard time finding the Guava purée but finally found some.

If you have a Total Wine store in your area, they have a good selection of flavors. (Guess who arranged those for the picture lol)

This is the cheat sheet the Royal bartenders use.

Just got our first total wine here in Kansas City. Need to get there. I ended up finding it at a Whole Foods store. 
 

Hey did you ever post Royals version of the Mai Tai? I’m curious how good it is. As a tiki freak I love the authentic tiki recipes.

Mai Tai is coming soon.  It goes with the Lime and Coconut menu.  Here's a sneak peek just for you.  Please don't show it to anyone.

No problem. Thanks! I have experimented with several Mai Tai recipes. There is no way Royal can do some of the original Victor Jules Bergeron recipe from Trader Vic’s recipe. I follow as a tiki nut Kevin Crossman’s website  https://ultimatemaitai.com/about/the-ultimate-mai-tai/

 

where he has created the closest original Mai Tai recipe:

Ultimate Mai Tai Recipe
½ oz Appleton Estate Rare Casks Aged 12 Years
½ oz Smith & Cross Traditional Jamaica Rum
½ oz Plantation OFTD
½ oz Plantation Xaymaca 
1 oz Lime Juice
½ oz Orgeat (Latitude 29)
½ oz Orange Curacao (Ferrand Dry Curacao)
¼ oz Demerara Syrup (BG Reynolds)
Garnish with mint sprig and spent lime shell
 

This recipe is awesome and I highly recommend it. I am anxious to try Royal’s version and compare.
