Does the Dream have a passport as well?

I don't know, but I am guessing someone will be along with that information. The martinis are really, really tasty.

Agree!

I did the passport on the Fantasy as a way to try some different things I might not have tried otherwise. And I loved that you could get whatever you wanted from the specialty menu and didn't have to get all different things so that if you found something you liked and could tell from ingredients you wouldn't like something you didn't have to get it.

We know we are on a Disney Cruise once we've had a Paradise! They are delicious! We also loved the Blue Tang that we had in one of the clubs on the Magic! Yum!

The BBC became my go-to when I was in the mood for a drink that wasn't exactly macho.

Yes, I agree with PP that $50 won't go very far. It would cover a bottle of wine with dinner, or the martini Passport in the Skyline on the Fantasy, which I highly recommend.

I must ask, what is this Passport? I've only sailed on the Fantasy twice and I've done tastings in Skyline but obviously missed this. Very curious!

Thank you! This is great to know now for our sailing in August.

Isn't that also called the "Miami Vice"?

Yes, I've always known the pina colada/strawberry daiquiri combo as a Miami Vice. I first had one out in Vegas by the pool at the Flamingo Hotel. Seemed like an appropriate drink for that locale.

i think we found out about this on day 4 or 5 and had no problem getting through all the countries. DH and I shared a passport. Hopefully Julian will be the bartender, he is awesome. He ran our Mixology class and made some of the best drinks I have ever had.

Do you remember the cost?

Julian was at Skyline when you were there? He was at La Piazza when I cruised in February. Just solidifying what another bartender told me about DCL rotating them around.

Just to reiterate, you don't have to hit every country for the passport - it's just 7 drinks for the price of 5 from the specialty menu.

I had the Paris one with the lighted cube at least twice.

Maybe $60 or $70, I remember thinking it was a good deal. I think it works out to one free drink? DH and I loved the Skyline, we would drop DD at the nursery, have a drink or two, and meet DS at the MDR for dinner.

I JUST pitched my account printout from Feb, but for some reason $57.95 is sounding about right...

Yes we sailed the first week in January and he was there. I think we hit a few countries twice too.

Very interesting. I forget the bartender's name in Skyline as I tended to interact with the servers. I know Julian was at La Piazza because he did our Italian Cocktail tasting there and was quite proud of "his" bar.

He was there doing our sign ups also on the first day.

@DisneyPups were your pregnant with the baby in your avatar - that is the cutest thing ever.

Haha no, (but thanks!) that is my first Disney fan. She is now 3yo. My second arrived 11 days ago and was "on" the cruise w/my mom, daughter and me in Dec for a girls only trip for my mom's 65th and my daughter's last hurrah as an only child. I treated them both to the smoothies I mentioned (mango & chocolate) and they were a huge hit.

Julian told us they rotate them every 3 weeks, but he's been our Skyline tender every time we've been on the Fantasy, so we've been lucky.

I should post the pile of cubes I have in the tiki fountain...

The Eco Tini is my one must have drink every cruise. The sunken treasure is really good too.

I really enjoyed a Tropical Depression (tried it first during a Mixology class). Also, the Coffee Toledo in Cove Cafe was great.

Disney would never name a drink after a show that was on NBC.
