Could anyone tell me how much the martini,margarita and mixology tastings are, how many and what drinks they made? (fantasy)
I did the tequila/margarita tasting. It was $15 pp. We got 3 half shots of Patron tequila (silver, anejo & reposado) plus a sangrita. Then we had 2 FULL SIZE margaritas. The margaritas were a mango margarita and a Grand Marnier Margarita. They teach you all about the history of tequila & how its made. I was really feeling it after this.
Mixology was also $15 pp and it was tons of fun. We each made about 4 drinks each then we had the chance to step behind the bar to make a martini. Tons of alcohol and another one that had me tipsy afterwards.
I have never done the tastings but I am looking forward to it on my upcoming cruise. I was just curious if the tip is included in the $15 or are you supposed to tip on top of that?
Until this moment I have never thought of tipping at a tasting. I will admit if I was pleased at the tasting I went to the bartender's bar later in the cruise, sitting at the bar and ordering directly from him/her and tipping generously then.
You had me at Patron....
I would also like to know when the tastings are offered. Are they all offered at the same time & you choose which "group" you would like to be in?
TIA!
ALL sounds great!No they are on different days so you can go to them all if you want.
I did mixology on our dream cruise last week with Oscar the bartender. We made a shot called B-52 (which I loved and became known as mommy's happy drink for the rest of the cruise ) I had one every day after that. We also made mojito, margarita and two kinds of martini. We all got a full shot, a small cup of both martinis and margaritia and a taste of mojito. It was alot of fun. I would have liked to have done the wine tasting but they only offered one and it was at like 1pm. Too early for wine for me.
