Adult beverages on the Fantasy...

[nswift]

Alright guys, what adult, or pay for beverages, are a must have on the Fantasy? Great cocktails worth the money? Delicious coffee drinks? Where are they watered down and we should save our money?

The champagne drinks at the champagne bar were very worth it, my wife and I went through a couple of Benjamins at that bar. The skyline bar has their drink passport that has some very good selections.

A must is a bottle of Moët Chandon Imperal Ice champagne by the pool one day. It's a very nice splurge, it's the only champagne made to poor over ice with a fruit wedge. You can only get it at the bar next to the adult pool. But you can get it by the glass, but a bottle is so much fun.

The "Raspberry Thrill" was my fav on the Dream last year.

Oh my goodness! We had a glass of Moët Chandon Imperial Ice champagne everyday on our last Dream cruise in the lounge before dinner. Such a guilty pleasure! So good! I swear the bartender was pouring it as we walked up to order once he saw us. LOL And we still chat about how we spent that time relaxing, sipping and playing cards with the kids before we would get ready for dinner.

I love the Moet Ice - so good and refreshing. A french martini is my go to MDR beverage. And if you like frozen drinks, I love the BBC. It's made with banana. Not the best for the waistline, but it's vacation!

we loved the passport in skyline. I forgot the details, but you pay $50ish for the passport and you get 6 or 7 drinks over the cruise. Hubby and I shared a passport, and we ended up repeating our favorite a few times (berries and vodka with a glow cube). There's also a 2nd drink card thing where you pay 1 price and get 1 signature drink in each of the bars. We also did a few different mixology-type classes which are fun and a good value

It wasn't until our sixth cruise that we got a cuppa at Cove Café. Wow, good stuff. We make a point to have an espresso in the afternoon during tea time to stretch the day to second seating dinner.

They also had 25 year old Glenfidditch...just saying.

The Konk Kooler is my favorite (notice my ID and avatar) - though not a high-end cocktail. I had two on Castaway Cay (In the big bamboo drink holder). One at the Castaway Air Bar at Serenity Beach and the other at Conched Out Bar. The one at Conched out was blended with less ice and more rum.

I don't think I ever have seen a watered down drink. They don't serve really cheap drinks but they don't skimp on the ingredients IMO.

We love the "coffee" in the Cove Cafe. My favourite is the mint mocha latte (espresso, creme de menthe, chocolate syrup). DH once ordered the Cafe Gates (IIRC - espresso, Galliano, Tia Maria and something else alcoholic) and asked for some milk in it. The server look at him appalled - "You can't put milk or cream in it. Here let me put some Bailey's in if you want it creamy". And proceeded to add it. Watered down it was not.

Yes, yes, yes. We were introduced to this a few years ago at the champagne tasting in Pink. I loved it so much we would go to Meridian at least once a day and the server started pouring as soon as she saw me walk in. She would serve it with a twist of lemon peel. I drank several bottles of it one glass at a time.

Cove Café made a wonderful espresso martini!!

LoL- it has made me a serious champagne snob. Several bottles a glass at a time is the best description!

What great suggestions! Thanks!

I ordered one at "Currents" which is a bar in the adult only area and also on Castaway Cay. You can check out all the drink menus here:

I also second what others have mentioned-the alcoholic coffee drinks from Cove Cafe are wonderful as well!!
