Kick Start Your Day beverage tasting

[dkis4nu]

Has anyone ever signed up for this? Mimosas, Bloody Mary’s etc. It’s on Embarkation Day at 2:00, after lunch & before your luggage gets to the room. We have it booked, but would like some reviews.
Thanks

I did this one on the Fantasy a couple years ago and wrote down everything we had. It was three (nonalcoholic) smoothies from the Senses juice bar, a basic mimosa, and a bloody mary.

The three smoothies were:
"Get Up": Strawberry, banana, sunflower seeds, almond milk, blueberries, turmeric
"Juice Tonic": Bananas, chia seed, apples, kale, spinach, spirulina, water
"X-Press": Strawberry, goji berry, avocado, mint, beets

At the bottom of my notes I wrote "Not a winner." Part of it is I don't like almond milk but honestly I remember all the smoothies being hard to drink. Looking around the room, there were a lot of mostly full glasses by the end so I don't think it was just me. By all means go for it if you're into those kinds of smoothies, but don't go in expecting a bunch of interesting brunch-y cocktails. Go in expecting spirulina and goji berries.

My adult kids (late 20's) did it. Said it was a one and done. Not what they expected.

Thanks for tips. Doesn’t sound like something we would enjoy.

Hard agree. Enjoyed the mimosa and Bloody Mary, but the smoothies were undrinkable (and I do a breakfast smoothie every morning at home).

We did this on the Dream and also said that it was a one and done.

We did a mixology class at 2:00 on the day we boarded. It was a great way to kick off the cruise.
