What’s the best way to beat the heat wave we’ve been having? Go on a cruise with Princess Cruises! Even more exciting is that Princess Cruises is now pouring globally inspired Cocktails by master mixologist Rob Floyd! Cool off with one of the many refreshing beverages that have been added to the menus. Destination-specific ingredients have been carefully selected to tantalize guests’ taste buds with flavors from every corner of the world. In addition to the new cocktails, the line has added 20 new high-end and exotic spirits, 39 new wines by the glass, and 17 new international and craft beers to the new menu.
These fun new menus will be featured throughout the bars and lounges aboard Princess ships and will offer the best cruise vacation experience at sea. One thing that I love the most about traveling is enjoying the food and drinks that are local to the area that I am visiting. Food tourism has become a big thing. Getting cool pictures of the area and making memories to last a lifetime are important, but so is the culinary experience of the culture one is visiting. Princess Cruises understands this and includes flavors from every corner of the world that go with the destination you are cruising to. I love that!
Floyd believes spectacular drinks combine the best of “The Three T’s.” First is “Taste,” as interesting ingredient combinations produce delicious flavors. The second element, “Technique,” refers to the skill and craft that goes into creating each drink. And last but not least the “Tale;” a creative and fascinating inspiration behind each unique cocktail. I love that each drink has it’s own special story to tell.
Whether traveling to Mexico, Italy, or the South Pacific, these globally designed cocktails have the flavors to inspire. Initial offerings are to include:
- Mayan Heat: Patrón Silver tequila, Triple Sec, lime juice, agave syrup, muddled jalapeño
