oh all
[Music]
right oh that's cool that was
fun all right we're at the Alchemy bar
and we're going to be
trying like every drink on the menu over
the course of the cruise and they tell
you all about them all first up though
this is Island old fashion Caribbean
twist spice bardi sugar
rums and I went with the I lost it oh my
gosh deal closer uh vanilla Voda amorito
Irish cream chocolate theor
Che that
one and a little sand or that one's good
all right so it's not super sweet which
is good um and it's got like a little
you can taste that spiced R and you got
cherries cherries and orange you can
taste the orange all right awesome and
we all know deal closer chocolate
goodness here she
all
right all right so we have the basil
basil drop Bas
drop for the lady and then we have the
40 is the new
20 all right basil drop 40 is the new
20
very I actually did not spill it even
though it was very
full so this one is like
pomegranate vodka very very good and
it's not terribly sweet it's like like a
medium medium sweet so 40 is a new20
drink of the day today it's one of my
favorites she has basil drop I was
worried about the basil drop because I
don't like the taste of Basil but all it
is is just a leaf so very
good all right so what would you rate
these two you tried to
both so I do think the 40 it's a new 20
has a little bit more flavor a tiny
tartness because of the pomegranate this
one seems to be a little bit more subtle
so I actually think I like the basil
we're moving I actually like the basil
drop slightly more just cuz I'm not big
with pomegranate but they're both pretty
good pomegranate who's not big with
pomegranate um I think I would give uh
40 a new 20 I would give this one a 10
because it is actually my favorite drink
at Alchemy bar but let me go give this a
little go the basil drop restorative
basil
drop so I think you would like this if
you're if you're done with all the
sugary drinks for the day it's not real
sugary but it's not like
too tooand or anything and it's got a
lot of mint so
but we're getting ready for dinner so I
little
subtle yeah that's good I like yeah I
would give this
one I don't know I give it a solid eight
maybe
[Music]
okay so we have our next two this is the
Chipotle martini and cucumber cuber
Sunrise cheers thank you and the
Catalina brought by
Catalina
Cina oh thank you thank
you so you can't go wrong with this one
we've made it at home you got to buy the
monin syrup a Chipotle syrup and then
add I forget what all else like simple
syrup and you have to have mint Lees in
your garden
this one is super
good I mean I would give that one at
least like a nine I would say and then
10 out of 10 with the Cucumber Sunrise
it's watermelon
cucumber it's just fantastic it very
refreshing we've made that one at home
too yeah you could actually find the
recipes for the Alchemy bar drinks
online so they even have the deal closer
right I'll try the
cucumber yeah just it's a nice very
refreshing drink the Cucumber adds
something so I would give this one I
think a nine as well and I would also
have to give a 10 out of 10 to the give
it a
go all right off to dinner all right so
we've had our favorite so far now we got
to dive into some that we aren't so
familiar
with we have next two
drink the
remedy so I have the martini seduction
which is new for me I've not had this
before okay that's red pasture fruit uh
lime juice hint of
orange
Theon I have the remedy dark Ram coconut
Ram white king sugar and
spice sugar she's there now she was my
she was my
all right this one is
very so Andy actually might like this
one you could really taste the fashion
fruit all right this is the
remedy it's got interesting spicy
everybody say hi to she's
H all right so here you want to try this
one remedy oh I don't even like the
smell of this so Mar
eduction I like this one a lot better
all right Mar seduction I give about an
eight I don't even like the smell of
this one honestly she her it's like
heavy orange
flavor yours is all right she's got the
better one all REM I don't
know I never heard
[Music]
about it's not me it's not this one's
about we got
it she does it better

that you sprinkle cinnamon cinnamon and
we have the Hearts on Fire for you and a
gin Bas that's the onein B theab and you

all right part's on fire mine is
very The Perfect
Storm oh gentle you got it you got it
you got it you got it I'm going to bring
myself to
it
Oh's really
good yeah you the Gin is like subtle
it's hard to taste the J I'm going to
have to get another drink cuz I got all
this in on top so it just taste like
cinnamon but
uhoh I think I might give this one um an
eight at least maybe eight or nine it's
hard to say said you like the gy I do I
do like you taste the gy yeah you can
hardly taste it very
subtle all right so you got that one
Hearts on
Fire creamy creamy and me I can taste
the Gin all right Perfect
Storm we
allight right that's really good
normally that's we've had that like in a
wine glass and they used to do like a a
little storm or like smoke or something
but it tastes really good yeah yeah
actually I'm going to just say yeah N9
on Perfect Storm 8 and 1 half on hard
Sunfire I'm going to say seven just
because I don't like J and what was
yours
I'm also going to get that a n n all
right these are two
winners
B and then the French all right well we
may be trading all right
perfect the time
time you don't have time for time all
right oh don't forget to cheer
right oh that's different
that one is very nice all right well
that's a dry champagne but it's good
yeah you would like that and then it's
got the
little flavors raspberry the Shambo
raspberry that's a bit dry let's see
what you think about
it it smells
dry okay so she shortened the name to
youthful and bold so I think I prefer
youthful and bold it is a little on the
sweet side but I would still maybe give
that one at least an eight maybe it's
sweet I would maybe say
U maybe a six on that one I'm going to
weigh down I'm going to give that a
three just cuz I don't like I don't like
champag I don't like champag don't like
champagne I'm still thinking on my take
another drink take another Dr to me the
blueberry vodka strawberry that's the
taste blueberry yes blueberry oh I love
blueberry if I had blueberries I'll put
some blueberries in
there all right we're all the audience
is waiting so I think I will I will give
it an eight an eight all right okay well
that one's a winner but it's also sweet
not really sweet but all
[Music]
right okay so next on the list purple
sunset uh it is bicardi rum lavender
syrup fresh
Rosemary sparkling wine okay it all
sounds
good it does have a little purple tint
to it yeah you can taste the CH
champagne right off the
bat and I am having a Cassandra special
of carbonated water and a little bitters
because the ship is rocking pretty good
and I didn't take my jamine so all right
she's waiting for dinner to take her
grand there he
is it's all Matthew's fault we're
BL how you guys doing good how are you
doing good to see
you but yes purple Sunset so I would
give this one another eight I mean it's
not super sweet
so9 seven or eight
yeah it's good okay moving
along yes a little
bubbly so we might be a little crooked
because our gimbal is dying so we're
sideways that's why or we maybe crooked
cuz we've had too many of the no that's
not it at all because this is my
first all right uh Andre has the mule so
I have the mule but it looks a little
different because since I am having a
little motion stuff which is way better
now thanks to Cassandra and Catalina but
it's a mule but a spin it has watermelon
instead of ginger beer and it's
fantastic so if you want this version of
The Mule just say make it watermelon
based instead of gingerbread good good
it's fantastic what would you give that
one I will give it a 10 oh a 10 there it
is I have Alchemist side car uh which is
uh VSOP oh VSOP or is it VSOP someone
tell meat conac triple suck fresh lime
syrup it smells
dry but you got sugar
right sugar on the
rim yeah
that's not for you that's not my thing
so I know a lot of these have been
scoring high for me like eights or nines
um this one's probably like a a or want
to try it but we're scraping the bottom
of the barrel cuz we're at tomorrow we
have our last three to try so it's going
to be a little rough going for the last
day me give that a go so maybe a four to
a five for the side car it's just
not the right flavor profile for me you
give it a one that's a one a one
yeah nothing against the maybe was nice
with the five all right I'll give it
four nothing against The Alchemist or
those who like it it's just not my cup
of tea all right try your
mu oh yeah that's good I can see where
it's like ginger based and then it's got
watermelon so that's good all right yeah
I will give that one a good eight or
nine all right now off to bed all right
so you y four more to go so we want you
to subscribe to AR Adventures
[Applause]
yay that was awesome oh my God all you
guys look like you had practi that all
right we have our next
two yep I think you did it right you did
it perfect
y thank
you and we have our next two we have the
uh reved up moito with chin and all
kinds of good stuff and this is the
Curative Peach Cosmo
palatin all right there we
go o okay all right so I usually like
cosmop palatin that we make at home but
I think I like the peach better than
with the well that cranber
Peach yeah the peach is Bit Stronger so
I get a peachier taste which I like
better than more cranberry so pretty
good n out of 10 n out of 10 all right
and this one uh not as sweet as all the
drinks which is a good change and then
the mint really stands out and yeah I
really like this
one it's refreshing delish you could
taste the Gin too
so yeah I think I would give this one a
strong n out of 10 as well this one's
really good all right so we got one more
each to go possibly after dinner so yeah
so was that a Mojito person before but
this is my maybe second or third ever I
think I really like this one yeah if you
like
mint all well let's switch aoo and see
what you
think
again like Andy said I'm not big on
Mojitos either but it's actually kind of
pleasant very salad yeah it's very kind
of subtle it doesn't screen moito so
very good all right Peach
[Music]
Cosmo yes so I do like that one I'm not
as big on
beach so I wouldn't score as high I
would probably maybe say six out of 10 I
just don't like the the beach so
much there you go I'm sorry all right
I'm going to go seven out of 10 just
because not big on mojito but it ranks
high for mojito all right so there you
go we only have two more to go all right
it's come down to this the last two uh
we have the quick fix which is like a
Bombay Sapphire Gin based drink um and a
little green something or other what was
it madori madori leor that's what makes
it green um and then I have pain relief
which is rum Malibu coconut rum combined
with French orange pineapple juices to
blurring the relief you need there you
go the last two oh last two all right
here we
[Music]
go oh boy all yeah it is licorice okay
thank you so I do taste the licorice
flavor
licorice all right I'm getting a lot of
I think I'm getting a lot of Star
rum and some of the orange and pineapple
I the coconut quite hasn't hit
yet oh there it is they the very first
uh
sip it's coconut right away and then it
kind of turns to like a orange and
pineapple what do you
[Music]
think maybe
seven out of
10 but it's not terrible well this one
so I didn't say we're right black gcor
flavor mixed in with this so I'm just
not sure the flavors go well so I might
give this one like five out of 10
you and I like black Clippers so it
doesn't make sense here you get the try
I do not like black Licor this scares
me oh man I smell it you're going love
it oh it tastes like those mik and I mik
that you like good and funnies good and
good and funnies
I can't all right so let's see on the
pain
Rel you're going to smell the black
licorice okay yeah I can do that one
well I can do that one
more but I'm only going to have to get
this a zero just because I don't like
black licorice and that's all I'm
tasting oh yeah all right and this
one
I'm not crazy on Peach so maybe like a
out
of yeah it is like black
[Music]
licorice well that wraps up the whole
menu the whole menu so our favorites
recalling the 10 out of 10 but it might
have been 40320 probably yeah and I
still really like the Cucumber Sunrise
along with the spicy Chipotle and I did
find some new ones that I like so I like
that red up mojito the first one I had
so we'll be able to enter more into the
mix on different crues now that we've
tried all of them we can actually rotate
different drinks perfect storms always
great Chipotle Martini is great Martini
seduction at the beginning that was good
um the side car I wasn't crazy about the
old fashion was crazy about and now this
one quick FX on that crazy R but I think
the rest are fine
water
goodness there we go look at
that she's get it to
liver that
look the best garnish ever on a piece of
spagetti a row of watermelon all right
give that a shot or a try something
they're on the cards

good oh you got it I got it you got it
