My Favorite Carnival Cruise Drinks

I've sailed on many Carnival Cruise Line ships, so I wanted to share some of my favorite drinks and cocktails. Whenever I go on a cruise, these are some of my go-to drinks to order. Please be aware that some drinks are exclusively on the menu at certain bars though. Most specialty drinks, alcoholic drinks included, on the ship start at around $6.50. Keep scrolling to see some of the best drinks to order during your next cruise!


Mocha Chocolate Getaway - Made with Irish cream, Flor de Caña Rum, and rich Ghirardelli chocolate. I like to order this drink during the evening as a dessert option. This is the perfect version of an adult milkshake.

White Chocolate Caramel Frappe - Made with a Ghirardelli blend, this is one of the four flavors of frappes. Whenever you order, you also have the option of making this a spiked coffee drink. Frappes are available at the JavaBlue Cafe.

The Cruiser - Made with Absolut Vodka, Malibu Coconut Rum, Peach Schnapps, pineapple, cranberry, and orange juice. This quickly became my favorite cocktail. Whenever I go on a cruise, I usually have 2-3 of them per day. This is personally one of the strongest mixed drinks I found offered on the ship.

Classic Mojito - Made from Bacardi limón, fresh lime, mint, and club soda. Mojitos can be found in a variety of bars, but I found the mojitos to taste the best from the Havana Bar.

Kiss On The Lips - Made with mango puree, grenadine, and Peach Schnapps. I consider this to be one of the best frozen drinks on Carnival ships. It's not very strong, so you could consider adding an extra shot of your favorite liquor. This drink can be ordered alcohol-free.

Jamaican Sunrise - Made with Skyy Vodka, Peach Schnapps, Red Passion Fruit, Orange and Cranberry Juice. One of my favorite drinks to get at the Redfrog Pub are the fish bowls and this is the usual pick for me. If you're looking for a strong drink, I would definitely suggest giving this one a try.

Miami Vice - Made with piña colada and strawberry daiquiri layered together. Nothing says vacation time to me like a Miami Vice! This is another drink that can also be ordered alcohol-free, which is kid-friendly.


I hope this post has given you some new drink ideas for your next cruise or trip. If you're interested in seeing more of my favorite drinks, let me know in the comments if you want a Part 2!

My Travel Must-Haves

Welcome to my new website! I'm excited to share my first post with you, where I'll be discussing the essential travel items that I always bring with me on my trips. These items are compact and easy to pack in your personal bag or carry-on luggage. Right now is the perfect time to refresh your travel necessities as Amazon Prime Day is happening from July 11 to July 12.



Mini Jewelry Case - This jewelry case is compact and perfect for storing your favorite pieces of jewelry without taking up too much space.

Makeup Mirror with LED Lights - Hotel lighting isn't always the best, so this mirror comes in handy when applying my makeup or doing my skincare routine. 

Makeup Train Case - This makeup case fits so much! It safely stores all of my makeup and skincare, plus it has a spot for my makeup brushes. 

Portable Handheld Fan - I don't travel to any warm or hot climate without a portable fan. This one fits perfectly in my handbag or luggage. 

Fragrance Atomizer - Atomizers are a convenient option for replacing bulky fragrances or those that exceed 3.4 fl oz.

Portable Door Lock - When I travel solo, I like to carry a portable door lock with me. It gives me an added sense of security and peace of mind during my trips. 

Electronic Organizer Bag - I use this bag to keep my electronics and USB cords organized.

Daily Pill Organizer - I've found that using a pill organizer saves me space compared to carrying around multiple bottles in my purse or luggage.
