Alchemy Bar Revved Up Mojito Martini Recipe

Contents show

We are huge fans of the Alchemy Bar on Carnival Cruise ships. There is just something so fun about relaxing with an epic cocktail and meeting people from around the world.

On our last cruise, we visited the Alchemy Bar almost every night for at least one cocktail. It was fun hearing how other guests spent their day and what they were excited to do on the ship.

We have found that the Alchemy Bar gets busier as the week goes on and guests realize just how good the bartenders are.

During our cruise on the Carnival Miracle to Alaska this summer we signed up for the Carnival Cheers Program. This was our first time trying the program and we really enjoyed it.

I really wanted to try all of the Alchemy Bar cocktails along with a few other drinks on board that we had never tried before. It was great not having to stress about what our final bill would be at the end of the week.

This Revved Up Mojito Martini is a great twist on a classic mojito and martini.
