HOW TO PURCHASE

Beverage Package or A La Carte

AGE RESTRICTION

21+ on sailings from North America, 18+ on sailings from South America, Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand.

MENU HIGHLIGHTS

If you love a great Old Fashioned, you’ll find five versions of it on the menu at Schooner Bar, including a tropical twist that blends muddled cherries and pineapple with orange bitters and Malibu coconut rum, and an innovative New Fashioned that brings in pink grapefruit, fresh raspberries and a little bit of Southern Comfort. You can also dial up your night with a glamorous champagne cocktail, topped with Domaine Chandon and sweetened with an Angostura-doused sugar cube. Or sip your way across the Caribbean with a Zacapa rum-spiked daiquiri, shaken hard and double-strained, or a classic Papa Doble, prepared with Bacardi Superior rum, lychee and grapefruit juice. If you’re a fan of the Tom Collins, you’ll find that, too – plus four additional versions that each spotlight a different spirit.

PRO TIP

HYDRATE AT THE POOLSIDE BAR

You don’t have to stray too far from your comfy poolside lounger to enjoy a cool and creamy piña colada, a tropical Mai Tai, a glass of bubbly or your favourite ice cold brew – just pull up a chair at the Pool Bar.

HOW TO PURCHASE

Beverage Package or A La Carte

AGE RESTRICTION

21+ on sailings from North America, 18+ on sailings from South America, Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand.

MENU HIGHLIGHTS

Whether your go-to spirit is vodka, gin, tequila, whisky or rum, you’ll find something delicious to sip on at the Pool Bar. Tequila lovers should definitely try the Royal Citrus Ritatini, made with Avion Silver, Cointreau and fresh lime or the Smokey Rita — a twist on the classic Marg that spotlights Del Maguey Vida Blanco mezcal, triple sec, orange juice and Margarita mix. If you’re more into whiskey or bourbon, opt for a classic Manhattan or a Rob Roy, both blended with just the right amount of sweet vermouth. And if you’re in the mood for something ginny, try the blood orange negroni – elevated with a small splash of blood orange, it’ll transport you straight to the storied bars of Florence, where this classic aperitif was born.

PRO TIP

If you don’t want to leave your lounger, an attendant can bring your order to you from the bar.

SAVOUR THE SIPS & THE SIGHTS

A fixture on nearly every cruise ship in the Royal Caribbean fleet and a true architectural wonder, the iconic Viking Crown Lounge® is the ultimate spot to soak up panoramic views while you sip your favourite cocktails. Catch the sunset through its floor-to-ceiling windows, then stick around as the space comes alive with the sounds of live entertainers, flashing strobe lights and plenty of hip-swinging action on the dance floor.

SHAKING UP THE CLASSICS

Swanky, sophisticated and suffused with retro style, the R Bar serves up classic cocktails garnished with vintage vibes. Whether your drink of choice is a dry gin Martini, an expertly mixed Old Fashioned, or the perfect gin and tonic, you’ll find plenty to savour here.

AGE RESTRICTION

21+ on sailings from North America, 18+ on sailings from South America, Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand.

MENU HIGHLIGHTS

The vintage décor at the R Bar creates the perfect atmosphere to order a classic Old Fashioned or Gimlet, but you should definitely also try one of the signature cocktails on the menu. Those who prefer their drinks on the fruity side will love the Purple Haze, made with Bacardi 8 rum, Blue Curacao and Pernod, and shaken with pineapple juice, passion fruit puree and a splash of grenadine. For a cocktail that doubles as dessert, opt for the aptly-named Red Velvet Cake, a decadent infusion of limoncello, dark chocolate liqueur, crème de cacao white and strawberry puree. If you’re craving something smooth, but strong, there’s the Green Goddess. It’s a potent blend of Belvedere vodka, Hennessy, Blue Curacao and mango puree, topped off with a twist of lemon. And for fans of fizzy drinks, it doesn’t get better than the Let’s Get Fizzical, a refreshingly light combination of passion fruit puree, apple juice and St-Germain elderflower liqueur topped with Prosecco.

PRO TIP

The bartenders here are pros. Let them surprise you with something that’s not on the menu.

GIVE ME A CUE

AGE RESTRICTION

21+ on sailings from North America, 18+ on sailings from South America, Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand.

MENU HIGHLIGHTS

The British Pimm’s Cup, the Aperol Spritz and the Coca-Cola and Kahlua-infused Hennessy Black Bull are staples at Solarium Bar. But if you prefer to unwind with something a little different, opt for one of the premium mixed drinks on the menu. The Kentucky Burgundy is a favourite among bourbon lovers. Made with Maker’s Mark, crème de cassis, fresh lime and strawberry mix, it strikes the perfect balance between spirit-forward, sweet and citrusy. Or keep things simple with an iconic Rob Roy, which spotlights Dewar’s White shaken with sweet vermouth. And if you like your drinks sweet and sour, go for the Washington Apple, a tart blend of Crown Royal, sour apple liqueur and cranberry juice.

PRO TIP

Don’t see your drink of choice on the menu? This is a full bar and the bartenders know their stuff – feel free to make a special drink request.

UNCORK ADVENTURE AND RAISE A GLASS

Whether it’s Malbec, Merlot, Riesling or Pinot Grigio, you’re sure to find all your beloved reds or whites at Vintages wine bar. From France to California, the wide world of wine is well represented through extensive partnerships with top winemakers, including some exclusive bottles you won't find anywhere else.

MENU HIGHLIGHTS

Deciding what to drink at Vintages all depends on your own personal preferences. If you love a great Reisling, try a glass of light and fruity Dürnberg from Austria. If Sauvignon Blanc is more your speed, the menu at Vintages offers several great options from Marlborough, New Zealand. Those looking for something richer and more full-bodied should try Two Hands’ 'Gnarly Dudes' Shiraz from Barossa Valley, South Africa, or a glass of Cheval des Andes from Mendoza, Argentina – a balanced blend of Malbec grapes and Bordeaux varietals. Celebrating a special occasion or just want to dial up your evening with something bubbly? Choose between delicious prosecco from Veneto, cava from Catalonia, or brut and brut rosé from Champagne.

PRO TIP

Check the menu or ask your bartender about wine specials, offered daily.

21+ on sailings from North America, 18+ on sailings from South America, Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand.

MENU HIGHLIGHTS

The English Pub is best known for its wide and diverse selection of beers, but you can also order up a mean cocktail here. If you want something smooth yet strong, go for the James Bond Martini. It’s a powerhouse triad of Belvedere vodka, Beefeater gin and Lillet Blanc. If you love bourbon, try the Buffalo Manhattan, which swaps whiskey for Buffalo Trace with sweet vermouth and a splash of Angostura bitters. And if you’re having trouble deciding between spirits, order the Boston Iced Tea Party, made with Tanqueray gin, Bacardi Superior rum, Absolut vodka, triple sec, and sweet and sour mix. Want to try something really different? Ask for a beertini or cockt-ale – mixed drinks infused with brews to create one-of-a-kind libations you can savour slowly.
