YouTube Video Description

On Princess Cruises, even a cocktail can tell a story. In this exclusive interview, world-renowned mixologist Rob Floyd shares how, over the past seven years, he has redefined the cocktail experience at sea, transforming drinks into unforgettable moments for cruise guests around the world. Rob doesn’t just make cocktails — he creates immersive experiences. He explains why a drink on a luxury cruise must go beyond flavor: it must spark emotion, connection, and surprise. For Rob, every cocktail is a form of personal theater, crafted for one guest at a time. He also reveals the inspiration behind one of his signature creations, Sandía en Fuego — a bold blend of watermelon, jalapeño, and volcanic salt, available with or without alcohol. The spice triggers an instant dopamine response, which is why, as Rob says, guests smile the moment it touches their palate. If you’re passionate about mixology, luxury cruising, Princess Cruises, or the stories behind unforgettable travel experiences, this interview is for you. 🍸 Would you try the Sandía en Fuego?
