Visit us: NowGoSeeIt.com Embark on a spirited journey aboard the Norwegian Getaway as we dive into the unique world of cocktails offered on this cruise. In this video, Elliot reviews custom drinks from every bar on the ship, avoiding standard options like Negronis or Manhattans. Instead, he highlights cocktails that are exclusive to Norwegian, bringing humor and honesty to each sip. The Pour House First stop, The Pour House, where Elliot starts with the Botanical Spritz, a light and refreshing cocktail featuring vodka, pomegranate juice, and basil syrup. Despite its pleasant taste, a too-large grapefruit garnish earns it a modest 3/5 rating. Next up, the whimsically named Bananarum-ble delights with its fruity and balanced flavors, scoring a solid 4/5. The Jackhammer, a bourbon-based concoction, impresses bourbon enthusiasts with its bold flavors and earns a 4/5. The Sparkling Garden, a floral yet balanced drink with elderflower and Prosecco takes the top spot at this bar with an impressive 4.5/5. The non-alcoholic Espresso Notini, featuring oat milk and espresso syrup, surprisingly steals the show with a perfect 5/5. Sunset Bar Moving on to the bourbon and whiskey-centric Sunset Bar, Elliot’s experience starts rocky with the Spiked Whiskey, which he criticizes for its overpowering acidity and scores a disappointing 1/5. The Monkey Business, a mix of rum, peanut butter whiskey, and lime juice, receives a lukewarm 2/5 for its lack of cohesion. Redemption comes with the Sunny Monk, a sweet and balanced whiskey-based drink earning a 4/5. The fall-inspired Whiskey Orchard Press and Bliss Boulevardier fail to impress, scoring 1/5 and 2.5/5 respectively, due to muddled pre-batched flavors. Sugarcane Mojito Bar At the Sugarcane Mojito Bar, the variety of mojitos brings mixed results. The overly spicy Spicy Pineapple Mojito gets a rare 0/5, while the Pineapple Coconut Mojito impresses with its balanced sweetness, scoring a 4/5. The Jalapeño Cucumber Mojito and Raspberry Guava Mojito fare better, with Elliot appreciating their unique flavors, giving them 2/5 and 3.5/5 respectively. The Spiced Rum Mojito and Floridita stand out with scores of 3.5/5 and 4/5, showcasing well-balanced flavors. Finally, the Coco Loco Mojito emerges as a clear favorite, earning a perfect 5/5 for its tropical flair and smooth coconut water base. Mixx Bar The adventure continues at Mixx, where the Smoky Peach Margarita impresses with its mezcal-forward smokiness, earning a respectable 3.5/5. However, the Red Bubbles, a vodka and Prosecco-based drink, falls flat with an uninspired 1/5. Spice H20 At the adults-only Spice H20, Elliot begins with the intriguing Croissant Mai Tai, only to declare it a disaster at 0/5. However, the Cucumber Cool, a refreshing vodka and elderflower mix, redeems the visit with its crisp and balanced flavors, scoring a commendable 4/5. Final Thoughts Elliot’s cocktail journey aboard the Norwegian Getaway is equal parts entertaining and informative. From surprising hits like the Espresso Notini and Coco Loco Mojito to misses like the Spiked Whiskey and Croissant Mai Tai, this video is a must-watch for anyone planning a cruise on Norwegian Getaway.
