Meals at Sea
Dinner aboard ship is a seat down affair where the waiters are serving the guests all the time. Buffets are reserved for midnight and afternoons around the pool. The midnight buffets are fantastic, the guests are offered various hot and cold appetizers, salads, fruit platters, vegetable platters, meat platters and fantastic desserts of all kinds. The ice sculpture serves as the centerpieces of these tables, along with beautiful floral centerpieces.
Bar Area
The bar area can be decorated in a sleek style. You can place a lot of votive candles, fresh flower bouquets, and serve lifesavers candies in silver dishes.
When your ship's horn signals it's departure time, it's also time for one of the highlights of every cruise—a festive sail away deck party. Laden with trays of exotic bon voyage “umbrella” drinks, bar servers make their way through throngs of cheerful passengers anxious to toast the beginning of their cruise. It goes without saying that the most popular of these beverages is the Piña Colada.
 The original Piña Colada recipe
Ingredients:
2 ounces light rum
1 ounce coconut cream
1 ounce heavy cream
6 ounces fresh pineapple juice
1/2 cup crushed ice
Pineapple wedge and maraschino cherry for garnish
You should pour rum, coconut cream, cream, and pineapple juice in blender. Then, add ice. The mixture should be blended for15 seconds. After that pour it into a 12-ounce glass and add garnishes.
Those who give the preference to a tasty non-alcoholic Virgin Colada should simply leave out the rum.
Whether it's the original recipe, a variation containing other flavors, or a Virgin-version, the Piña Colada is a perennial favorite with cruise passengers world wide. In spite of this beverage you can also offer your guests martinis, champagne, cocktails and other fun drinks.
