Cunard's "QE2 Cocktail"

[Rob Lightbody]

Introduced last year for the 50th anniversary, Cunard now has a QE2 Cocktail available on board its ships.

I sampled one in the Commodore Club on QM2 last month and.... I have to say... didn't particularly like it!  It wasn't a patch on our own QE2 50 cocktail designed by Louis which I sampled many times at our conference.  However I still enjoyed the experience very much.

I believe our own Lynda was going to try one last night, and I'm looking forward to hearing what she thought of it.

Hi Rob - I received a text from her on Saturday evening which confirmed she was indeed in the Commodore Club on board QE enjoying a QE2 cocktail!!

Good to see you on Saturday btw.

I did indeed try one for the sail away from Greenock down the River Clyde. It was a good way to celebrate QE2 not far from where she was built. 

I had another one when Grill Britannia and her husband joined for drinks on the last evening, which was a nice end to the cruise.

Our QE2 50 cocktail that Davina created is much better as there are more flavours and it was a longer drink

The cocktail on board the Cunard ships had a lot of ice in relation to the other ingredients. But not bad compared to some of the other cocktails that were being served up.  I have to say that sadly there were inconsistencies in the bar staff's cocktail making skills.

Did the bar staff know that QE2 is a ship ?

I am not sure June. They should be as the cocktail was within a section of the menu commemorating Cunard ships.
