# Norwegian Cruise Line Destination Themed Cocktails *By James Hills, mantripping.com — Updated July 2023* Norwegian Cruise Line has been giving Carnival a run for its money recently with two great new ships and now a series of drinks based on their favorite destinations around the world. Created by Gabriel Orta of the Miami-based Bar Lab Cocktails this new series features unique drinks on different ships and highlights fresh local ingredients. This includes guests on the Norwegian Breakaway and Norwegian Dawn where they can enjoy a traditional Dark and Stormy featuring Bermuda's favorite son, Gosling's Rum and ginger beer or the Breakaway Mai Tai below. While we can't think of much better than cruising on some of the world's best ships we think it might be easier to follow these recipes rather than setting off on months of travel :) ## Breakaway Mai Tai (Bermuda) 2oz Gosling's Black Seal Rum 1oz Almond syrup 1oz Fresh squeezed lime juice Dash of cinnamon Garnish: Mint, Cinnamon stick, half orange wheel Glass: Rocks Do You Love Cruising As Much As We Do?
