Highlights include a new set of cocktails designed by Floyd using fresh ingredients and new themed menus, so guests can have fun exploring the different offerings from various bars onboard.

“I was truly inspired by ingredients from all the amazing destinations that Princess Cruises sails” said Rob Floyd. “Guests will be able to enjoy a wide selection of fully realized drinks that combine what I refer to as the Three T’s: taste, technique, and tale.”
