Cruising Caribbean Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 The luxury cruise line Swan Hellenic may have pushed it a little too far with its new cocktail creation. Martha Stewart's iceberg drink received tons of backlash. Do you think it was really necessary? I don't support the idea of harming the environment, but the iceberg drink seemed pretty "chill." I initially thought this innovative drink was pretty "cool!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kefthecruiser Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Removing that chunk of sea ice from the ocean had no impact on the environment; it soon melted away either on board or in the sea. Was it gauche & uncouth? Sure, that's how the spoiled rich are. JMHO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FJB Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 I see nothing wrong with taking part of an iceberg to make a drink. It’s just frozen water for goodness sake! No different than taking the salmon out of the water for your lox and bagels. Some people like to get their panties in a wad just because. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendall James-Vargas Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 @FJB You make a really valid point! In fact, the impact of harvesting salmon/ fishing them out of the water may be more significant than that of the iceberg drink. I'm pretty fine with regular ice. The iceberg thing is a little silly, but it is certainly creative! It's pretty eye appealing too. After this, I doubt we will be seeing more iceberg drinks any time soon.
