Tropical Cocktails That Ruffle Feathers
Step into the Pesky Parrot, and you’ll immediately feel like you’ve stumbled into a hidden tiki haven. The vibrant colors and island-inspired decor transport you straight to the tropics. Brightly painted walls adorned with surfboards and tiki masks, palm leaf fans lazily spinning overhead, and a relaxed beach vibe set the scene. It’s the kind of place where you can practically feel the sand between your toes—minus the sunburn.
But, of course, what would a tiki bar be without its signature cocktails? The Pesky Parrot is known for its playful menu of tropical drinks that are as much fun to say as they are to sip. Whether you’re looking to quench your thirst or try something adventurous, there’s a cocktail for every taste, each packed with exotic flavors and plenty of personality.
Some highlights from the menu include:
Toucan Tango – A refreshing blend of rum, pineapple juice, and a twist of something magical that gives this drink its signature zing. It’s so smooth and tropical, you might just find yourself two-stepping after the first sip.
Mango Macaw Margarita – Take a classic margarita, give it a fruity twist with fresh mango, and you’ve got a drink that’ll have you dreaming of lounging under the palms. It’s zesty, sweet, and the perfect way to toast your time in paradise.
Parrot’s Punch – This one comes with a warning: it packs quite a punch! A bold mix of citrus flavors and a little extra rum gives this drink its tropical flair and a kick that will keep you coming back for more.
Meet the Pesky Parrot Himself
While the drinks are enough to draw you in, it’s the Pesky Parrot himself that really steals the show. This life-size animatronic bird is the bar’s mascot and resident comedian. With a beak full of sass and a knack for cracking jokes, he’s always ready to engage with guests, squawking out one-liners or serenading you with a cheeky tune. Don’t be surprised if he interrupts your conversation to offer his “expert” opinion on your drink choice or gives you a playful jab as you order your second round. He’s a little mischievous, but that’s what makes him such a hit with cruisers.
The Pesky Parrot doesn’t just sit pretty on his perch. He’s known to ruffle a few feathers (in the best way) with his antics, and every interaction feels like part of the show. It’s all part of the fun atmosphere that makes the Pesky Parrot a must-visit spot on the ship.
