CELEBRITY CRUISES Launches ‘AlWAYS INCLUDED’

It was not that long ago that the generally-held view about the price of a cruise was that it cost double what you initially paid for it. Expensive drinks - to which 20% gratuities were added, a further £8 or so a day for more tips, plus slow and pricey internet access, all  helped to rack up the final bill, a significant deterrent to those considering a cruise.
 
Now Celebrity Cruises have addressed this major issue by introducing ‘Always Included’. From Tuesday, 17th November 2020, every Celebrity Cruises holiday will include fast Wi-Fi, drinks and tips, simplifying the holiday experience and making it so much easier for passengers to budget for a luxury holiday. 

Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, president and CEO of Celebrity Cruises, said; “Today, nothing is more luxurious than when things are extra simple and extra special.  We wanted to bring that big wonderful feeling of ‘everything is taken care of’ to life for our guests.” 

Celebrity Cruises have a history of innovation in cruising. These include grass lawns on top decks 
​and, with Celebrity Edge and Celebrity Apex, the ‘magic carpet’, an additional piece of deck that can be moved  up and down to provide anything from additional party space to a large, stable platform for boarding tenders at ports where mooring alongside is not possible.
As we move slowly back to normality, this latest move will be very​ welcome to their existing clients, as well as those looking to cruise in style without breaking the bank.

Even  if you can't visit India right now, say hello to PATAKA, a ginger liqueur made from Indian Fairtrade Ginger Root and Fairtrade sugar.
 
Pataka is the Punjabi word for ‘firecracker’ and the combination of ginger root and an alcohol content of 35% (ABV) gives Pataka fiery, fresh and smooth taste.
 
It’s great as a base for winter-warmer cocktails. Here are some to try.
 
Firecracker. Pour 50ml of Pataka into a tall glass with ice and top up with ginger ale.
 
Mulled Ginger. Warm a glass of red wine in a pan, add 30ml of Pataka, a slice of orange and a stick of cinnamon.
 
East Side. Add ice to a cocktail shaker with 40ml of Pataka, 10ml of gin, 25ml of fresh line juice, 8 mint leaves and 10rml of sugar syrup. Shake and strain into a cocktail glass.

Pataka is available from Master of Malt   Whiskey Exchange   The Drink Supermarket

The brand is owned by French company Ethical Wine & Spirits and developed jointly with MANGROVE in the UK. EWS is dedicated to producing high-quality spirits sourced ethically and sustainably.
