The Alchemy Bar Spicy Chipotle Pineapple Martini is one of our favorite drinks to order—the perfect combination of spicy sweetness in an easy-to-drink cocktail.
Spicy Chipotle Pineapple Martini Recipe
The Alchemy Bar is one of our favorite places to spend time on any Carnival Cruise. The incredibly trained alchemist bartenders can whip you up the cocktail of your dreams.
We have finally tried every cocktail on the Alchemy Bar Menu, and this is one of the can’t-miss cocktails. My husband LOVES the Spicy Chipotle Pineapple Martini!
He goes for this if he orders off the menu instead of having a custom cocktail created.
One thing Carnival Cruise Line has done in the past few years is work on the food and drink options served on their ships.
We have been sailing Carnival for years and love seeing all the innovations and restaurants they have rolled out on ships.
We recently sailed on the updated Carnival Radiance and loved checking out the new Big Chicken restaurant from Carnival’s Chief Fun Officer Shaquille O'Neal.
We are excited to see the innovations coming out on the brand-new Carnival Celebration in the Fall. They are creating an entire Miami-themed zone called the 820 Biscayne.
It will be located on Deck 8 of the brand-new Carnival Celebration and include Bar 820, Deco Deli, and Miami Slice, a 24-hour pizza restaurant.
The pics I have seen include a flamingo photo opp that I can't wait to have fun with.

Recipe Variations + Tips for the Best Spicy Chipotle Pineapple Martini
Substitutions:
You can use any vodka if you can’t find Belvedere Vodka where you shop. Similarly, any pineapple juice and simple syrup works.
Vegetarian Option: This cocktail is naturally vegetarian!
Vegan Option: The consensus on whether Belvedere Vodka is vegan seems mixed, so vegans should look for a vegan-friendly brand.
Gluten-Free: Monin states in its FAQs that its syrups are gluten-free.
Alcohol-Free Option: Replace the Belvedere Vodka with an NA substitute to make it alcohol-free.
Make It Spicy: This cocktail has heat from the Monin Chipotle Pineapple Syrup. Feel free to add more to taste if you want it spicier.
Larger Group/More Servings: Feel free to scale the recipe up to your desired yield for a pitcher-style batch.
Sugar-Free: The written recipe contains 13 grams of sugar per serving. Replace the pineapple juice and simple syrup with sugar-free alternatives to lower the sugar content. Monin does not offer their Chipotle Pineapple Syrup in a sugar-free version, so replace this ingredient with a sugar-free substitute.
