Just when you thought you had tried every cocktail in the book, Delta and Delta Connection bring you Caipirosca.
Caipirosca is a Caipirinha made of vodka instead of the usual Cachaça. Caipirinha (pronounced kie-purr-REEN-yah) is Brazil’s national cocktail made with Cachaça (pronounced ka sha sa), sugar and lime. This traditional Brazilian drink prepared with cachaça has become very popular in Europe and the U.S.
It used to be Brazil’s best-kept secret, and is the connoisseur’s cocktail of choice from New York City to Miami. It launches on Delta in September as part of the Midnight Sky Cocktail program. Don’t forget to try one. It’s really good!!

Any chance of the Mango Kiss making a comeback? It was my favorite.

Sure, there’s a chance of bringing mango kiss or some other mango flavored cocktail back — more likely in the summer time. Thanks for your note!

I miss the Mango Kiss… and the passion fruit one! I was dissappointed in September when I wanted to try a Stirrings and now everything’s changed to Midnight Sky… and honestly, none of the offerings tickle my taste buds

I had once of these last week. It was nasty. It had a cough syrup flavor. I don’t know if the FA didn’t mix it right, but it was not good. I will try it again this week in hopes I just got a bad one, but I doubt it. Please bring back the original Mojito’s; they made my flight home much happier.

I was just on a flight and ordered 2 of your signature drinks… the Amarula Wakeup and the Pink Martini….. the flight attendants did not serve them the way that they are advertized. On the menu, it appeared that the Amarula Wakeup was served with Ice, but it came to me hot in a coffee cup. Secondly, the Pink Martini was served over ice….. isnt a martini shaken and poured without ice?
I love the New Delta and the trendy offerings, but I want them to be served the way they are advertized. So keep the signature drinks comming, but serve them in the stylish way you advertize them.
Thanks

I would love to get to try one. On my last two flights that offered a cocktail service, I was told they did not have the mix on one and the other FA did not know how to make it! I enjoyed the Mojito so I look forward to samply this new drink!

Forget the wierd drinks. If you want to make flying more enjoyable, and extra inch or two of leg/knee room would be better than a fancy drink.

I agree with comment #7. No offense but you are wasting time and money promoting funky cocktails on your plane.
Focus on more important things, such as being on-time and improving the industry’s worst phone and ramp service.

As a frequent business class passenger who flies to Costa Rica, how about improving the seats and food on your flights in and out of Liberia.

[...] all started on the plane… since october 2007 Delta airlines has caipirosca cocktails on board so we definitely had to try that ;-). In this way the flight trip (about 14 hours) was [...]
