A long cocktail menu becomes easier to explore when you begin with flavors you already enjoy. At Paradise Beach Cozumel, you can choose among citrus-led drinks, fruit combinations, mint, coconut and options with chile in the name.
Instead of picking only because a cocktail sounds tropical, look at its ingredients. A few familiar preferences can point you toward the part of the menu you are most likely to enjoy.
Start with citrus or a margarita variation
The margarita description lists tequila, triple sec and lime. If that combination appeals to you, the margarita section is a useful place to start. Its choices include traditional, strawberry, jalapeño and mango habanero.
Strawberry gives you a fruit-focused option to consider. Jalapeño and mango habanero put chile in the picture. If you are interested in one of the spicy choices but unsure what to expect, ask your server about it before ordering. A menu name cannot tell you exactly how the heat will suit your own taste.
Look for mint or a different fruit combination
Mojitos are listed in traditional, passion fruit and strawberry varieties. Comparing those options is a simple way to choose between a familiar version and a fruit variation.
For another drink featuring mint, the Mint Bikini lists gin, cucumber, mint and sparkling water. That ingredient list gives you a different direction from the fruit-juice combinations elsewhere on the menu. If cucumber is a flavor you enjoy, it is worth a look.
Explore pineapple and coconut
Paradise Punch combines white rum, coconut-flavored rum, pineapple juice, orange juice and grenadine. The frozen piña colada also appears on the menu with rum and pineapple juice. These are two places to look when pineapple or coconut is what you have in mind.
They are separate recipes, so choose by the listed ingredients rather than treating all tropical-sounding cocktails as interchangeable. The full cocktail menu makes those comparisons easier.
Decide whether a spirit upgrade matters to you
The Exclusive All Inclusive menu includes its listed drinks. Paradise Beach also offers a paid Top Shelf upgrade. If you have a preferred spirit, ask which option is available and confirm the current upgrade terms before adding it.
You can read more about the upgrade on the Bar & Kitchen page. Think about that decision separately from the flavor of the cocktail you want.
Give your server a clear starting point
If you are still deciding, say which ingredients appeal to you and which you prefer to avoid. “I like lime and mint” is a more useful starting point than asking for something tropical. Then choose one drink to enjoy with your meal or while relaxing at your chair. The menu offers plenty of flavors to explore at your own pace.
