In the ever-evolving world of luxury cruising, Seabourn continues to set the bar higher with its latest innovation, "Zero @ Sea." This new zero-proof mixology program offers a refreshing twist on non-alcoholic beverages, elevating the onboard experience for guests who prefer their cocktails without alcohol. With a menu full of inventive and delicious zero-proof cocktails, Seabourn ensures that every guest enjoys a luxurious and satisfying drink, no matter their preference.

The Inspiration Behind Zero @ Sea

Seabourn's commitment to meeting and exceeding guest expectations has led to the creation of Zero @ Sea. As Gerald Mösslinger, Senior Vice President of Guest Operations, explains, "We understand that our guests' preferences are always evolving, and we've seen an increasing demand for non-alcoholic beverages. Our new Zero @ Sea program was designed to meet those needs for alternatives to traditional alcoholic beverages." This initiative reflects Seabourn's dedication to providing guests with unparalleled choice and variety in their onboard experience.

Crafting the Perfect Zero-Proof Cocktails

Seabourn's expert culinary and beverage team, led by Michael Simon and Francisco Fernandes, has meticulously crafted a menu of non-alcoholic cocktails that mirror the artistry and attention to detail of the line's world-class culinary offerings. Simon notes, "Our team was inspired by the growing interest in and increasing requests for alternative cocktails and non-alcoholic options among our guests. In response, we developed premium, zero-proof cocktails that not only promise flavor but are also visually appealing."

The Zero @ Sea menu features unique twists on popular cocktails, including:

  • Amalfi Spritz: A refreshing blend of non-alcoholic Rosé and Lyre Italian Orange.
  • Ginger Blossom: A zesty mix of Seedlip Groove 42, elderflower, and ginger ale.
  • Ginny 'n Tonic: A sophisticated combination of Optimist Bright, elderflower, and grapefruit.
  • Not So Cosmo: A delightful hybrid of the cosmopolitan and the classic old fashioned.

Enhancing the Culinary Experience

The introduction of Zero @ Sea is part of Seabourn's broader strategy to enhance its onboard culinary offerings. This initiative aligns with other recent updates, such as the launch of Solis, a new fine dining experience celebrating Mediterranean cuisine. Solis debuted on Seabourn Quest in January 2024 and is set to be implemented on Seabourn Ovation, Seabourn Encore, and Seabourn Sojourn by spring 2024.

Seabourn's dedication to providing exceptional dining experiences is evident in the meticulous planning and execution of its culinary programs. The Zero @ Sea cocktails are crafted using premium ingredients and innovative techniques, ensuring that each drink offers a unique and satisfying experience. Guests can enjoy these beverages in all bars and lounges aboard Seabourn's ultra-luxury fleet, along with an upgraded selection of non-alcoholic wines, sparkling wines, and beers.

Meeting the Growing Demand for Non-Alcoholic Options

The rise in demand for non-alcoholic beverages is a significant trend in the luxury travel industry. Seabourn's Zero @ Sea program is a timely response to this shift, offering guests an extensive menu of innovative and delicious zero-proof cocktails. These drinks provide an alternative to traditional alcoholic beverages without compromising on taste or complexity.

Seabourn's approach to non-alcoholic mixology ensures that guests have a variety of choices that cater to their preferences. Whether enjoying a drink by the pool, in a lounge, or at dinner, guests can savour a refreshing and sophisticated beverage that complements the luxury cruise experience.
