HERE'S TO PAPS ON THE VIKING STAR!
Guests traveling on the Viking Star, and all Viking ships with a beautiful Explorer's Lounge have found themselves steeped in the history of the Torstein Hagen family when perusing the louge menu. Among their outstanding cocktail and wine sellections they will find a drink dedicated to the CEO's father, known as Paps.
The Danish brandy, hot water and sugar drink is so perfect on a stormy day, which does sometimes happen when at sea, and guests I questioned all seemed to love the drink for it's sentiment and actual smooth warmth and comforting taste during their voyage.
Next time you are on the Jupiter, Star, Sun and others treat yourself to one of these delightful and relaxing beverages steeped in Danish history.Visit: www.vikingcruises.com. ♦ ♦ ♦
