Shaken and stirred

When two well-known entrepreneurs who like to have a good time team up at sea, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement. Richard Branson and actor/co-owner of Aviation American Gin Ryan Reynolds have collaborated to bring a bevy of exclusive gin-based cocktails to the adults-only Virgin Voyages cruise ship Scarlet Lady. Reynolds, who once dreamed of scoring a guest role on The Love Boat, says he could never have imagined his own gin brand would make the grade on board such a “deliriously luxurious” ship. There are 20-plus bars and eateries on board. virginvoyages.com
