How to communicate that a tip to staff on a cruise ship is additional to those prepaid?

Here is what I ended up doing:

1) The wait staff on the first night was terrible, luckily we needed a table reassignment.

2) The next night we were assigned a wonderful wait staff, the got called out in our comments for their great service and I gave the waiter $50 extra at the end of the cruise, and each assistant $20. Luckily we had them for the rest of the time.

3) I gave our cabin steward an extra $20 at the end. He was okay, not great.

Luckily all of the parties involved had great English skills so it was easy to communicate the extra amount.

How do I communicate that this is an extra tip?

Giving money should be perfectly well understood without any verbal communication. The donation is communication.

The recipient is not going to misunderstand and, say, think you are sending them out to fetch you a pizza.
