thanks. but if the absolut is only $40 for a liter that would cost let's say......$25 elsewhere.....don't think i'll drop $25 on the flasks.

 

Thank you for saying that! Not to mention another $3 - $8 for shipping.

I guess if a person would use the flasks a lot it might pay off.

I worried about getting caught smuggling in alcohol and instead opted to buy a liter of vodka from Carnival for $40- and brought my own small bottles of cranberry juice and tonic water plus a couple of limes. Best decision I made- the liter was plenty for the week and I had a few beers from the room refrigerator and an occasional drink about the ship.

 

We also brought on the allowable bottles of wine and bought a wine package.

 

Our bar bill for the cruise was very reasonable and we did it easily within the rules.

Is there a limit to how much beer you can pre-order to keep in your room?

 

 

I had my bottle of Whiskey sent to my room by Bon Voyage and bought my DH 5 days (4 a day) bar coupons and he got those the first night at dinner. I brought my own Gingerale on with me.

For any of you that have ordered tequila. I just called Bon Voyage, and the only silver they have is Patron. The 1800 they carry is gold. Also, someone mentioned they have Grand Marnier, which the lady told me they don't, they just have Triple Sec.

My question is, would the 1800 gold and triple sec make a decent margarita.

You can tell I don't make many of these. :)

Thanks.

it will make a great one. You really don't need the triple sec if you want to save money. triple sec is weak on alcohol and really just sweet orange flavor.

 

just buy the cheapest margueritaville tequila they sell. then bring jose cuervo marguerita mix on board and mix it up. tastes yummy.

Is $60 for Limoncello excessive? I've never had it but it is something I want to try. Can you buy it as an individual drink? :confused:

$60 is in line with all the other overcharged prices for BV products IMHO!

Lemoncello is yummo. I mix mine with cream and serve over ice. There are lots of drink recipes you can Google them; example Lemoncello + club soda + ice. I prefer mine with lots of sugar and I do not usually like sweets!

Manjare or whatever the Italian is for "drink up".

Not sure if this is always the case but you can save the state sales tax if you don't

have your Bon Voyage order delivered until later on. I'm leaving from Baltimore on the Pride and they told me my order

will be delivered a few hours after leaving port to save the 6%.

 

Worth it !;)
