Decaf Diet Coke ????

[Presto2]

Hi,

 

Just wondering if anyone knows if they have decaf Diet Coke on the ships or not.

If not, can we take a couple of bottles on alongside our 2 litres of spirits.

 

Thanks

Not 100 % sure they have it on the ship....but there is no limit to the amount of soft drinks you can take on-board with you..

I drink Diet Coke and have never seen the caffeine free.

Please don't take this the wrong way, but Diet Coke is really bad for you.

I know P&O sell Pepsi. I don't think they sell coke. However I could be wrong, I often am.

That's useful to know. Thanks everyone for the other responses too.

So are 2 Litres of spirits 🥂

You should have no problem taking a few bottles onboard or when you get back on board when visiting the ports you berth at.

Even on our latest cruise when in Hamburg, we bought a few bottles of Pepsi -Max for our cabin use.

The UK version of Pepsi Max is safe for diabetics to drink because it contains artificial sweeteners, rather than sugar.

But be aware that some drinks bought outside the UK can contain sugar as they are sold reduced sugar rather than sugar free.

So just a little heads up when buying sugar/caffine free drinks in abroad ports, check the label on the drink.

As for the ship security ,not a problem taking these drinks onboard , I even presented the till receipt to show it was genuine .

Hope that helps

Especially if you drink it all the same day.

Thanks - it is the decaf side I need. Haven't had caffeine now for about 10 years and it really upsets my whole system now if I do ----- makes me ill and makes me feel far more tipsy than the vodka !!!!!

Hi, I thought I had replied to this Jean -- sorry was not ignoring you.

 

Will have a look but as someone else said, neither is the Vodka ! ;-)

I am exactly the same. Recently I was served a cup of regular coffee in a restaurant and I knew immediately it wasn't decaffeinated. Caffeine gives me the kind of buzz you describe. I had to stop drinking coke before caffeine free was invented and have never tried it again.

The decaf stuff is ok in that it doesn't leave me 'on the ceiling' !!

It's right that P&O sell Pepsi not Coke a Cola.

We are taking both decaffeinated coke and spirits, nothing better than a pre- dinner drink as you are getting ready
