Tonic

[plank]

Can we bring tonic water onboard? We like tonic and lime:)

[firefly333]

Yes, any combination non alcoholic up to 12 cans or bottles up to 17 oz. Carry on only

We always bring a bottle.  It is good for leg cramps.

Yes you can. I usually bring some small  6 - 7 oz bottles of diet tonic for vodka and tonic. Royal doesn’t carry diet anymore and I need to offset all the chocolate martinis I drink. 😁  I order vodka on the rocks and add my diet tonic.

What?  When did they stop carrying diet tonic?  OMG!  What has the world come to?  😜 Seriously, I thought I was the only one who drank diet tonic.  I try (and sometimes succeed) adhering to a low-glycemic diet and I got hooked on diet tonic years ago.  I can't even stand to drink sweet tonic anymore.  I just drink a dry, dirty martini when diet tonic is not available and I want some gin.

Not sure when they quit carrying it since I just started bringing it on board this past September. We have been cruising more than we normally do and the drinking has been adding up. Had to try to cut some calories some how. 😁

does anyone know what they charge on board for just a glass of tonic?

I wish they had diet sour mix!  😮

Probably about the same as all the other sodas - about $3.

[biomedbob]

I contact the local tonic bottler at the port of departure and have my diet tonic delivered to the ship and my cabin.

is tonic water included in the soda package?

Good question.  My guess would be that if they have it on tap, then yes, but if it's in bottles, no.  The way the soda package is worded is that it includes "fountain sodas".

RCCL stopped carrying "Diet" tonic water a long time ago. I like to drink "Gin" & "Tonic" w/lime. So, I started ordering my "gin" with "Sprite Zero". It's almost the same for me.

Yes they carry diet tonic - especially on UK cruises where they have a separate gin menu and the accompanying Fevertree mixers.

 

Wonder had the Club diet tonic in a few of the bars last week.  Doesn’t taste nearly as good as Fevertree though!
