Milk Shakes?

[Wirral]

At long last I have persuaded DH to accompany me on a cruise. Infinity, Norweign Fjords in June. I have been on many cruises and about 5 on Celebrity so thought I knew most of the main points. However he asked me yesterday if they do milkshakes on board. Being a milk hater I have never given it a thought for myself but I can't recall seeing milkshakes aboard.

 

Is any one of you helpful people able to give us a definitive answer?

 

Many thanks.

No milkshake, sorry.

 

However, they have pretty good icecream for free in the buffet restaurant or for a charge at cafe al bacio.

No milkshakes when we sailed last year. You can get frappes from the cafe at charge though. They can do a chocolate one with or without coffee.

You can get chocolate milk I believe although I've never had it personally.

Go to the buffet. Get a bowl of ice cream with your favourite topping. Then go to the drinks dispenser in the buffet and get a glass of milk. Pour one into another et voila a milkshake.

 

WARNING: This was only a thought. I don't know if it would work.......:D

 

Cafe El Bacio make a wonderful chocolate/mocha milk and ice cream concoction called the Iglu (I think you might be able to get caramel as well). MMMMMM it was lovely..and as I was on a premium non alcoholic package get a couple a day.

Those Iglus look great! Are you sure they are made with ice cream? The menu I have describes them: Espresso, ice, milk, and the Iglu powder mixture (your choice of café, chocolate or vanilla)

One of the bars could make one. They make some drinks with ice cream and milk.

Maybe I wrong...I thought there was a scoop of ice cream in it...maybe it was the crushed ice. I'm positive tho a couple of times I needed a spoon to eat out the bottom of the glass and I wouldn't have done that with ice...unless they blended the milk and cream In a mixer before hand and it was like a slush.

 

You have me puzzled now.

For milk shakes, you'll have to go to Royal Caribbean. They have a Johnny Rockets on their ships with spectacularly good milkshakes - and of course, you get sung to as well!

[Wirral]

Many thanks to all you helpful people. Those Iglus sure look good and yes we are both on the premium NA package so we can give them a try. DH drinks quite a bit of milk so he will have to go up to buffet area for cold milk. Thanks again for all your prompt replies. This site is brilliant.

I have to second that! Yum, yum, yummmmmm, I had the malted chocolate and it was to die for!

The Iglus have an ice cream "mix" in them, it's not real ice cream. However, they are absolutely delicious. I don't drink coffee so I just have them make it with an extra scoop or two of Iglu powder instead.

 

Also, if you have the Premium Alcohol package, try the chocolate version with a splash of Baileys :)
