Cruisin 4 Ever Posted November 4, 2013 #26 Share Posted November 4, 2013 There was a thread on facebook today where everyone was complaining about the iced tea. How is the lemonade in your opinion? Are there any other free options? I like it. I usually manage to find a wedge of lemon to squeeze in it for a little extra zing, and it's quite good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusinpsychRN Posted November 4, 2013 #27 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I like it. It's good mixed with almost anything too. Put a little grenadine in it and it's yummy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted November 5, 2013 #28 Share Posted November 5, 2013 As dispensed, it's just plain too sweet for our taste - problem for us is not being too strong or too sour, those are fine - as it's excessively sugarly. Dilute it with water first & it's fine. If taking it elsewhere with our BPA-free water bottle, we just transfer plenty of crushed ice from the Lido before filling it up with lemonade, with a clean plastic cup indirectly, of course (unlike many we observed doing otherwise - in plain sight with the posted reminder sign) Off topic, same with morning OJ in the buffet & MDR, too sweet & I feel for those with diabetic conditions.

Chelleum Posted November 5, 2013 #29 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Last cruise it was too sweet. Mix it half/half with iced tea or water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Kat Posted November 5, 2013 #30 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Instead of the lemonade, I squeeze a couple of lemon slices into a glass of ice water. Lemon-tasting but no sugar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillaFee Posted November 5, 2013 #31 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I agree that the lemonade is a little bit too strong straight out of the machine. I like to mix mine 50/50 with vodka. :D Bahahaha! My thoughts exactly!:D:p Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottsSweetie Posted November 5, 2013 #32 Share Posted November 5, 2013 There was a thread on facebook today where everyone was complaining about the iced tea. How is the lemonade in your opinion?

cruse2loose Posted November 5, 2013 #33 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I love the lemonade and the hot chocolate. I like the guava passion juice in the morning, it is a little sweet so I put about 1/4 orange juice and stir it up to make it just right !!

The4Cruisers Posted November 5, 2013 #35 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I mix 1/3 cup of water into 2/3 cup of lemonade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitamin_Sea Posted November 5, 2013 #36 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Its very sweet. I usually do the 50/50 Ice tea/ Lemonade and ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LandlockedCruiser01 Posted November 5, 2013 #38 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I find the lemonade to be too concentrated. The way it comes out of the dispenser, it tastes like eating Country Time Lemonade powder straight out of the can. If I'm drinking it as something to wash down the food with, I dilute it 50:50 with water or iced tea, otherwise it overpowers the food. And if I'm drinking it to quench thirst, I have to dilute it 90:10 with water; or I decide "screw it" and get a nice cold beer :D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aplmac Posted November 5, 2013 #39 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I always mix mine with water. 3/4 lemonade 1/4 water. I don't like the taste of it straight up. Yes, it's a little too concentrated and sour for my tastecoming straight out of the machine. Depends on the day and the machine, too bcoz I've found different strengths on different days. Put ice in your cup, run a little water, then fill up with Lemonade. Stir! . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatlander204 Posted November 5, 2013 #40 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I actually like it.. It is very refreshing but what I also like to do is add it to the Iced Tea.. makes a good thing even better!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikel24m Posted November 5, 2013 #44 Share Posted November 5, 2013 We do what most do and mix the ice tea with lemonade and its pretty good As far as other free things to drink bring yourself a couple of sports bottles and fill those in the morning with the mango/guava/ fruit juice that's good with vodka or rum too:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandy923 Posted November 5, 2013 #50 Share Posted November 5, 2013 THe Tea was really really gross! But my kids fell in LOVE with the Lemonade! I did mix it 1/2 water 1/2 lemonade and it was just right for them. I'm more of a water drinker- but I did taste their glasses and I thought it was fresh tasting.
