Rare New2cruise2022 Posted November 16, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 16, 2022 How accommodating are bartenders (or the menu) with non-alcoholic drinks (blended and otherwise) when taking a break from the sauce in between adult beverages? Asking for a friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valleyvillage Posted November 16, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Had wonderful virgin cocktails recently on Pride of America. Very accommodating! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bartenders don't care. @BirdTravels Gold medal for a well crafted joke. I’m from Utah, but not from the club so your awareness of the profile and demographic is particularly funny to me. But in all seriousness, I drink too fast for my own good and definitely have learned over the years to find other drinks that I can mix in to help with pacing. I like a nice buzz that never ends, not a sloppy day of drinking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare debenson0723 Posted November 16, 2022 #5 Share Posted November 16, 2022 My travel companion does not drink alcohol but still gets the FAS package because he drinks more than $20 a day in Diet Coke. He gets non-alcoholic Pina Coladas all the time and I even had them make him a non-alcoholic Raspberry Guava Mojito on the Escape (to go with my alcoholic one). As said above, the bartenders don't care. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruiseny4life Posted November 16, 2022 #6 Share Posted November 16, 2022 My husband doesn't drink. He's Russian, he should! But, he doesn't...in April we went with the Free at Sea. In September we did not. He was disappointed his soda package didn't cover virgin drinks outside of the Haven (I told him so, but you know spouses). Anyway, we're getting the Free at Sea for our March cruise - I want to drink all the booze I can handle (like 3 drinks a day) and he wants his virgin drinks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I shall drink enough booze and virgin drinks for a couple whilst traveling alone! Glug, glug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare New2cruise2022 Posted November 16, 2022 Author #8 Share Posted November 16, 2022 I have this vision of some bartender swiping my card and saying “Sir, this is your 5th beverage (virgin or otherwise) in the last hour …” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bartender on Getaway at Sugarcane is the cause of me drinking five per hour...I barely get one half finished and he's concocted another yummy drink for me. Sometimes it's ridiculous how much that guy got me to drink...ridiculous in a good way! He also makes fantastic virgin drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like a nice buzz that never ends, not a sloppy day of drinking. 3-2-1 method works well, but requires a bit of discipline. 3 drinks, 1 water, 2 drinks, 1 water, from then on out, 1 to 1 drinks to water…know where the restrooms are and don’t get on a heater at the craps table when doing this. nice little buzz…no pumpkin head in the morning.
