hfdad Posted February 14, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Sailing on Mardi Gras the 18th and was wondering if orange juice is served at breakfast for no additional charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mz-s Posted February 14, 2023 #2 Share Posted February 14, 2023 supposed to be, yes...in the MDR anyway. On Lido it's a guava juice "cocktail" that is disgustingly sweet and artificial tasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BasicSailor Posted February 14, 2023 #3 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Staff will push the fresh squeezed orange juice for a fee in the MDR. You may have request the regular OJ. The OJ on Lido is some sort of OJ substitute that really does not taste that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare starstruck05 Posted February 14, 2023 #4 Share Posted February 14, 2023 There is OJ in the drink stations on the lido in the morning. I love that Guava, Passion Orange juice so I've always just had that so I can't attest to how it tastes. I have had OJ in the dining room for brunch that is good and I've never been asked to purchase fresh squeezed. Not sure if that's new in recent weeks but I was just on a cruise in January. The only juice for pay I know of is the mixed fresh pressed juice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I carry a Yeti just to fill with this every morning and enjoy it on the balcony in the late afternoons. . 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to be clear what's served in both the buffet and at brunch Isn't Orange JUICE. It's an Orange DRINK. http://barbusinesstt.com/fruit-juice-vs-fruit-drink-whats-the-difference/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theosprey247 Posted February 15, 2023 #8 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Actually it’s labeled as a cocktail. Too sugary for me so I water it down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to US laws, when sold stateside, unless it's an actual orange JUICE, from concentrate or otherwise (doesn't need to be fresh-squeezed; if it was kept in a steel tank for a year, it still counts), it's a DRINK.

Rare BoozinCroozin Posted February 15, 2023 #12 Share Posted February 15, 2023 The juice dispensers are concentrated whatever. The machine does not mix the right amount of water with the substance. I had to fill a glass 1/3 with water and 2/3 from the juice to cut it. It helped, but was never great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do the same thing with the iced tea, which I actually like with a little bit of lemonade mixed in. It's far too strong straight from the tap.

groundloop Posted February 16, 2023 #14 Share Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) To the OP's question, yes, you can always get OJ at breakfast or brunch for free. Sometimes a staff member will come around pushing "fresh squeezed" juices for $5 per glass, but the regular OJ is always free. AND I've never had any complaints about the OJ either from the machines in the buffet or in the MDR, I guess some people are a lot pickier than me. (And I grew up in Florida with orange trees in our backyard). Also, the Passion Fruit Cocktail, when it's available, goes great with rum. 😁 Edited February 16, 2023 by groundloop 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
