Morcruisin4Fun Posted February 4, 2009 #51 Share Posted February 4, 2009 That is why God invented the Bubba Mug!!!!!! What is a bubba mug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PACURN Posted February 4, 2009 #52 Share Posted February 4, 2009 No....but don't tell carnival...:p My problem is I have nothing to mix my rum with that I like now that they don't have punch. I liked that because gave a tropical flair to the drink...now there is nothing that I like. I'm with you. Maybe thats why they did away with it. Too many people mixing there own drinks. 'Course lemonade and vodka would be fine, but I prefer punch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C&THollings Posted February 4, 2009 #53 Share Posted February 4, 2009 That really sucks,:( I would mix the fruit punch with the lemonade, yummy, no additive need. That was all I drank on my last cruise. Carnival defiantly needs to bring it back!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david08 Posted February 4, 2009 #54 Share Posted February 4, 2009 I think people should start letting Carnival know how they feel about the fruit punch being discontinued. It is one of the main staples of going to a tropical place...who do they think they are not having it? I would rather see the lobster done away with than I would the fruit punch.:eek: How do you feel about this? NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Not the Lobster!!!:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolaAlive Posted February 4, 2009 #55 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Fruit punch was little more than sugar water. I'll stick with the lobster. For those who use it as a mixer, it should be no problem smuggling it on along with your booze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobsfamily Posted February 4, 2009 #57 Share Posted February 4, 2009 maybe the fruit punch was laced with peanut butter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjl1960 Posted February 4, 2009 Author #58 Share Posted February 4, 2009 I second this. I would be willing to lose the lobster and the shrimp and the sushi for fruit punch. Hell do away with the free drinks at the captains party, but bring back the fruit punch. Long live the fruit punch. Especially in the carribean. DEFINITELY would give up the sushi....yuck!!!

Morcruisin4Fun Posted February 4, 2009 #59 Share Posted February 4, 2009 I just had a thought, mixing a crystal light raspberry lemonade packet with the lemonade from the ship and a little (or a lot) of coconut rum. I think I just found my drink of choice for pool side. HA!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandij Posted February 5, 2009 #60 Share Posted February 5, 2009 My DH won't be happy, but rum straight isn't bad. He'll just bring his little packages of fruit punch he uses everyday, and they're sugar free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kujobie Posted February 5, 2009 #61 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Now my 90 pound, liquid filled suitcase will be 95 pounds because I have to bring Hawaiian Punch, too. Big deal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjl1960 Posted February 5, 2009 Author #62 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I am flying into LAX, then taking the shuttle to Long Beach, don't think they will stop for me to buy my punch to take with....and I am not going to pack as much as it would take, since I am already taking my rum runners filled with my favorite adult beverage.

zeppekitty Posted February 5, 2009 #66 Share Posted February 5, 2009 No problem bringing it on How did you bring all this? Did you pack it in a suitcase? Just check a 12 pack of soda? This is amazing! I'm impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiraryker Posted February 5, 2009 #68 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Now my 90 pound, liquid filled suitcase will be 95 pounds because I have to bring Hawaiian Punch, too. Big deal! TOO FUNNY!! I loved the punch! Mixed with my pineapple rum - that's the way to vacation on the islands!!!! It was wonderful - especially with the warm sun!! I tried other brands but they just don't taste the same:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alphakitty Posted February 5, 2009 #70 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Bring the fruit punch powder that comes in individual packets with you! Next time you are in the grocery store check out the powdered drink section. Lots to choose from and you can mix your drinks to your hearts content. Even get creative in flavors and such :D I can only find the singles in the sugar free version. Have you found them with sugar or only sugar free? I can't drink Nutrasweet/aspartame.

Thirsty Cruiser Posted February 5, 2009 #71 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Thanks for your comment. However' date=' it wasn't "police work"; only a random thought.......[/quote']LOL, of course. It was a reference to a line from the movie "Fargo". ;) :D Fruit punch was little more than sugar water. I'll stick with the lobster. For those who use it as a mixer, it should be no problem smuggling it on along with your booze. You are allowed by Carnival to bring a "small" amount of non-alcoholic beverages. You can carry it on, pack it, whatever. No need to smuggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigcraig Posted February 5, 2009 #73 Share Posted February 5, 2009 How did you bring all this? Did you pack it in a suitcase? Just check a 12 pack of soda? This is amazing! I'm impressed. We had just bought a new jumbo size luggage set on the (e)bay and only needed 9 suitcases for this 8 day trip but thats a different story, we used the largest suitcase and packed the drinks in it, the rum runners were gift wrapped just in case. We had a lot more that was not in the picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joaljoe Posted February 6, 2009 #74 Share Posted February 6, 2009 LOL Bigcraig - That's a lot of smuggling!! I'd just prefer the punch because I don't like lemonade or the iced tea. I'm not a drinker so I don't care about mixing and it's a lot easier to get your meal and just walk over to get juice than to worry about bringing your own juice to breakfast or lunch. But I drank the lemonade all week anyway...I've never had so much lemonade in my life!!! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUTTONS THE CABINBOY Posted February 6, 2009 #75 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I agree ,rum and lemonade just does not taste great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
