Drink prices?

[lilfish7]

Would like to know the cost of beer and well-drinks (I know it depends on the liquor) on the Emerald?

 

Thanks in advance!

To clarify why I'm asking:

 

The last cruise I went on I was with my parents and all my drinks etc magically were paid for! This time, I have a thing called a budget and my husband and I would like to know what to expect price wise!

We always get the beer by the bucket, buy four get one free. I think about $18 including the 15% for 5 beers. Mixed drinks about $6 plus gratituity. Sometimes there is a special of the day.

 

Hope this helps.

I really like Bacardi Cocktails (Bacardi Rum, Sweet and Sour and Grenadine ) and they charged $6.50 + 15%. I think thats a bit high but mixed drinks all appeared in that $6 range.

Just for an example, DW drank Kendall Jackson Cabernet at $7.75/glass.

 

My choice of poison was Henessey VSOP for $6.50.

 

I thought I got the better deal:D

I found this link which shows all the drink prices on the Sapphire I would imagine all the ships are the same..

I've noticed that the drink prices are about the same as a hotel bar. Typical since it's a floating hotel.

It depends on what part of the country you are from. A premium beverage on Princess is half the price you would pay for the same drink in a Manhattan hotel. The term "Floating Hotel" is very offensive since I have found that the experience on a cruise ship is far superior to any hotel I have stayed in.

I have found Princess' cocktail prices to be very reasonable.

 

My drink of choice is a Bombay Sapphire and tonic and their price is $5.75 with tip that comes to $6.61. If you know where I can find one for that price in the U. S. please direct me.:D

I find that the drink prices are similar to most of the restaurants we go to, as well as hotel bars but with better ambiance. To be on the safe side, I plan on about $100 per day which includes bar drinks, daily drink specials, and bottles of wine for dinner. I can't say I have ever gone over that, but it gives me a base. You're on vacation. Be prepared for a special bottle of wine or extra for the night you may end up in Skywalkers later than you thought. By the way, I drink Glenfiddich single malt scotch (double shots) and my DW is an Absolute fan (doubles) and we still stay within our budget.

Thanks y'all!

Thanks for the link! I agree that the drink prices seem very reasonable.

dont have a copy of the menu handy...but we always found the prices pretty similar to that of a downtown bar or restaurant here in SD

Coming from BC Canada, we found the drink prices to be GREAT:p

 

Dh really liked the bucket of beer as well as the Beverly Hills Iced tea (grey goose, bacardi, 1800 tequila, cointreau, lemon juice and sparkling wine) for $6.75

I loved the 24K Gold Rita (1800 tequila cointreau Grand Marnier and lime) it fact it is the best Margarita I have had outside of my own and Mexico.

 

My favourite sailaway cocktail is the Lush Champagne one....sparkling wine, Absolut Citron and Chambord.....one of those and I KNOW I am about to have 7 days of pure heaven :)

I was on the Emerald last October. I mainly drank Bass ale. The "Out The Door" price (incl tip) wass $5.00 per beer......:):):)

[MBP&O2/O]

An interesting price list.

 

Not as professional as one would hope :o

 

Jameson Irish Whiskey ~ correct spelling for whiskEy as it is Irish ~ is listed under Scotch :rolleyes:

 

........ but in the liqueur coffee list it is shown as whisky ......... as in the correct spelling for Scotch :eek:

 

I know - I am being pedantic :D but is has been a long lonnnnnnng day;)
