jks336 Posted September 22, 2010 #26 Share Posted September 22, 2010 ok, maybe ima being a little dense here, but isnt that still smuggling?and at a total of $46, why not just legally buy a bottle from the bon voyage dept.? baf because depending on what your choice of drink is the cost can be lower. example, i drink jack daniels, bon voyage, $65.00 for a litre. BUT, with that said, still works out a good deal. of course depending on how strong one likes their drink lol. but "basic" 1 1/2 oz shots you get 22 drinks from a litre. bring your own soda, so would break down approx 3.75 a drink. then of course if your out and about you'll have to run back to your cabin for another drink.. (bring a large travel mug lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topazz11 Posted September 23, 2010 #28 Share Posted September 23, 2010 They are gross. Cheap liquor and they tasted like plastic. We threw out the whole bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bottles from Bon Voyage are mostly 1 liter = 33oz, and for $46 or less you have several choices of decent stuff... delivered right to your room with no smuggling required. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul's_wife Posted March 29, 2012 #30 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I just googled them on line and they were $12.99 for one bag of 20 (I think). When I did it up as an order the shipping was $28.00. No thanks! I'll buy my liquor from Bon Voyage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyrisong1 Posted March 29, 2012 #32 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Hi- time wine cellars sell the pocket shots online, 15.00 for a bag of 12, I didn't bother checking for shipping. I agree, buy a bottle from Bon Voyage, handier and you know what you are getting!!! Carole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDeb2 Posted March 29, 2012 #33 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I do take them on a cruise. But I always order from Bon Voyage Dept too. They are really good to take to outdoor functions like concerts, etc. I actually take them on an airplane in my ziploc bag along with my other 3oz. stuff. The TSA nor the airline have ever said anything to me about them. As long as they are mixed with something else they are ok...it is more for convenience than for taste......

silvercrikhix Posted March 29, 2012 #34 Share Posted March 29, 2012 We saw several varieties at a liquor store in Tampa. Seemed to be cheap booze. We passed. Great idea, but it's worth it for us to have name brand liquor. Do not want a cheap booze headache on vacation! yuck......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boobear1 Posted March 29, 2012 #35 Share Posted March 29, 2012 IMO I prefer to stick with drunk gummy bears if I want a quick shot of something tasty. Almost the same as doing a jello shot but it just looks like a bag of gummy bears and nobody knows the difference...until they taste one! You can walk around the ship all day long eating them and nobody will have a clue :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4hunters Posted March 29, 2012 #36 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Those stores are no where near Long Beach. The closest is Costa Mesa which may take you 2-3 hours round trip depending on traffic. 2-3 hours from Long Beach to Costa Mesa? Come on, traffic on the 405 is not that bad! :eek::D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make them! Add liquor to bag....seal....soak....eat! Although, with all the press they are getting lately on CC, the gummi bag shakers are likely to be called in soon!

boobear1 Posted March 30, 2012 #39 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Make sure you use the good flavored gummy bears (not the cheap kind). Put them in a pan, cover them in your favorite alcohol and let them set for a few days in the refrigertor. And watch their little bellys swell up as they absorb the all the great flavor of your favorite beverage! Then you have a great little snack with a punch :) If you're careful when you open the original package you can reseal it so you'll have to look really close if it was ever opened and since the gummies don't look much different...well it's hard to tell!

bajaed69 Posted May 20, 2012 #43 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Porta shots taste like porta potty water! Tried the RUM and the Vodka, both were good for mixing. Bought them in Florida for a two cruise back to L.A. on the NCL. Next cruise is on the Star for 28 days in the Pacific. Will try them there also.
