Pineapple juice

[kdoc84]

My fiancee is very fond of Malibu rum mixed with pineapple juice. I was going to surprise her with a bottle of Malibu from Bon Voyage but I wasn't sure about the pineapple juice. Could I bring some on with us? I'm thinking buying some small containers/cans of it since I don't think a large container would keep very well in the fridge from what I've heard about their lackluster ability to keeps things cold. Any suggestions?

 

Thanks!

Bring on small containers~ the only place to get it free is in the MDR for breakfast~ it's not offered on the room service menu and the Lido doesn't carry it~you could buy a soda card and get it at bars for free but I think it would be easier to bring it~

you can get a few glasses of the juice at breakfast and bring them to your cabin and put them in the fridge. they will stay cold. but there is always ice at the drink machines anyway

You can get pineapple juice from a bar- for a cost (buy a soda card and its included)

 

or go to the main dining room at breakfast. (ask for a small carafe and keep it in the fridge.

 

You will not find pineapple juice at the buffet or for room service.

 

you can also pick some up in the ports you will be visiting

I make pineapple upside down martinis, so I always bring 3 or 4 small cans on my own. I carry it on with my daily allotment of 1 Diet Dr Pepper as well as my other mixers.

what's a pineapple upside down martini? what ever it is, it has fruit so it must be good for you. ;)

are you driving or flying to the port. that might make a difference too

It is delicious is what it is!

 

I'll make them for my girlfriends when we have get togethers. Everyone loves them. Ideally you make them with vanilla vodka, amaretto, and pineapple juice. Tastes just like pineapple upside down cake (put a cherry in the bottom of your martini glass). I wing it on the ship though with my Bon Voyage stuff unless some vanilla vodka happens to fall into my luggage somehow...

Come on over! We will likely get together this weekend to say goodbye to a friend. This duty station is the worst thing for my poor liver LOL

 

But yeah, OP, just buy a 6 pack of the little cans. Depending on your ports, you may or may not be able to replenish your stock at port, but you can always get a little from the MDR in the morning.

We are flying in the night before and will have a rental car for that night/next morning. Looks like the easiest thing will be to grab a package of the small cans that morning before turning in the car and bringing that with us.

 

Thanks everyone for the responses! And no worries about the thread hijack! She may like that drink too!

BTW PJ in DR is very good, much better than the OJ.

Dark Rum and Pineapple Juice...or as I like to call it, Summer in a cup!:D

[cruise_pirate]

I was able to order it from room service but they charge something nominal like a dollar

[kapcruiser]

Never thought to get pineapple juice fron mdr to bring back to room.

[cruisegirl29]

I did this the last cruise. I purchased malibu from BV. Then I brought on 6 cans of Pineapple Juice & 6 bottles of Cranberry Juice (under 20 ozs ea). I was able to mix it up! Plus my DH purchased a Soda Card & everyone once in a while he would get me the Fruit Juice.. Don't flame me for him getting it for me. LOL...

 

I sail again in a few weeks.. already purchased my Malibu! I will bring PJ & CB juice on again!

 

Happy Sailing!

I use Liquor 43 instead of amaretto, less almond and more pound cake flavor. Totally yummy!

Just juiced a pineapple today and had it with light rum, Malibu, and a dash of maraschino cherry juice and crushed ice. Yum. The fresh juice was amazing.

I would bring thermos and do this.

[djwood24]

I am bringing a dole six pack of small cans...not carrying soda...just juices

I don`t mind paying $1.95 for a soda for a mixer

 

The OJ on lido is ok for mixing...just not that good as a screwdriver...but add pineapple...it works

[Jennfor5]

I would bring thermos and do this.

If you have the soda card and want a thermos of Cranberry juice for your room would they do that? Or would they say no?

[lidodeckbound]

Delish!

[nw2this]

I don't think a large container would keep very well in the fridge from what I've heard about their lackluster ability to keeps things cold.

 

So should I just forget about trying to freeze my margarita popsicles in the fridge?

I just HATE how that happens sometimes! ;)
