What is your opinion of the lemonade?

[Cruisin 4 Ever]

There was a thread on facebook today where everyone was complaining about the iced tea. How is the lemonade in your opinion? Are there any other free options?

 

I like it. I usually manage to find a wedge of lemon to squeeze in it for a little extra zing, and it's quite good

[crusinpsychRN]

I like it. It's good mixed with almost anything too. Put a little grenadine in it and it's yummy!

As dispensed, it's just plain too sweet for our taste - problem for us is not being too strong or too sour, those are fine - as it's excessively sugarly.

 

Dilute it with water first & it's fine. If taking it elsewhere with our BPA-free water bottle, we just transfer plenty of crushed ice from the Lido before filling it up with lemonade, with a clean plastic cup indirectly, of course (unlike many we observed doing otherwise - in plain sight with the posted reminder sign)

 

Off topic, same with morning OJ in the buffet & MDR, too sweet & I feel for those with diabetic conditions.

Last cruise it was too sweet. Mix it half/half with iced tea or water

[Colorado Kat]

Instead of the lemonade, I squeeze a couple of lemon slices into a glass of ice water. Lemon-tasting but no sugar.

I agree that the lemonade is a little bit too strong straight out of the machine. I like to mix mine 50/50 with vodka. :D

 

Bahahaha! My thoughts exactly!:D:p

Two words for both threads: Arnold Palmer! :D

The only way to drink either one.

I love the lemonade and the hot chocolate. I like the guava passion juice in the morning, it is a little sweet so I put about 1/4 orange juice and stir it up to make it just right !!

Exactly!

[The4Cruisers]

I mix 1/3 cup of water into 2/3 cup of lemonade.

[Vitamin_Sea]

Its very sweet. I usually do the 50/50 Ice tea/ Lemonade and ice.

[cuthbert732]

It me gives me the worst heartburn even if i add water.

[LandlockedCruiser01]

I find the lemonade to be too concentrated. The way it comes out of the dispenser, it tastes like eating Country Time Lemonade powder straight out of the can. If I'm drinking it as something to wash down the food with, I dilute it 50:50 with water or iced tea, otherwise it overpowers the food. And if I'm drinking it to quench thirst, I have to dilute it 90:10 with water; or I decide "screw it" and get a nice cold beer :D.

[Aplmac]

I always mix mine with water. 3/4 lemonade 1/4 water. I don't like the taste of it straight up.

Yes, it's a little too concentrated and sour for my taste

coming straight out of the machine.

 

Depends on the day and the machine, too

bcoz I've found different strengths on different days.

Put ice in your cup, run a little water, then fill up with Lemonade.

Stir!

I actually like it.. It is very refreshing but what I also like to do is add it to the Iced Tea.. makes a good thing even better!!

[cruise_girl2002]

I love the lemonade!!!

Can we start a petition to bring back the fruit punch?:D

[Texasl8dy]

We like the lemonade!

[mikel24m]

We do what most do and mix the ice tea with lemonade and its pretty good

As far as other free things to drink bring yourself a couple of sports bottles and fill those in the morning with the mango/guava/ fruit juice that's good with vodka or rum too:)

[Lady N Red]

Lemonade and ice cream.. is the answer.

[Timmys_mom]

I agree that the lemonade is a little bit too strong straight out of the machine. I like to mix mine 50/50 with vodka. :D

I concur.

[rskater59]

We are bringing some crystal light on the go mixes and drops. That way a variety for the cruise.

[erby2283]

Strong but I like it!

I'm with you on this! I am not a fan of lemonade all day long. Sometimes it's too sour and sometimes it's to sweet and I don't like ice tea at all

[Mandy923]

THe Tea was really really gross!

 

But my kids fell in LOVE with the Lemonade! I did mix it 1/2 water 1/2 lemonade and it was just right for them.

I'm more of a water drinker- but I did taste their glasses and I thought it was fresh tasting.
