OSUZorba Posted January 10, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2020 I'm about to go on my first cruise as a Diamond, but neither DW or I drink. We do like virgin frozen drinks though. Can you use the Diamond coupons for virgin drinks or Starbucks? Or is it just wasted on you if you don't drink? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen drinks with or without alcohol are not included with the Diamond drinks. Starbucks is not included either. You are limited to drinks on the Diamond drinks list. You would be be able to get soda or bottled water. Edited January 10, 2020 by Ourusualbeach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get soda or bottled water. Coffee available from machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSUZorba Posted January 10, 2020 Author #6 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Thanks for the replies. It's what I figured, kind of disappointing, but oh well. I'll be in the SL also, so maybe I should see if I can sweet talk the concierge into getting me one ;). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogbay Posted January 10, 2020 #7 Share Posted January 10, 2020 The concierge will have to find a blender , and the mixers first. 😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottraveller Posted January 10, 2020 #8 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Heineken is on the diamond list and it doesn’t specify whether that’s with alcohol or without. Heineken 00 is normally stocked on the ship and I have never had a problem getting it as one of my three. If the bartender queries it I tell them I get it in the lounge, which I do and it’s never an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSUZorba Posted January 29, 2020 Author #11 Share Posted January 29, 2020 According to a certain blog, Frozen Virgin drinks have been added to the diamond happy hour menu :). I guess I just needed to post a thread and Royal listens (yeah right). The changed menu was on Mariner, hopefully it goes fleet wide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTO-Girl Posted January 30, 2020 #19 Share Posted January 30, 2020 On the Harmony my husband had no problem getting a Pina Colada but they would not put the alcohol in it. So every time he ordered one they brought him the drink with a shot on the side for him to mix his own. Extra tip money in the Diamond Lounge will go a long way to a few favors...

We were on the Dec. 29th sailing and I don’t think they had added the frozen drinks to the menu yet. Not sure when that was implemented.... Hubby just asked on a whim for a Pina Colada and that’s when they brought the virgin drink with the shot. I asked our server why and he just said they weren’t allowed to add it to the drink, but we could. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
