Nope, just the fully loaded kind. I carry crystal lite stix because of this.

Never seen "light" lemonade onboard. Just bring the individual packs of Crystal Light that you add to a bottle of water.

I did see Diet Sprite/Sprite Zero available. Otherwise the Crystal Light sticks are the only alternative. Can you get them in the UK?

[lawiggin]

Is diet sprite or sprite zero available in the bars? (going on Freedom)It is my favorite mix for whiskey but usually not available in bars.

No crystal light in the UK, my son likes the peach tea, and we get that sent over from the US.

Yes, I can usually find cans of Diet Sprite. If one bar doesn't have it, they can send someone to another bar to get it for you. :)

We always make our own diet lemonade. We take fresh lemon wedges and squeeze them into our water, add Equal or Splenda, stir, add a straw and voila - diet lemonade. It actually tastes better than any pre-packaged kind I've ever had. We ask our assistant waiter to bring lemon wedges and after the first night, they're always waiting for us on the table.

I too miss my diet lemondade. Very easy to make.

I always get several lemon slices and squeeze them into my ice water along with a couple of sugar substitutes...have been doing this in restaurants for years.

I also like iced coffee and find a large glass of ice with some milk or cream and coffee right from the spout makes a great cold drink. You can add sugar substitute but I like my coffee without.

wow Susan! posted same info at same time...

we'd make good tablemates!

Or just drink water.

I was a diet pepsi addict for years.

I can only find crystal light (which looks like a great product) in the us or on ebay:( :( :( never mind i suppose i will have to work the extra sugar off in the gym:)

[Forchunut1]

Oh my gosh! No Crystal Light in the UK??? I don't know what I would do! I lost 75 pounds last year in 5 months and I drank TONS of Crystal Light when I was doing it! :)

we are thinking about getting the soda card. Do they have Diet Sprite available in fountain or just cans?

Diet pepsi doesn't contain splenda (sucralose) it contains aspartame. Crystal light contains aspartame also, not splenda. Pepsi One contains surcralose (splenda)

So, Susan, what is the highest number of lemons that you ever used at one sitting? ;) ;) ;) :D

Just cans. One of the reasons that I'll never get the soda card.

How many wedges do you squeeze into a glass of water? Sounds like a lot of work. :D

[cruisnpat]

I would think you would need a lot of lemon for a glass of lemonaid. think I'll try that.

[alwayshappytocruise]

Newbie...I have family coming to stay for a couple of weeks from Lancashire. Do you want me to send some Crystal Light lemonade back with them to mail to you....easy fix! Just let me know.

I just got off the Adventure and they had Sprite Zero available everywhere. I did use the soda card and it was not a problem.

 

I was pleasantly surprised. No caffeine!:D

My DH never had a problem getting a can of Diet Sprite with his soda card.
