"Grown-up" mocktails

[travelgirl06]

We are cruising in a few weeks, and I am expecting, so I'll be sticking to mock tails this trip. Just wondering if anyone knows of any "grown-up" (read: not ridiculously sweet/fufu-drink) mocktails that they would recommend? Last year DH and I really enjoyed Skyline, and I'm thinking the bartenders in there should be able to come up with something nice, but anything else not-to-be-missed?

We're also doing Remy - any suggestions for non-alcoholic drinks there, or should I just stick to good old h2o?

Thanks for asking this! I am also cruising pregnant and wondering the same.

When my DW was expecting she "drank" either club soda or tonic with lime. A virgin bloody mary might work if you like tomato juice.

I'm not sure what you mean by FuFu drinks, but last week, I drank virgin Piña Colava's ... Piña colada with no alcohol plus raspberry syrupy stuff run around the inside of the glass.
It was lovely but very sweet ... Conrad the bar man also made me a passion fruit one and a strawberry one as I don't drink alcohol.

Each night on the dinner menu a non-alcoholic cocktail is offered. I believe there is also a non-alcoholic drink of the day as well as an alcoholic one.

My favorite mocktail is virgin mojito. I just ensure that they use club soda and simple syrup rather than Sprite or 7up...

Remy has a non-alcoholic pre-dinner cocktail that sounded amazing!
Be sure to let them know when they contact you about getting together for a wine pairing consultation. We had an amazing time- hope you do too!

I found this clip doing a web search:
Non-Alcoholic Cocktails

New options created by mixologists are made with fresh ingredients and better-for-you options! Organic spirits, fresh fruits and herbs, and lower calorie no-sugar-added fruit purees were the prime ingredient focus for these drinks.

Try the Purple Basil Lemonade mixed with cranberry juice, sparkling water, lime, and fresh basil; or the Mint Tea Punch crafted with English breakfast tea, cranberry and pineapple juices, fresh lime juice, and agave nectar with a splash of sparkling water.

Weve got review of mocktails from the Disney Dream right here! Check it out. :http://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2011/05/20/disney-dream-guest-review-non-alcoholic-specialty-drinks/

Don't forget 'The Bloody Shame' aka Virgin Bloody Mary.

We enjoyed virgin pina coladas while cruising through the Panama Canal. very refreshing on a hot, humid(!) day.

Remy's nonalcoholic cocktail is quite good too.

Remy did a wonderful job of making "mocktails" for my friends when we dined there. They even paired them to their meals as if they had ordered the wine pairing. Do not be shy about asking them to do it for you when you dine up there. it was very impressive.

This is the drink I miss the most! I will definitely be ordering this!

Thanks all! I'm glad I won't be stuck with just water and smoothie-type drinks (although I'll probably indulge in at least one...). I'm also excited about virgin mojitos, I got one at a bar in our town last pregnancy and it was such a nice treat

both my DD really liked the Princess Delight... a mango drink

Great post - I'm expecting as well, and cruising next week. This may be a silly or obvious question, but are all of the above mentioned "mocktails" sold at an additional charge? I'm pretty sure they are in many instances - like virgin drink of the day, and smoothies, but for drinks that are just a mix of juices and club soda, are these extra as well? If so, I'll probably just stick to water. On our last cruise, we were surprised at how much of a bar tab we racked up over 8 nights... and we aren't even heavy drinkers! Since I can't enjoy wine this time, maybe I'll just take that money and splurge on something else this trip!

Yes. Anything you order at the bar including soda had a charge. If you want free soda, head to the beverage station.
