alcohol choices

Postby Travelqueen » Thu Jul 10, 2014 9:25 am

can someone please tell me if Pearl has the following alcohol choice?

Seagrams 7?
Malibu rum
Sweet tea vodka
Italian pinot grigio wine
Baileys
Grand Manier

Just want to be prepared and know if our favorites are there. Hubby likes his cocktails!
Thanks!

I saw Malibu and they had an off brand of "Bailey's". Did not notice the others on the list. As far as the pinot grigio, perhaps on the wine list, for an extra fee, but that's not the white they were pouring.

I found it interesting that they poured high end vodka (grey goose), but were sorely lacking in the scotch-whiskey-bourbon category. The JW Black they had was definitely watered down or something, and there were no single malts or quality bourbons to be found.

Thanks for the feedback. I've read posts where people have mentioned grey goose and bailey's, but since it isn't listed on the standard Pearl alcohol list, I thought I'd ask the question about a few of our favorites. I sure do hope they have Malibu p my fav mixed with pineapple and cranberry...a great ALL day drink! My hubby will be very disappointed if they don't have Grand Manier or Seagrams...I guess we could bring our own, but that kind of defeats the purpose of paying for all inclusive.

We are also Malibu fans, but it was a bit hit and miss! Sometimes it was genuine Malibu, sometimes the "equivalent" (nasty). We were there with some member friends who managed to secure a bottle for our exclusive use, but otherwise I would advise actually watching what they pour, as asking for Malibu doesn't guarantee that's what you'll get. The same applied to Absolut vs non-specific vodka, and is why I'd rather walk to the bar to see what is being poured than rely on the (fabulous) pool waitresses.
Also, there is no longer a choice of house wine, Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay has now been replaced by a blended grape variety (I think it was Chardonay/Semillion), still drinkable!

I definitely saw Grand Marnier when we were there, and 1 or more varieties of Malibu. The house whites are Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.

I can't recall if Pearl has club soda bottle or on tap. Can someone refresh my memory?

The bartenders are very accommodating to mix up a cocktail geared to your taste.

I'm pretty sure that all soda served there is bottled.

Club soda is definitely bottled.

Travelqueen, neither resort stocks Seagram's 7. However, during our most recent trips to both resorts they had Crown Royal, which is my Canadian whiskey of choice. They also have Canadian Club.

We get in friday. RIght now I would drink dishwater if I could be there right now instead of working these last few days.
Never had an issue with the alcohol choices there. It all tastes better in the sun anyways.

We are arriving for our first trip in October. This is basically what we're thinking ourselves. We care less about what they pour than where they pour it! We have a great bar at home...but our house is sadly lacking in beaches, discos and people. :wink:
Have a great day! Hope to see you in the future.
