The cruise industry is witnessing a seismic shift in passenger drinking preferences, and Princess Cruises is leading the charge. The latest addition to their exclusive Love Line Premium Liquors collection – Blake Lively’s Betty Booze and Betty Buzz brands – signals a deeper understanding of what today’s cruise passengers really want in their glasses.

As someone who’s tracked cruise industry trends for years, I’m particularly excited about this partnership. Why? Because it perfectly captures three major shifts we’re seeing in cruise beverage consumption:

  1. The Rise of Mindful Drinking
    Gone are the days when cruise beverages meant choosing between alcohol or soft drinks. Today’s cruisers want options that align with their wellness-focused lifestyles. Betty Buzz’s non-alcoholic offerings and Betty Booze’s low-ABV options provide exactly that – premium alternatives that don’t compromise on taste or experience.
  2. Premium Quality Becomes Standard
    The Love Line Premium Liquors collection has already set a high bar with partnerships including Matthew McConaughey’s Pantalones Organic Tequila and Pitbull’s Voli 305 Vodka. Blake Lively’s alcohol brand brings something unique to this prestigious lineup – a commitment to clean ingredients and innovative flavor combinations like Sparkling Bourbon with Peach Honey Mint.
  3. Health-Conscious Options
    What’s particularly noteworthy about this partnership is the emphasis on quality ingredients. Betty Buzz’s gluten-free, non-alcoholic mixers and Betty Booze’s lower-calorie offerings reflect a growing demand for healthier beverage options at sea. The brands’ impressive market performance – with Betty Buzz ranking #3 on Amazon’s best sellers in soft drinks – validates this approach.

For Princess Cruises passengers, this means unprecedented choice. Whether you’re sipping Betty Booze’s Sparkling Tequila with Smoky Pineapple by the pool or mixing a craft mocktail with Betty Buzz’s Ginger Beer at sunset, these beverages are included in both Princess Plus and Princess Premier packages across all 16 ships in the fleet.

What makes this partnership particularly significant is its timing. As cruise lines emerge from recent industry challenges, they’re racing to meet evolved passenger preferences. Princess Cruises’ expansion of Love Line Premium Liquors shows they’re not just meeting these preferences – they’re anticipating them.

The Bottom Line

This isn’t just another celebrity partnership. It’s a strategic move that positions Princess Cruises at the forefront of cruise industry beverage trends. With both brands garnering billions of media impressions and numerous industry awards, this addition to Love Line Premium Liquors collection represents a new standard in cruise line beverage programs.
