You can check it as baggage (6 bottles duty-free). The US Virgin Islands are a port of entry into the US Mainland. You will have to fill out the standard Customs form just as if you flew in from London. Bring your passport. You can get through without one, but CBP will ask you lots of questions.

Ive flown into and out of STT and SJU many times and and never with a passport and have never been questioned by CBP, harassed by the "brain trust" in blue just about every time.
