FishyMom1967 Posted July 16 #1 Share Posted July 16 I tried searching for this answer both here and on the NCL website, but couldn't find a list. My mother and friend will be on an NCL cruise at the end of August and were wondering what beverages would be included (and where) if not on a beverage package. My cruise next year include FAS, so I don't immediately know the answer. I'm thinking water, coffee, tea, maybe lemonade or iced tea at the buffet. What about MDR? Any fountain pop anywhere? I usually have a cocktail in the MDR, so again, never really thought about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asawi Posted July 16 #2 Share Posted July 16 In the buffet (and drinks stations outside) you will have juice in the morning and flavoured water during lunch/dinner. Coffee and tea is also available there. Soda has to be purchased. I'm not into iced tea so haven't thought about that. but there is ice available. And tea... But I THINK I have seen iced tea in the buffet, but may very well be wrong about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 1025cruise Posted July 16 #3 Share Posted July 16 Soda is never included in the base price, but you can buy a can. Just water, coffee, iced tea, lemonade are available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will be able to get reconstituted juices for breakfast (orange, apple, cran) and Ice Tea for lunch and dinners. The buffet also has flavored waters for lunch and dinner. Sodas, bottled water, energy drinks, fresh squeezed juices, specialty coffees all cost money. you can also get a soda-only package if you drink more than a couple of glasses a day.

Ellis1138 Posted July 17 #6 Share Posted July 17 (edited) There are also hot cocoa packets at the buffet (or you can ask for those, if they aren't visible.) Oh and if one is in the Studio cabins on a ship that has a Studio Lounge, you get free access to a coffee machine that makes espressos, lattes, capuccinos.

gizfish Posted July 17 #8 Share Posted July 17 The flavored waters available at the buffet drink stations are artificially sweetened and available in kiwi/strawberry and mango/peach. The iced tea is unsweetened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidOrawan Posted July 17 #10 Share Posted July 17 Whenever I got a soda from the bar they never took my key card just filled and handed to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Indecisive Posted July 17 #11 Share Posted July 17 Unless it's changed in the last 9 months, the buffet may also have single serve cartons of flavored milk - possibly breakfast time only? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9tee2Sea Posted July 17 #12 Share Posted July 17 here is a little trick I do for free specialty coffee. I fill a Tall plastic glass fro the buffet with ice. Then ad 1/2 hot coffee. The Ice of course will melt, then add some soft serve ice cream to the coffee glass. Add some sugar, fill the glass with more ice. It's a wonderful Specialty -like Iced Coffee drink, and it's free. Im not a Starbucks ( or specialty coffee drinker) ,so obviously, I cant tell the difference between a real specialty coffee, or my fake specialty coffee. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
