Monarch-Coke products: what does that include?

[lissaw16]

First-time cruiser, on Monarch 2/23 for 4 nights...

 

Wondering what sodas were available on-board... I don't drink caffeine, and I would prefer not to drink too much sugar if I can avoid it. At home I buy caffeine-free diet Pepsi/Coke, or diet Sprite. Are any of these available, or is it just the standard Coke-Diet Coke-Sprite-Mello Yello like at most US restaurants?

Unfortunately RCCL doesn't appear to have entered the caffeine free coke world.... we bring on our own.....

I was offered Caffeine free Diet Coke on AOS on my January cruise as well as regular Diet Coke.

 

I've become addicted to Coke Zero. That's what I would have liked to have had.

Agree with this 100%. However, I've always had a hard time finding Coke Zero at fountain locations.

They have Diet Sprite available in the cans. Some people have reported being able to ask and get caffeine free diet coke in the can in a couple of bars on a few ships, but I haven't ever seen it on my cruises.

I know on Sovereign and on Liberty I was able to buy Caffeine Free Diet Coke, but b/c I don't always know if I will be able to or not, I always take some with me.

Well, since you leave on Monarch tomorrow, can you report back? :D

Sure will. I will put a post out on Monday when we get back.

Although I had taken my own Caffeine Free Diet Coke, I did ask the bartender and he said they do have the Caffeine Free Diet Coke in the cans. So you should be good!

Thanks! You answered more than one question. I guess I'm going to skip the soda card now, since my "drink of choice" is only in cans... and better yet, I think I will just bring a 12-pack of my favorite (which happens to be Caffeine Free Diet PEPSI anyway), and just order a glass of ice as needed.

 

14 days and counting!

For cruising, I love buying the little 8 oz bottles of Diet Caffeine free coke. They are just the perfect size for something in the morning. I keep a cooler in the room and have the room attendant keep ice on it, so my coke is nice and cold in the morning when I get back from the gym.

 

All the soda is coke products though, so if you are a pepsi drinker, then I would just take your own.
