Safemike1 Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 On the Oasis of the Seas, I don't really want to purchase the refreshment package since I don't really drink much soda. So are there other free options available such as lemonade or fruit punch available? RCIfan1912 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 Lemonade and some sort of fruity drink which may vary by the day. PhillyLady and RCIfan1912 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neesa Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 For what it's worth they serve complimentary ice tea as well, I ask for un sweetened and it's oddly bitter yet oddly slightly sweet. It's just weird. I actually enjoy the lemonade though. The ships water isn't terrible either. I usually get ice water with every meal.

CrznTxn Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 In most of the free dining venues throughout the ship they have lemonade, water and sometimes tea or fake fruit drink.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinJ Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 My wife can't drink carbonated beverages, so when she has had the refreshment package since I had the DBP, she would either get juices from the bar or one of the flavored waters out of the soda machines. Our next cruise we all just got the soda package, $7.99 during black Friday. She will just use the soda machines. Also got her a coffee card as she has to have her Latte's.

FrankS Posted April 16, 2023 Report Share Posted April 16, 2023 Is there a difference between the free lemonade you can find throughout the ship and the lemonade from the coke machines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. The lemonade in the Freestyle machines is Minute Maid and requires a soda package or above. The free lemonade is made from a concentrate.

I thought you need at least the soda package for that I have always gotten lemonade in the MDR. I have also always had a drink package so far BUT because of the lag in drink service, I very very very rarely order a cocktail or wine there, so they would not know I had one. There is (usually) lemonade in the dispensers in the Windjammer too. Sometimes there is fruit punch or at breakfast apple or cranberry juice. As mentioned, it is a concentrate - I saw them refilling the machines in Windjammer on Quantum and it was: Nestle Vitality Concentrate Lemonade Beverage Base. The stuff in the MDR tastes exactly the same and both even have a little pulp. I usually drink a couple glasses at dinner - give it a shot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCSC Mike Posted April 17, 2023 Report Share Posted April 17, 2023 Our favorite free drink (when we can find it as it varies by ship, cruise, etc.) is the strawberry kiwi flavored water. I like the mango too. You can usually get them from the machines on Coco Cay as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmattinson Posted April 17, 2023 Report Share Posted April 17, 2023 Just off Oasis - the free drink dispensers are in Park Cafe, behind El Loco Fresh on the sports deck, the Solarium buffet (when open) and inside the Windjammer. Also, there is coffee, hot water (for ~8 different types of hot tea and hot cocoa, and iced water (both plain and orange slices [I didn't taste the orange]) in the Cafe Promenade. There was also water sometimes outside on the boardwalk next to the hot dog location but it wasn't always there when open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadvocal Posted April 18, 2023 Report Share Posted April 18, 2023 I mix the free iced tea with the free lemonade and make an Arnold Palmer. Delicious! FloatyBoaty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
