Smoothies?

[cheffip]

My wife has developed a new passion for smoothies lol.

 

Does Celebrity make them and are they covered by the Classic beverage package?

[tigermom2016]

Just back from a cruise on Reflection. We were able to get smoothies with our classic beverage package. They make them at the Aqua Spa Cafe!

When we were on the Equinox a year ago, the smoothies at the Aqua Spa Cafe were only free if you had the premium beverage package. I did not see smoothies offered anywhere else. They were really good and super healthy.

[Mr. Click]

If you are in Aqua an dining in Blu they have smoothies included.

We were on Solstice last September and smoothies were included in the Classic beverage package at the Aqua Spa Cafe........and are they good! They are also included in Aqua room service and in Blu restaurant. I had one at least once a day. There are several varieties and it is fun to drink your way through the menu! :p:p:p

what kind of smoothies do they offer? Is the Aqua Cafe by the pool?

So happy to hear they are now included with classic package. I actually upgraded to premium on that cruise mostly for the smoothies!

They have always been part of the Classic package . The smoothies have a lot of different names like detox and similar. Frankly I find them quite bland in taste because of all the so called good bits added.

What we've done is go to the buffet in the Oceanview Cafe (on Solstice) and select the fresh fruits we want plus a yoghurt and take them to bar which is near the entrance to the Oceanview Cafe on the Port side and they will blend them all up for you. I'd then take them back to our cabin for breakfast. So it looks like you have 2 options - Aqua Spa or Ocean View

I had never considered that option. Thank you

We have had smoothies at the Elite breakfast on several cruises. They are usually strawberry or mixed berry.

Here is a copy of the menu that someone posted previously.

 

There has been some debate about the "freshly squeezed" orange juice.

I'd like to add that we did almost the same thing, and in addition filled a plate with Spinach to add to the blender. We were so healthy way back then..........

Love Slush! On our Nov trip on the Equinox my DH and I would always stop by and pick up an icy, fruity drink at Slush when we got back on the boat after a long, hot day on shore. My DH had to get his without alcohol because he had the classic package but I could get the boozy version because I had the premier drink package.

Thanks for posting. I wonder if those are the regularly available smoothie flavors?

[vadell]

I loved the mango smoothie. it did alter in flavour depending on where you picked up from. Available on the classic package when we were on board.

[misha1]

What is this Slush bar you speak of? We are sailing on Reflection in a few weeks...is it on board there? What kind of beverages are served?

[dkjretired]

In June on the Summit at Aqua Spa Cafe they were not covered under the classic package. Had to pay for it, only drink all week on our bill.

On the Eclipse, Slush is located in a "kiosk" by the women's bathroom prior to the solarium doors on the starboard side of the ship. I am on the Eclipse right now and it is only open on sea days from noon-3:00. I never saw it open last year. Two years ago it was the sunscreen/sunglass "kiosk" and I never saw it open then either. My sister had the $12 mint chocolate alcoholic slush and said it was awesome (free with her Premium Beverage Package) -- two Oreos, Bailey's, peppermint schnapps, ice cream mix, ice cubes, etc.

Here's the Eclipse's AquaSpa Cafe smoothies menu (Deck 12, Port, in the Solarium, 7-10 AM, noon-2:30 PM):

I'll try posting the menus using a different resolution since the photos above seem blurry to me once in CruiseCritic. If they aren't any better I'm out of ideas!!

The concierge rooms have them on their breakfast menu. But the couple days we tried them, they were room temperature and like drinking fruit flavored milk. :p Glad there was no charge. (We gave it a try twice.)

I am what you might call a smoothie "expert." Half of my diet at home is juicing and smoothies. I was soooo disappointed in AquaSpa's smoothies, in fact we tried 3 different ones and then gave up. Maybe it varies from ship to ship and who's making them, but they were terrible. One was a yogurt blend, one was detox, and a fruit mix. I am normally Celebrity's biggest fan, but not in this department!

I actually love those smoothies. I would pay for them.
