I dont drink soda, but I do enjoy Pure Leaf teas. I also like Propel, Gatorade, and especially the Starbucks frappachinos. If those are all actually available on board as part of Bubbles, I may end up purchasing. the Pure Leaf, Propel, Gatorade and Starbucks will not be part of Bubbles, but will be a part of the alcohol package.

And worth what you spent to read it. Although I’m not a fan of Pepsi, drinking only Diet Coke, I’m not happy about the switch, but I’m certainly not getting hysterical about it. I do not select my cruise lines based on what soda is served. I drink so little soda, anyways. I imagine that the Coke I ordered for my cabin will now be Diet Pepsi. Oh, well. I’ll deal with it. 😜 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisingguy007 Posted November 13, 2019 #80 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Unfortunately, it looks like the naked juices won't be included in the cheers package. Still a net positive with the bubble water, Gatorade, Pure Leaf teas, and Starbucks selections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he can develop a taste for Mr. Pibb which is a Pepsi product. I've done it in a pinch and they both contain prune juice! 🙂 Actually if you look pibb is a Coke product also Edited November 13, 2019 by patrickiii Wrong word Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone who's sailed NCL know how they handle that? Can you ONLY get Pepsi products or do they have a supply of Coke for the bar? Having been in the pop industry for 18 years if a cruiseline, ballpark, theatre, or any other venue has a "contract" with a soda company that companies products will be served exclusively. There is big money paid for that exclusivity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALWAYS CRUZIN Posted November 13, 2019 #84 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Switching, not so fast. This is in the soda package information Excludes beverages offered via vending machines, but includes Coke Freestyle machines where available (coming soon).

My apologies to Coke Corporate in Atlanta 😉 Dr. Pepper is owned by Kuerig but has a deal with both Coke and Pepsi to allow it to be in both fountain line-ups. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cushing985 Posted November 13, 2019 #88 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Not a big deal for me. I'm not a fan of Pepsi so will just bring along a 12-pack of coke (at most I drink 2 per day). I will survive! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THAT is fake news. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dr_Pepper Hoping they offer Dr Pepper, Pepsi distributes Dr Pepper in Fl Dr Pepper/7 UP is it's own product It get distributed by both Coke, Pepsi & Themselves depending on region.

Joebucks Posted November 13, 2019 #93 Share Posted November 13, 2019 8 hours ago, jimbo5544 said: Amazing the hold that Soda has on some. I'd say with liquids in general. I can't even count how many people HAVE to have a specialty coffee, energy drink, soda, milkshake, etc every day or even multiple per day. To be completely honest, I think a cold can of Coca Cola is the tastiest drink there is. With that said, it doesn't mean I guzzle it by the gallons because I like it. Mostly because of health concerns. Partially also because I don't need to spend thousands per year on sugary liquids. Nothing about vacation makes me want to drink unlimited portions of it. I try to drink a lot of water while on vacation. All of the other stuff makes me feel like crap. I don't need to buy it in bottle form either. Apparently, this would ruin the vacation of many. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone who's sailed NCL know how they handle that? Can you ONLY get Pepsi products or do they have a supply of Coke for the bar? Pepsi is it on NCL and you are not allowed to bring any soda on board. Personally I smile at the kerfuffle over Coke vs Pepsi as I can and will drink both. Just thank your lucky starts that it isn't Royal Crown Cola they decided to replace Coke with. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare WhaleTailFlCruiser Posted November 14, 2019 #96 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Honestly not a fan of this mostly because I prefer Coke products and I Love me some sprite it is what I usually only drink on a cruise which is why I always get the BB package as I don't drink at all honestly. Anyone have any idea if on my December 29th Legend Sailing if it will be Coke or pepsi products? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This goes into effect in 2020.since you will be on ship as it changes into 2020, I can only guess that since the cruise began with Coke products, that’s what you will have.
