I have the occasional soda but it's really the juices I'm wondering about.What exactly are the 10 ounce juices they are referring to that would be included in the package?

 

On the Splendor they have "Juice and Java" which sells 10 ounce fresh pressed juices and blends for $5 for 10 ounces. Is this the included juice?

 

I'm very confused since they already have terrible (no offence) from concentrate juices available for no additional charge for anyone in the buffet and I think in the MDR. 

 

If it's not from Juice and Java, what juices are a part of the package that would have had a surcharge if paid a la carte?

 

Initially I thought for sure Juice and Java juices would have been included given the 10 ounce thing (I shouldn't have assumed) but the package is roughly $9.50 a day so I doubt it would be from there given that you break even by just having 2 juices from there.

There are some juices on the Seaday Brunch menu that are not included; fancy juice blends that are about $5. I thought the free OJ in the MDR was good.

It’s not for the fresh blended juices unfortunately but does cover any of the juices at the bars like cranberry, orange an such. One time I had bubbles and really enjoyed cranberry and Sprite together.

I understand but there are no additional fees to anyone for the juice you already mentioned.

As stated above it is not the fresh pressed juices. The juices at the bars are not included for everyone. The main reason my sons get the bubbles package is for the fruit punch from the bar.

There's self serve fruit punch at the buffet though. I had it at least on the 3 day Mexican trip I took with CC. Is it really just a convenience thing than for guests so that they wouldn't need to go to the buffet?

No it is entirely different. They no longer have the fruit punch option in the buffet, just lemonade and tea after breakfast. The punch I’m referring to is made with juices from the bar that are not fresh squeezed but definitely better than the juice concentrate available in tge buffet at breakfast. It’s like the cartons of Minute Maid or whatever you can buy at the grocery store. You can also just get glasses of the juice not just the punch. That was just an example.

I am pretty sure they still offer fruit punch at least during breakfast. But yes you're right after breakfast your options are iced tea, lemonade, water, hot chocolate, hot tea, and coffee.

This is unrelated to what I asked but do kids typically (in real life...not on a cruise) drink punch with breakfast? I'd think it was more of a lunch/dinner thing but I could have been raised wrong lol.

I’ve been cruising with Carnival since 2009(with kids until the last 3 years) and do not remember ever seeing fruit punch in the machines but I may have forgotten very early cruises. The only thing in the machines at breakfast is orange, passion orange guava (my hubby’s favorite), and maybe cranberry(??).  Maybe some call the POG punch since it’s a mixture?
