What is included in refreshment package?

[Californian]

I'm trying to figure out if the refreshment package is something I want to purchase.  Does it includes canned sodas?  I especially like ginger beer.  Does anyone know if ginger beer, root beer, and other canned sodas are available in the refreshment package?   How about milk shakes and smoothies?  Is there a limit on how many drinks you can have each day?

I have never purchased the Refreshment Pkg but from what I recall:

1.  It only covers fountain sodas...but on occasion you can get a can if you have a cooperative server or your drink of choice only comes in a can.

2.  No idea about ginger beer or root beer.

3.  Milk shakes' availability is really ship-dependent.  I think it is fairly consistent now that the Johnny Rockets milkshakes ARE included with the RP but I recall having great difficulty, even with the full DBP, getting a JR milkshake on either Liberty or Freedom (can't remember which). I think it's much easier now.

4.  Smoothies are generally covered (I think) but not the ones with protein powder.

5.  No limit

It says you get the refillable soda cup with it, assuming these are still self serve when we resume. I seem to remember a 15 minute time out between refills, when I filled mine half way and then tried to fill it up after the fizz went down. 

 

I never asked for ginger beer sorry.

I’ve never seen root beer or ginger beer in a can on any ship.

Ginger beer is used to make Moscow Mules, so most ships should have it.  I have bought cans of ginger beer on Princess.

Thanks!  I did see that information on the website.  I was hoping that someone who has previously bought the Refreshment Package is able to answer my questions about the ginger beer, root beer, milk shakes, and smoothies.  If the ginger beer is not included, then I probably will not be interested in the refreshment package.
