Have It All- Does the “and more” in the drinks description mean water?

I read the boards often but typically wouldn’t click on any HIA threads although I did go back 10 pages to see if this had been addressed. We are thinking of adding this promo onto two upcoming cruises, is bottled/canned water currently part of the HIA package? 
 

Thanks In Advance

It also includes juices like the fresh squeezed juice at the juice  Bar? (can't remember what it is called)

It does not cover fresh orange juice served by breakfast room service.

Canned water is included. It is very flat in flavor and you might want to bring a refillable bottle and fill it in the Lido.

 

The "and more" actually refers to paying the difference (plus 18% service) when a drink is more than $11.

It is really funny about water .We take a sports mug & get the water that the ship distills   .This is the same as  the  bottled water

The canned water is "pop top" 1 time open. The screw top bottled water is additional cost. We bring an empty plastic bottle and fill it either at Lido or with canned water for fridge or excursions. Also, milk shakes usually come with HIA beverage package.

Thanks @REOVA for mentioning the cans are pop top lids, I never thought of that.  @mcrcruiserWe were thinking of bringing refillable bottles but miss the old days of the larger water bottles that we would  use to fill our smaller ones. Eventually, we started using the tap water (very good) but easier to fill with the larger bottled water.

Well, similar to the ship's water plant water but not the same source as the canned water.  The "Open Water" brand cans are canned in the US.  Their website states the company is based in Chicago but it doesn't state the water source.

If you like sparkling water, the bars have small Perrier glass bottles (330 ml) available that qualify within the drink package.

As mentionied in other threads, suppply chain issues have caused problems with getting the water to the ship.  On our recent Oosterdam cruise in South America, the water came in plastic bottles from a factory in Argentina.  The good news was it had screw off tops which were handy on excursions.  Perrier in screw top glass bottles was included in the HIA drink package.
