Zero alcohol drinks

[Paulie wallnuts]

Hi, everyone,

My wife and I are about to go on our first cruise.we are on celebrity infinity. My question is this, are there zero alcohol beers/wine/prosecco/spirits available on board.as we would like to have the option not to have an alcoholic drink.

I found Heineken Zero in most bars and dining rooms.

Was this on Infinity?

Yes, in fact, there's at least 2 Drink Packages for non-alcoholic drinks: the Soda package and the Mocktails package.

I think you are confused. There is no soda package and there is no mocktails package on Celebrity.

[Paulie wallnuts]

Just  trying to find out if I can have a zero% beer or wine in the bar

[WestLakeGirl]

celebrity has Fre wine, but I don’t know if they have it by the glass, you might have to get the whole bottle and save it.

We had Fre wine by the glass on The Summit. We went to the Rendevous lounge and talked with the bar manager. She made sure that it was available there every night for us. NA beer was available in most bars and they would make mocktails at almost any bar. We liked the NA mojitos

[Nashna]

It wasn't available at every bar.  However, once we requested it, they ensured a bottle was handy.  They even had someone run the main bar to get a bottle.  We always had it by the glass.  Non-alcoholic wines are becoming very popular. Our Total Wine has over 12 red options alone.  They keep running out of our favorites.

Source please?

One reason to not think people posting "old questions" should just rely on searching old threads...things are changing.

[cruisestitch]

But I don’t think Celebrity ever had a Mocktails package……

I think everyone is confused with the verbiage I use: mocktails are another term for non-alcoholic drinks.

 

Yes, I may have been confused with having the soda package, that's available on Royal, so I apologize for the confusion on that part.

Which is ONE package. They do not have a Soda Package and a Cocktails Package as you posted above:

Which is why if you saw what I posted above, I corrected myself and I apologized for the confusion.

I added to my cruises the Zero Proof Package, it does not include Non-Alcoholic Beer and N.A. Wine.

That is true.  The N/A beer and wine are not included in the Zero Alcohol Package.  
 

I have been told various reasons why, one being that they are not actually zero alcohol, since there is some residual alcohol in them.

 

Another being that they are sold and distributed through the liquor providers, not the soft drink companies.

 

I don’t know which is true, I just know that you need to be of legal drinking age to be able to order them on the ship, and they are not included in the non-alcohol package.

Recently they have had Heineken Zero, O'dule's for beer and Fre (NA Wine by Sutter Home).   They have it in White, White Zinfandel, Red and Bubbly.    To me the White is too sweet and the Bubbly leaves a bad taste in my mouth.    The others are very drinkable and and I drink them daily since I don't drink Alcohol.

When in Retreat the bartender asked if I would like to try a non-Alcoholic Gin.     I agreed.     I took one taste and almost spewed it across the room.    The worst tasting stuff I've ever tried.    I wouldn't say it has any resemblance to Gin (very strong herbal taste that just stayed on you pallet).

Is Heineken Zero included in the CC Happy Hour from 5-7?
(I have seen Heineken on the menu when I searched, but wondered if that extended to the non alcoholic version).
