We don't drink, but If I did I would pack it into a roll in cooler (no ice) It would be soooo much cheaper if you brought your own and every night and day your room server will fill it with ice for you. Now I know that in all your paper work it says DO NOT BRING COOLERS. But when we sailed (9/2007) everyone in my party (18 of us in 6 rooms)all brought their coolers and checked it in. Ours where filled with water and gatorade in plastic bottles of course. Hope this helps you
