A Sprite Flavor So Good, It's Worth a Cruise!

Key Takeaways

Coca - Cola Freestyle machines are like soda genies. They put Coke, Sprite, and other soft drinks from the empire into one cool dispenser. Sometimes, Coke releases special fountain drinks only available in these machines, like the new flavors seen at an Orlando attraction.

But for Sprite lovers, there's a special Freestyle machine that's worth traveling for. It has a super - rare version of the lemon - lime soda, like the Hope Diamond of Sprite flavors. And guess what? You'll find it on the high seas.

What Is Royal Berry Blast Sprite?

I'm a big fan of cruising. I've been on all the major cruise lines, some luxury ones, and even small boats. But the soft drink situation on a ship is usually terrible. (And don't even get me started on cruise coffee.) What makes Royal Caribbean different is the Freestyle machines. They're on 22 out of 29 Royal ships, which is 75% of the brand's current fleet.

When you're at sea, it's so much better with your favorite sparkling water mixes, all the best Diet Coke flavors, and a unique Sprite flavor just for Royal Caribbean: Royal Berry Blast.

This flavor came out in 2019 to celebrate Royal Caribbean's 50th anniversary. You can get it in regular and zero - sugar options. Among all the wild Sprite fruit flavors, this one has Sprite fans all mixed up, excited, and everything in between. No one can say exactly what the berry flavor is.

One Instagram user said it tastes like vanilla and Sprite, similar to the popular McDonald's Sprite hack. When comparing it to other Sprite Freestyle machine flavors, they said it has a general mixed - berry feel.

But another reviewer said it's like grape soda and Sprite combined. And as a big fan of grape soda, that sounds amazing.

Where To Find Royal Berry Blast Sprite

Right now, you can find Coke Freestyle machines and Sprite Royal Berry Blast on these ships:

I recently tried the exclusive Royal Berry Blast Sprite, and it's definitely worth the plane and cruise ticket to have it again.

My Honest Review of Sprite's Royal Berry Blast

I tried Coca - Cola's Royal Berry Blast Sprite on Royal Caribbean's new Star of the Seas. It plays tricks on your mind because it comes out purple, making you think it'll taste like grape, but it doesn't. Instead, it's a fruity, extra - sweet, hard - to - define berry flavor.

Just like the McDonaldland Shake or anything labeled 'blue raspberry,' it's impossible to say exactly what berry it tastes like. That's probably because it's a mix of flavors. It has some bright blueberry notes, sweet raspberry, and maybe a bit of vanilla. Overall, it's a crisp, refreshing, and slightly tropical taste, perfect for a hot day in the Atlantic Ocean.
