Royal Caribbean Vitality Café Menu: Fresh Juices, Smoothies & Prices
Royal Caribbean’s Vitality Café offers a different kind of drink stop from the cruise line’s traditional bars and cafés. Located in connection with the spa and fitness experience on ships that feature the venue, Vitality Café specializes in fresh juices, smoothies, protein-focused drinks, and other lighter options.
Royal Caribbean officially describes Vitality Café as a place for fresh juices and smoothies, particularly before or after a workout or spa treatment. The menu photographed for this guide shows 12-ounce fresh juices and smoothies priced at $8.25, along with build-your-own options, protein shakes, and supplements such as BCAA and creatine.

Royal Caribbean Vitality Café
Vitality Café is Royal Caribbean’s health-focused café concept. Rather than cocktails and typical cruise bar drinks, the venue focuses on fresh juices, smoothies, protein shakes, and other options suited to passengers visiting the spa or fitness center.
Royal Caribbean currently identifies Vitality Café as a breakfast and lunch venue and notes that fees apply for juices and smoothies. The venue is not found on every Royal Caribbean ship, so passengers should check the restaurants and dining options for their specific vessel before sailing.
Menus can also change between ships and over time. The selections and prices below are taken directly from the photographed Vitality menu.
Royal Caribbean Vitality Café Fresh Juice Menu
The photographed menu lists four prepared fresh juices. Each is priced at $8.25 for a 12-ounce serving.
• Apple Mint – Apple, ginger, lemon, and mint
• Fruit Oasis – Apple, grape, and lemon
• Caliente Carrot – Carrot, tomato, and jalapeño
• Carrot Lemonade – Carrot, apple, lemon, and ginger
These choices range from fruit-forward combinations such as Fruit Oasis to the more savory Caliente Carrot, which combines carrot and tomato with jalapeño.
Build-Your-Own Juice
Passengers who would rather create their own combination can use the Build-Your-Own Juice option.
The menu allows you to select any four ingredients from the following choices:
• Apple
• Beet
• Carrot
• Celery
• Cucumber
• Ginger
• Grapefruit
• Grape
• Jalapeño
• Lemon
• Mint
• Orange
• Pineapple
• Spinach
• Tomato
The menu describes the ingredients as freshly frozen.
Passengers can also add a supplement for an additional $0.75:
• BCAA
• Creatine
This makes the build-your-own option useful for passengers who want to customize the flavor and ingredients rather than ordering one of the preset juice combinations.
Royal Caribbean Vitality Café Smoothie Menu
Smoothies on the photographed menu are also priced at $8.25 for a 12-ounce serving.
Two prepared options are featured: Power Shake and Muscle Building.
Power Shake
The Power Shake is described as “The Ultimate Meal Replacement!” and a low-calorie, high-nutrient blend.
It contains:
• Milk
• Whey protein
• Banana
• Mixed berries
Muscle Building
The Muscle Building smoothie is described as a high-calorie, high-nutrient shake with carbohydrates and protein.
It contains:
• Milk
• Whey protein
• Creatine powder
• BCAA powder
• Banana
• Mixed berries
The Muscle Building option therefore already includes both creatine and BCAA powder as part of its listed recipe.
Build-Your-Own Fruit Smoothie
Vitality Café also offers a Build-Your-Own Fruit Smoothie, giving passengers considerably more flexibility.
The menu instructs passengers to select any four of the following:
• Apple
• Banana
• Beet
• Blackberries
• Carrot
• Celery
• Cucumber
• Grapefruit
• Strawberries
• Lemon
• Orange
• Pineapple
• Spinach
The fruit is described on the menu as freshly frozen and blended to order.
Smoothie Add-Ins and Supplements
After selecting the base ingredients, passengers can further customize their smoothie with several add-ins.
The photographed menu lists:
• Caramel
• Chocolate syrup
• Milk – whole, skim, almond, or soy
• Peanut butter
• Yogurt
• Whey protein – vanilla or chocolate
BCAA and creatine are also available as supplements for an additional $0.75.
Between the different fruits, vegetables, milk choices, protein, and supplements, the build-your-own smoothie provides considerably more customization than one of the standard recipes.

• Fresh juices – $8.25 for 12 oz.
• Smoothies – $8.25 for 12 oz.
• BCAA supplement – $0.75

These are the prices displayed on the photographed menu and should not be treated as guaranteed fleetwide pricing for future cruises. Royal Caribbean can change menus and prices, and selections may vary by ship and sailing.
Are Vitality Café Juices and Smoothies Included in Royal Caribbean Drink Packages?
Royal Caribbean currently states that its signature juices, smoothies, and protein shakes at Vitality Café are included in both the Refreshment Package and Deluxe Beverage Package.
That can make Vitality Café particularly useful for passengers who already have one of those packages and want something other than soda, specialty coffee, cocktails, or bottled drinks.
Beverage package terms can change, however, so it is always worth checking the current terms for your specific sailing.
25% Off IV Therapy at the Spa
There is also an interesting spa promotion displayed prominently on the photographed menu.
The sign advertises:
25% off IV Therapy at the Spa with the purchase of a smoothie or juice.
Passengers are instructed to request their receipt as proof of purchase.
Because this is a promotional offer, there is no guarantee that the same discount will be offered on every Royal Caribbean ship or sailing. If you are interested in the promotion, confirm its availability and terms onboard.
Which Royal Caribbean Ships Have Vitality Café?
Vitality Café is not a fleetwide venue, so passengers should not expect to find it on every Royal Caribbean ship.
Royal Caribbean’s current ship and itinerary information confirms the venue on ships including Oasis of the Seas and Symphony of the Seas. The concept is particularly associated with Royal Caribbean ships featuring extensive Vitality at Sea spa and fitness facilities.
Because venues can differ significantly even between ships in the Royal Caribbean fleet, check the dining section for your particular ship before planning around a visit to Vitality Café.
Vitality Café vs. Other Royal Caribbean Drink Options
Vitality Café fills a fairly specific niche within Royal Caribbean’s extensive onboard dining and beverage lineup.
Instead of ordering a cocktail at a pool bar or grabbing a specialty coffee, passengers can stop here for fruit and vegetable juices, smoothies, and protein-focused drinks.
The build-your-own options are especially useful because passengers aren’t limited to the preset recipes. Someone wanting a simple fruit smoothie can choose accordingly, while another passenger can incorporate vegetables, whey protein, peanut butter, BCAA, or creatine.
For passengers who use the onboard fitness center, Vitality Café can also be a convenient stop before or after a workout.
Tips for Visiting Vitality Café
If your Royal Caribbean ship has Vitality Café, a few things are worth keeping in mind:
• Check the Royal Caribbean app or daily schedule for current opening hours.
• Confirm current prices onboard, since menu pricing can change.
• If you have a Refreshment or Deluxe Beverage Package, check the current package terms for Vitality Café drinks.
• Build-your-own juices and smoothies allow considerably more customization than the preset recipes.
• Ask about ingredient substitutions if you have specific dietary preferences.
• Notify the crew about food allergies rather than assuming a drink is allergen-free.
• If you want to use the advertised spa promotion, keep your receipt as instructed on the menu.
