They do not. Juice, water, and coffee is provided in the sleeping cars. A choice of nonalcoholic beverage is included with meals in the dining car.
There is one exception to that rule, the Auto Train does provide free wine and beer to sleeping car pax in the dining car during dinner.
And a semi-exception would be the free wine and cheese tastings provided on the Empire Builder both ways and the Lake Shore Limited eastbound out of Chicago. But that's not done during meal times.
