Booked an int'l comfort+ seat this summer -- what alcoholic beverages are provided?

I'm flying international w/ Delta this summer in Comfort+ and they mentioned something about complimentary alcoholic beverages but were not specific.

Does anyone have a list or know of what is typically provided on flights? Are they all free or is there a quantity limit?

They are free. This is from Delta Sky Magazine:

Alcoholic beverages are free in ALL of coach (not just comfort +) on TPAC and TATL flights. DL wants you to think you are getting something for your $$ more than just 3 inches of legroom.

DL thinks you may not notice you have very little legroom if you have had several drinks.

FTFY

Why does the Delta Magazine linked list alcohol as $8?

On both flights to and from DUB in the past 2 weeks, in "regular coach" [1 row behind Comfort Plus ] I was told that Margaritas are only provisioned for North American flights.

So if you're looking for a Margarita on your flight, and you're flying TATL--- even in Comfort Plus, there's a very good chance you won't be able to get one.

I'm probably gonna stick with the spirits they provide and mix my own drink.

That row is the worst. Regular legroom but right behind the seat with extra recline
