The Best Drinks at Disney World (Both Alcoholic and Non-Alcoholic)

There are tons of drinks to choose from in Walt Disney World. Whether you’re looking for a snack and/or a thirst-quenching option, refreshments can be found in alcoholic or non-alcoholic concoctions. 

Beverages display

Let’s take a look at our recommendations and then you can choose what best suits your palate.

Magic Kingdom

Adventureland Colada

Served at to Jungle Navigation Co., Ltd. Skipper Canteen, this drink is made of a blend of Dole Whip Pineapple with Coconut Cream and Passion Fruit. The drink is also garnished with a slice of pineapple.

Adventureland Colada

Overall, the drink definitely delivers on that coconut flavor! If you like piña coladas and that mix of pineapple with coconut, we have a feeling you’ll LOVE this drink.

Dole Whip Float

You just can’t go wrong with a classic, and you’ll always find just that at Magic Kingdom. The Dole Whip Float, which you can snag at Aloha Isle, combines pineapple soft serve with pineapple juice.

Pineapple Dole Whip Float

It’s seriously the ultimate way to cool down on a hot day in Walt Disney World.

HOLD UP. Disney’s Iconic DOLE Whip Is Coming to… Grocery Stores?!

Frozen Mint Julep Lemonade

Are you a mint fan? We recommend the Frozen Mint Julep Lemonade from Casey’s Corner.

Frozen Mint Julep Lemonade

Yet another delicious, cold treat you can enjoy during a day at Magic Kingdom.

LeFou’s Brew

A featured menu item at Gaston’s Tavern, this is a sweet sip to cool off with in Fantasyland. LeFou’s Brew is a blend of no sugar added apple juice, a slight hint of marshmallow, topped with a passion fruit foam.

LeFou’s Brew

If Gaston had started his day with this instead of five dozen eggs, he might have been a little more pleasant. Just sayin’.

Sweet Tea Slushy

If you are a sweet or lemonade fan, try the Minute Maid® Premium Lemonade and Sweet Tea Slushy at Golden Oak Outpost!

Sweet Tea Slushy

This frozen version manages to keep the sweetness toned down without losing any flavor.

Raspberry Lemonade Slush

Sweet-tart and chilly, Frozen Lemonade calls to mind seaside treats from our favorite resort towns. And there’s nothing like it for reviving you on a super hot, sticky Florida day. One of our favorites is the Raspberry Lemonade Slush that you find at Magic Kingdom’s Cheshire Cafe or at Liberty Square Market.

Raspberry-Lemonade slush

The secret is in the balance. A too-sweet treat can leave you feeling not so great while you’re standing in the bright sun. That little kick of sour rounds out the flavors and makes the beverage a true refresher.

EPCOT

When you’re looking for a tasty beverage, look no further than EPCOT’s World Showcase, where you can drink around the world without ever leaving the park.

The American Dream

At Fife and Drum Tavern, the American Dream slushie is a mixture of Frozen Fanta Wild Cherry, Vanilla Ice Cream, and Frozen Fanta Blue Raspberry Slushy. The American Dream is very refreshing and cold, while not being overwhelmingly sweet

American Dream

If you’re looking for something strong with blue raspberry flavor though, you may be disappointed because the big flavor here comes from the cherry and the vanilla ice cream.

REVIEW: Disney Turned Our Childhood Memories Into a Treat

Frozen Viking Coffee

Over in the land of the Norse, there is one drink we feel is worthy of Mjolnir and that’s the Frozen Viking Coffee from Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe. It’s made with Baileys Irish Cream and Kamora Coffee Liqueur with Coffee-Chocolate Sauce and garnished with Coffee-Chocolate Crunch.

BOOZY frozen coffee!

Yes, we like our dessert in boozy coffee form sometimes. And trust us, you will, too!

Grand Marnier Orange Slush

Yes, we like slushies — they’re a tasty way to cool down at Disney World. And we REALLY like the Grand Marnier Orange Slush from Les Vins des Chefs de France. This one is c’est magnifique — a mixture of Grand Marnier, Rum, Grey Goose, and Orange Juice.

It’s SO orange

It’s basically a grown-up Creamsicle in beverage form.

Margaritas at La Cava del Tequila

At this hidden spot inside the Mexican pavilion, we recommend the El Diablo Margarita has a nice amount of heat to it that we can’t HELP but love! It’s made with Tromba Blanco Tequila, Fresh Lime Juice, Agave, and Cucumber-Jalapeño Juice with a Hibiscus Salt Rim. Can you say spicy? This drink is 🔥🔥🔥!

El Diablo

But, if you can’t take the heat, opt for the Avocado Margarita, aka the La Cava Avocado. It’s Tromba Blanco Tequila, Melon Liqueur, Fresh Avocado, Lime Juice served frozen with a Hibiscus Salt Rim. This drink is just so refreshing and creamy — trust us, it will surprise you in a good way!

We love a Disney margarita!

It’s no secret that we are HUGE fans of La Cava del Tequila!

Planetary Punch

You’ll need a reservation at Space 220 or Space 220 Lounge to taste test this beverage (or you can try this trick to get into the lounge without a reservation)! Once here, we suggest the Planetary Punch featuring Bacardi Silver, Malibu, Blue Curacao, Guava, and Coconut. If you’re looking for a kind-of a Piña Colada-type drink, then this is the one for you. It has a very tropical feel to it, plus it has a fun presentation with all kinds of bubbles coming out of it! This is due to the addition of a bit of dry ice.

Planetary Punch

While it was a sweeter rum drink, you can definitely taste the coconut, adding a nice layer of flavor. The double-walled glassware here was unique and fun too.

Disney World Bars You Have to Rope Drop To Get a Seat

Schöfferhofer Pink Grapefruit Hefeweizen

When it comes to beer, many might argue that no one does beer like in Germany. So it’s kinda’ hard to pick a favorite here, but even if you don’t like beer, you very well may love the Schöfferhofer Pink Grapefruit Hefeweizen from SommerfestIt’s also available at Biergarten!

Schöfferhofer Pink Grapefruit Hefeweizen

This beer is a light, crisp, and refreshing drink with a nice hint of grapefruit flavor. But you DO need to like grapefruit to appreciate it, so keep that in mind.

Read Our Review of the Schöfferhofer Pink Grapefruit Hefeweizen

Tipsy Ducks in Love

What’s not to love about a drink called Tipsy Ducks in Love? The name alone has us wanting to drink it. You can find this delicious beverage at the Joy of Tea. It’s a coffee drink made with Bourbon, Black Tea, Coffee, Cream, and Chocolate (although you can get it without the bourbon, too).

Tipsy Ducks in Love

Even with the bourbon, though, this is a nice, smooth, and refreshing drink. It’s also super creamy and delicious. We think you’ll love it!

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Baseline Select Margarita

Time to stop by BaseLine Tap House for the BaseLine Select Margarita features Patrón Añejo Tequila, Cointreau, sweet-and-sour, and lime juice. You can absolutely taste and appreciate the use of the better tequila.

BaseLine Select Margarita

Overall, the BaseLine Select Margarita is smooth, with a nice barrel flavor presenting a slight smokiness. It’s simply delicious.

Cold Brew Black Caf

Visit Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney World to try out the Cold Brew Black Caf. This is a Joffrey’s Cold Brew topped with Sweet Cream Cheese and Chocolate Puffs!

Cold Brew Black Caf

 If you mix it up, though, it’s perfectly balanced from the beginning of each sip to the last.  You’ll find this out-of-this-world creation at Kat Saka’s Kettle.

Fuzzy Tauntaun

Oga’s Cantina is an ultra-themed bar known for serving up unique cocktails like the Fuzzy Tauntaun. This drink is made with Cîroc Peach Vodka, Bols Peach Schnapps, Orange Juice with Tangerine, Pure Cane Sugar, and “Buzz Button Tingling” Foam.

Cheers!

That Buzz Button foam is the real kicker — it will make your mouth go numb when drinking it!

The Fuzzy Tauntaun Drink is BACK in Disney World With Some Changes

Grapefruit Cake Martini

If you want to drink your dessert, before or after your meal at the Hollywood Brown Derby Restaurant. The Grapefruit Cake Martini will do the trick — assuming you’re a grapefruit fan.

This drink is modeled on the restaurant’s signature dessert: Grapefruit Cake, of course!

Make Grapefruit Cake at home!

PB&J Milkshake

Sometimes it takes a blast from the past to get a blast of frosty refreshment, and you can do that at 50’s Prime Time Cafe at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Blended with vanilla ice cream are actual peanut butter and a hint of grape jelly, giving this creamy ice cream drink a taste of real nostalgia.

YUM

Try it! You’ll get mostly a taste of peanut butter in this with the ever so slight sweet taste from the jelly. It’s one of our all time favorite drinks in Disney World so just trust us on this one — it’s GOOD.

Seasonal “over the top” Shake

You’ll find Hollywood Scoops in the Sunset Ranch Market on Sunset Boulevard. The menu features sundaes, ice cream cups or cones, and some surprisingly over-the-top seasonal shakes.

Keep an eye on the menu for these amazing milkshakes!

Animal Kingdom

African Margarita

The African Margarita at Dawa Bar deviates from a traditional margarita thanks to the addition of Van der Hum —a tangerine liqueur from South Africa.

African Margarita

That hint of tangerine citrus brightens up an already lime-heavy drink.

Khumbu Icefall

The trek over to Asia, or the wobbly-legged walk back after seeing a Yeti, is the best time to try this next frozen favorite at the Thirsty River Bar and Trek Snacks. The Khumbu Icefall brings the fruity freshness of raspberry and coconut puree together with Cruzan Guava Rum.

Raspberries on the Khumbu Icefall

This is a seriously refreshing drink that has SO much fruity flavor. It will give you just the courage — and the cooldown — to continue on to your Everest ascent.

Night Blossom

Journey to Pandora – the World of AVATAR, and sidle over to an unassuming little stop for sips and snacks, Pongu PonguIt’s here you’ll find our next favorite frozen drink, the Night Blossom . Colorfully crafted with limeade, apple, and desert pear flavors, the drink is topped off with passion fruit boba balls.

Hello, Night Blossom!

And even though this is non-alcoholic, you can ask them to spike it to make it a Rum Blossom!

POG/Jungle Juice

POG (or passion fruit, orange, and guava) is a juice blend that originated in Hawaii and is served in various places around Disney World.  We usually find POG Juice (sometimes also referred to as Jungle Juice or potentially by other names) in places like Dawa Bar and Tusker House Restaurant in Animal Kingdom. We used to LOVE POG juice – straight up!

Jungle Juice!

Now that the supplier has changed, we think it’s way too sweet! But it still tastes delicious when combined with alcohol. So, there’s that!

POG Juice is BACK With a NEW Supplier in Disney World (And We Have Some THOUGHTS)

Yak Attack

We’ve always been fond of Yak and Yeti Restaurant and Anandapur Local Food Cafes at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Aside from having a cool name, Yak Attack is made with Mango Daiquiri, Don Q Cristal, and Rum and Wildberry Flavors. It sounds like a taste of summer, doesn’t it?

Yak Attack

We’re going to say it’s a very berry-forward flavored drink, although you can still taste the rum.

Frozcato with Dole Whip

Wine Bar George and The Basket one of our favorite places to great a drink or quick bite in Disney Springs. If you love Dole Whip, try the Frozcato.

Just like a Dole Whip!

This super fruity beverage is even more tart than a regular pineapple soft-serve Dole Whip, and it’s really good!

Milkshakes

You gotta respect the D-Luxe Burger menu where the choices of Artisanal Gelato Shakes outnumber the entrees and sides altogether!

It sinks down pretty quickly

This is a vacation splurge, but you really can taste the difference with the choice of gelato over ice cream. It is unbelievably thick and creamy.

Cranberry Chardonnay Wine Slush

While serious wine lovers may have a hard time really tasting the wine (they aren’t particularly winey at all, actually), the sweetness and flavor of the fruits really come through.

Lapu Lapu

What could be better than listening to Polynesian music while sipping a fruity tropical drink out of a pineapple? Doing it at the Tambu Lounge at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort.  The Lapu Lapu, served in a whole pineapple, is a treat right off the beach in Hawaii, with dark rum and tropical fruit. You can almost feel the beach breeze.

Even more tastes of the tropics can be found in the Hawaiian Mule or the Polynesian Mai Tai.
