Walt Disney World released the list of limited-time menu items that will celebrate 30 years of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “The Lion King” at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. The park is celebrating the “Lion King” anniversary from June 10 through September 9, 2024.
“The Lion King” Food & Beverages
Eight Spoon Café on Discovery Island will have The Simba, a refreshing mango-flavored slushy combined with grenadine and topped with two gummy candies for some (sweet) grub. The culinary team at Isle of Java has put together a unique dessert paying homage to Timon’s iconic hula from the film. Timon’s Luau is a layered dessert with vanilla chiffon, passion fruit curd, guava jam, vanilla chantilly cream, an edible tropical flower for the lei, and mint for the hula skirt.
Tiffins Restaurant has Rafiki’s Squash Banana, a shake blended with squash bananas, baobab fruit, vanilla, cinnamon, and cardamom. Tiffins also serves “Remember Who You Are” The Lion King 30th Anniversary Dessert: Kenyan coffee mousse filled with caramelized bananas, chai chantilly, banana-caramel sauce, chocolate-coffee crumble, chocolate decoration, and sugar sun.
Tamu Tamu Refreshments in Africa will be home to the Zazu Ice Cream Sandwich. This refreshing bite sandwiches vanilla ice cream between two blue cake-coated sugar cookies with a chocolate medallion on top. Harambe Market will have the You Follow Old Rafiki Cheesecake, a passion fruit-mango cheesecake with a coconut-lime crust, vanilla bean chantilly, and a chocolate medallion.
Restaurantosaurus in DinoLand U.S.A. has two items. The Shenzi Strawberry Lemonade is a refreshing sip inspired by one of the iconic members of the hyena trio in the film. It combines Minute Maid Premium Lemonade, Minute Maid Strawberry Smoothie, and blue curaçao syrup served with a souvenir glow cube.
The Rightful Ruler Cupcake is available both at Restaurantosaurus and at Pizzafari. It draws inspiration from Scar himself. It’s a red velvet cake with cookies ‘n cream cheesecake filling and chocolate icing topped with a chocolate medallion on chocolate rocks.
Trilo-bites will be serving up a special item that also is available through September 9. The Zazu DOLE Whip Lime and Coconut Float swirls DOLE Whip Lime into Sprite with coconut and blue curaçao syrup. It’s then topped with a white chocolate medallion.
Last but certainly not least, at various outdoor food carts throughout the park, you’ll be able to get your paws on the sugar Simba Paw Cookie.
