REVIEW: Wait a Sec…Did We Just Discover a SECRET Menu Item at EPCOT Festival of the Holidays?

We’re stopping by the Refreshment Outpost on our holiday trip around EPCOT at the 2024 EPCOT Festival of the Holidays!

Refreshment Outpost Booth

The 2024 EPCOT Festival of the Holidays has officially begun, and there is a lot to offer. There are plenty of food booths with tasty items, merchandise items to grab (of course), and even concerts to watch. But don’t let it overwhelm you. We’ve got you covered with everything you need to know. And now we’re heading to one spot in particular — the Refreshment Outpost — to give you the FULL scoop! Is it worth a try? Let’s find out!

Menu

The Refreshment Outpost is always serving up something special for the EPCOT festivals, and this year, you’ll find the returning Peanut Stew with sweet potatoes, mustard greens, and roasted peanuts; and a raspberry DOLE Whip.

2024 Menu

This year’s menu also features several returning ales, lagers, and ciders. And, back after a brief hiatus is the Boyd & Blair Chai Tea Mule. And if you’re looking at the menu photo above and scratching your head, we were, too. It’s not on the menu. But it IS available…and we’ll get to that in a bit.

Eats

We checked out the fan-favorite Peanut Stew for $5.25 again this year. This is always going to be a Best of the Fest item for us, and this year is no different.

The Raspberry DOLE Whip is also a great refreshing treat! You can grab it for $6.50.

DRINKS

The Boyd & Blair Chai Tea Mule is back at the Festival after a hiatus. So, as we previously mentioned, this isn’t even on the menu, so you’ll have to ask for it at the counter. And believe us — YOU NEED TO REQUEST IT. Our reporter isn’t a big chai fan, but they still loved this drink. The cinnamon sprig it’s served with adds a nice hint of cinnamon to the overall flavor.

The spices give it a little kick, and it’s the kind of drink you want to sip rather than guzzle. Maybe grab it and take in a few Storytellers and the Candlelight Processional. We also love that you get a cool souvenir cup with it (it’s plastic, though).

OVERALL

Refreshment Outpost doesn’t disappoint with its festival offerings, and this year is no different. The addition of the mule, though, just gives us ANOTHER good reason to visit this booth (although we’d revisit for both the peanut stew and Dole Whip). It’s strange that the mule isn’t on the menu, but we can just make it our little secret, right?
