There are A LOT of drinks offered at Walt Disney World. From beer, to cocktails, to mocktails, to specialty coffees, to exclusive beverages, the options are endless.
I love sipping on a delicious beverage as I walk around the parks or lounge at the hotel. If you like to do the same, go no further!
Now, I may be biased on what I consider the best drinks, especially since these are my favorites and my go-tos, but I truly find all of these to be fabulous. Here are 22 best drinks at Walt Disney World!
In this article
Best Drinks at Walt Disney World
Cancun Colada
This is like a Piña Colada, but a million times better. The Cancun Colada comes with Don Q Coconut Rum, Almond Liquor, fresh lime, and piña colada and passion fruit purée.
I think the passion fruit puree really transforms this into the most amazing frozen cocktail. Keep in mind that this isn’t listed on Laguna Bar’s menu, but they can make it for you.
Night Blossom (non-alcoholic)
This is one of the best (and prettiest) non-alcoholic drinks at Disney World! The Night Blossom comes with layers of apple and desert pear limeade topped with boba balls.
The apple and pear work so well together. This tastes even better on a hot day.
Hawkes’ Grog Ale
Say hello to my absolutely favorite beer at Disney World. The Hawkes’ Grog Ale is an American Pale Wheat beer that has a fruity hop and notes of apricot and peach.
It’s light and not too hoppy, so don’t be scared by the “fruity hop” description. The hop, apricot, and peach all balance out each other perfectly.
This is an exclusive beer brewed by Terrapin Beer Co., meaning you can only find this in Animal Kingdom.
Shakin’ Jamaican Cold Brew (non-alcoholic)
The Shakin’ Jamaican Cold Brew is an island-inspired caffeinated beverage that tastes exactly like it’s described, all while maintaining a delicious coffee flavor. There are also hints of caramel and vanilla.
You can add a shot of hazelnut, vanilla, caramel, or Irish cream for an extra charge, but I prefer mine as is.
Tip: Annual Passholders receive a 20% discount at all Disney World Joffrey’s locations, minus alcoholic beverages.
Sierra Nevada Hazy Little Thing IPA
Sierra Nevada’s Hazy Little Thing is one of my favorite Hazy IPAs. So, if you too like a Hazy IPA, you need to order this!
This isn’t exclusive to BaseLine and you can find it at other locations across Disney World. It just tastes better here, probably because this is one of my favorite bars.
Tampa Bay Reef Donkey APA
You can sometimes find this at other locations at Disney World, but the Tampa Bay Reef Donkey APA tastes even better when walking around Africa at Animal Kingdom.
You need to be an IPA fan to enjoy this. It’s described as a “lemon-lime aroma with a citrus and slight tropical fruit flavor.” It has the right amount of hops that are balanced perfectly by the citrus and tropical flavors.
Dark Espresso Martini
I prefer a dark espresso martini, because I want my cocktail to taste more like coffee. While it might look like pretty standard, it’s full of flavor and has become my favorite espresso martini at Disney World.
FYI: If Sam the bartender is working, just know you are in good hands, because his espresso martinis are off the charts.
Gold Squadron Lager
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge has a range of themed and exclusive beverages, but my favorite is the Gold Squadron Lager brewed by Blue Point Brewing Co.
This is a golden lager with lavender and plum flavors, but don’t let those strong flavors scare you. While you can taste each, they complement each other wonderfully.
“Loaded” Schöfferhofer Grapefruit Hefeweizen
Admittedly, I am not a fan of the Schöfferhofer Grapefruit Hefeweizen, but when it comes “loaded” with a shot of Deep Eddy’s Ruby Red Grapefruit Vodka, it becomes a whole new drink with an even better grapefruit flavor.
There are many who love this beer. If you’re one of them, you need to order this, stat. You can find the Tune-In Lounge next to 50’s Prime Time Café in Echo Lake.
Frozen Mint Julep Lemonade (non-alcoholic)
A classically blended Mint Julep featuring Minute Maid Premium Lemonade and topped with fresh mint leaves, a cherry, and a lemon? Yes, please! Not all frozen non-alcoholic drinks are created equal, but this one is a winner.
This is truly the perfect combo of lemonade and mint, without being too minty. It’s super refreshing on a hot day, as well.
Terrapin Luau Krunkles Passion Fruit-Orange-Guava IPA
If you’re looking for a citrusy IPA, you need to try the Terrapin Luau Krunkles Passion Fruit-Orange-Guava IPA.
This is my number one drink anytime I’m at the Polynesian. This beer is such a lovely citrus IPA that is hoppy in all the right ways.
Kungaloosh Spiced Excursion Ale
I love a beer that tastes like Christmas, especially the Kungaloosh Spiced Excursion Ale. This is an exclusive beer brewed for Disney World by Concrete Beach Brewery.
The Kungaloosh is an African-inspired deep amber ale brewed with Sorghum and a special blend of spices including cinnamon and cardamom.
The beer is on the heavier side, so you may want to avoid on a hot park day. Or, make sure to sit inside at Nomad Lounge so you can enjoy it with some air conditioning.
Watermelon Margarita
Pre-made cocktails aren’t my favorite, but there is something very good about this Watermelon Margarita. It’s a mix of Patrón Silver Tequila, watermelon, sweet-and-sour, and lime juice.
Yes, it’s definitely on the pricier side for pre-mixed, but it’s so delicious! There is the perfect amount of watermelon and tequila. You can taste both equally without either flavor overpowering one another
Espresso Martini
The Italy pavilion serves one of the best espresso martinis.
This comes with vanilla vodka, coffee liqueur, and Italian espresso — all served over ice. It’s expensive, but worth every single penny.
Joffrey’s Hawaiian Kona Press Pot (non-alcoholic)
Nothing goes with breakfast quite like pot of pressed coffee. The freshly brewed Joffrey’s Coffee 100% Hawaiian Kona Press Pot is always must when at Kona Cafe.
It’s strong, smooth, and serves two. This is exactly what you need in the morning.
POG Juice (non-alcoholic)
There’s no beating POG (passion fruit, orange, and guava) juice at Disney World. Sometimes you’ll find POG juice under a different name, including “Jungle Juice” or “Liliko’i Juice” at Kona Cafe.
You’ll even find it in select cocktails or different versions, including the POG Frozen slush at The Mara that can be served with or without alcohol.
Margarita Flight
The flight comes with three margaritas:
- Classic: Jose Cuervo Tradicional Reposado Tequila, Cointreau Liqueur, Lime Juice, and Sweet-and-Sour with a Grand Marnier Liqueur Float
- Blood Orange: Jose Cuervo Tradicional, Reposado Tequila, Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur, X-Fusion Liqueur, and Sweet-and-Sour
- Pomegranate: Jose Cuervo Tradicional, Reposado Tequila, Stirrings Pomegranate Liqueur, and Sweet-and-Sour
These are all really good, but I’m partial to the Pomegranate. For the price, you get decent pours and this is also perfect for sharing. You can also order each one individually for $16.00.
Tri Wishes
Tri Wishes (pronounced “tree)” is a grand Irish red ale from Crooked Can Brewing Co.
If you love a red ale, like I do, then you can’t pass this up next time you’re at Raglan Road. It’s top notch!
Espumoso (Sparkling) Sangria
I’m not a big wine or sangria person, but this Sparkling Sangria is beyond delicious! It’s a mix of Freixenet Blanc de Blancs Brut Cava, peach liqueur, and lemon.
It’s house-made and basically tastes like lemonade, but better. I could easily drink an entire pitcher.
Espresso Martini
This is a top-notch espresso martini at Disney World. This particular one is made with Stoli Vanilla Vodka, espresso, and Bols Crème de Cacao Liqueur.
It’s extremely smooth. I love that you can also taste the coffee. I don’t like Baileys or Kahlúa in my espresso martinis, so this is absolute perfection.
Berried Treasure Session Sour
It’s no secret I’m not a fan of sours, but the Berried Treasure Session Sour from Wicked Weed Brewing at The Beak and Barrel is excellent! It’s one of the best sours I’ve ever had.
Actually, this tastes more like a berry-flavored dry hard cider. I wish I could get this outside of the tavern.
Golden
Don’t confuse this Golden with the “Golden Fox Imperial Pint” on Rose & Crown’s menu. They are not the same.
The former has changed frequently over the years, thanks to the discontinuation of Bass Ale in the United States and the rotation of select taps.
Currently. the closest you can get to the Golden I once knew and loved is by asking the bartenders for half Harp and half Sullivan’s Maltings Irish Ale. It really does taste like the original Golden that consisted of half Harp and half Bass Ale.
