Updated: July 12, 2024

Let’s go drinking around the world — at EPCOT, that is.

Drinking around the world at EPCOT is one of the most popular adult activities at the park. There are 11 countries to explore, so why not try a drink from each one?

I drank around the world on March 30, 2024. Let’s talk about what I tried, the bars I visited, and which drinks I recommend. I’ve also noted all of the bar options and which drinks are most popular in each country.

Note: please drink responsibly and make sure you’re taking time for water and to eat, all while having fun, of course.

Drinking Around the World at EPCOT

Whether you start in Mexico or Canada or France or the United Kingdom, there really isn’t a correct order when drinking around the world at EPCOT.

Some might argue with me about that, but I say start where you want!

Here is the order of how I drank around the world with my sister and cousin. We chose to start in the U.K. because the pub is our favorite. Then, we made our way towards Canada and so on.

We shared a lot of drinks and purchased smaller beverages at the Flower & Garden booths, otherwise, there’s no way we would’ve finished drinking around the world at EPCOT in one day. This is also a great way to save money. Keep in mind that the drinks purchased at the festival booths are not available year-round.

United Kingdom

Our first stop was, of course, Rose & Crown. This is my favorite bar in all of EPCOT. We each got a Golden Imperial Pint for $11.25, which is Half Harp Lager and Half Bombardier Amber.

The Golden is my favorite drink at Walt Disney World. As a beer lover, this pub blend is unbeatable.

Tip: The Rose & Crown Dining Room next to the pub is open to guests during non-dinner hours. When dinner begins, only diners are welcome. This is a great place to enjoy your drink, cool off, and rest your feet.

Canada

  • Bar Options: Outdoor popcorn cart, Trading Post Refreshments store, festival booth
  • Most Popular Drink(s): Ottawa Apple at popcorn cart

At the Northern Bloom Flower & Garden booth in Canada, I got a 6 oz. of the Collective Arts Brewing Beyond Reason Micro Pale Ale from Hamilton, Ontario for $5.75.

This was so good that later in the evening after we finished drinking around the world, I grabbed a 12 oz. for $9.75 to watch Luminous, EPCOT’s current nighttime spectacular.

Mexico

I’m not a big margarita person, but a margarita is a must when drinking around the world — and you have to go to La Cava del Tequila to order one.

I got The Cucumber for $17.00 which consists of Tromba blanco tequila, fresh cucumber and lime juice, orange liqueur, Abasolo corn whiskey, agave, and a Tajín chile-lime powder rim.

I enjoy this margarita because it’s not super strong and has a lovely cucumber flavor. It’s light and refreshing, especially when it’s hot.

Norway

  • Bar Options: Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe, outdoor cart
  • Most Popular Drink(s): Einstök White Ale (when available) and Frozen Viking Coffee at both bar options

Sadly, during this trip drinking around the world, my favorite Einstök White Ale was not available at the outdoor cart or inside Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe.

So, I went with the 3 Daughters Farmhouse Ale for $12.00. This was on tap at Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe., and it was a lovely juicy, Hazy IPA.

The beers in Norway sometimes aren’t always the same. For example, in the past, there have been shipping issues with the White Ale. But, if the White Ale is available during your visit, get it!

China

  • Bar Options: Joy of Tea, Lotus Blossom Café, back of House of Good Fortune store, festival booth
  • Most Popular Drink(s): Kung Fu Punch and Tipsy Ducks in Love at Joy of Tea

I typically steer clear of the cocktails in China. More often than not, they are way too strong and overpriced.

So, that’s why I tried this 5 oz. Brew Hub Honey Jasmine Lager Draft Beer for $5.50 from the Lotus House Flower & Garden booth. It was very flavorful.

The beers in China normally aren’t too bad, so I recommend trying one.

Germany

  • Bar Options: Sommerfest, 2 outdoor carts, Weinkeller store, festival booth
  • Most Popular Drink(s): Schöfferhofer Pink Grapefruit Hefeweizen at Sommerfest and bar carts

Admittedly, I’m not a fan of the popular Schöfferhofer Pink Grapefruit Hefeweizen, except when it’s “loaded” with a shot of Deep Eddy Ruby Red Grapefruit Vodka at the Tune-In Lounge in Echo Lake at Hollywood Studios.

That’s why we shared the $9.75 12 oz. of the Weihenstephaner Hefe Weissbier from Freising, Germany at the BAUERNMARKT: Farmer’s Market Flower & Garden booth.

This was a solid wheat beer.

Italy

  • Bar Options: Tutto Gusto Wine Cellar, Gelateria Toscana, Pizza al Taglio (hours vary), outdoor carts, La Bottega Italiana, festival booth
  • Most Popular Drink(s): Espresso Martini at Tutto Gusto Wine Cellar

If you’re an espresso martini fan, you need to get the Espresso Martini at Tutto Gusto Wine Cellar in the Italy pavilion.

Yes, it’s on the more expensive side for $18.00, but it’s so good. The cocktail comes with vanilla vodka, coffee liqueur, and Italian espresso served over ice.

This is perfect during those hotter temperatures and if you need a caffeine boost.

America

It’s no secret I love Hazy IPAs. The Parish Brewing Co. Ghost in the Machine Double IPA from Broussard, Louisiana is a top-notch Hazy IPA.

I shared a 12 oz. of this for $9.75 with my sister. Unfortunately, this isn’t available year-round. We ordered it at the Magnolia Terrace Flower & Garden booth.

Japan

  • Bar Options: Garden House, Kabuki Cafe, Katsura Grill, festival booth
  • Most Popular Drink(s): Violet Sake from Garden House

No matter the festival, the Japan booth always surprises me (in a good way) when it comes to its beers.

Just like it did this year at the Hanami Flower & Garden booth with the Orange Blossom Brewing Co. Cherry Blossom Green Tea Pilsner.

I snagged a 6 oz. of this for only $5.00! What a steal. I don’t usually like green tea or orange flavoring, but this was delicious and full of flavor.

Morocco

  • Bar Options: Spice Road Table Bar, Oasis Sweets & Sips, outdoor snack and beer cart (within Brass Bazaar), Tangierine Café (festival booth)
  • Most Popular Drink(s): Iced Mint Tea at Spice Road Table Bar

You can never go wrong with the ciders on the menu at Tangierine Café, which is now a permanent festival booth.

This Flower & Garden hard cider flight cost $10.25 (you could also purchase these individually as a 6 oz. or a 12 oz.) and came with:

  • Keel Farms Pear Honeysuckle Hard Cider, Plant City, Florida
  • Woodchuck Imperial Sippin’ Citrus Hard Cider, Middlebury, Vermont 
  • 3 Daughters Brewing Pomegranate Hard Cider, St. Petersburg, Florida

The three of us shared the flight. Overall, the Pomegranate was my favorite.

France

Last, but not least, France!

It seemed appropriate that we completed our drinking around the world at EPCOT in France, since we got a 5 oz. glass of Veuve Cliquot Brut $15.00.

This was my first time trying Veuve and it did not disappoint. I will definitely get this again. You can order it inside the Les Vins de France store.

That’s right, many of the World Showcase shops have bars, where you can purchase alcohol.

Drinking Around the World Tattoos

Do you want to make drinking around the world at EPCOT even more fun? Then, you need these temporary tattoos!

I’m glad we bought these. They’re so cute and made our drinking around the world experience that much better.

You can find these on Etsy courtesy of TattedByIttyBits. Prices range depending on how many you purchase.

The tattoo is super easy to apply and lasts all day as you make your way around the world — even in the Disney World heat.

Better yet, you need this adorable Mickey freckle stamp to check off each country as you buy a drink.

The Creme Shop Disney Dual-Ended Eyeliner & Mickey Shaped Freckle Stamp Eye Liner can be purchased on Amazon (this is an affiliate link and I earn a small commission if you buy).

Here’s what the Mickey freckle stamp looks like…

How cute is that?!

Full disclosure: By the end of the day the Mickey did start to lose its shape a bit, but I think that’s because there were three of us using it continuously and in the heat.

The other end is a fine point tip for standard eyeliner, which can also be used to fill in or check off the boxes.
