Hello from Disney World!
We spend every day at Disney World, and that doesn’t just include running around all over the parks — we also visit the resorts to see what’s changed since the last time we were there. So now we’re back with more hotel updates!
All-Star Movies Food Updates
Silver Screen Spirits Pool Bar
We have four words for you: DOLE Whip Pineapple Smoothie. And yes, we found one at All-Star Movies! These aren’t new but we thought you might need a reminder! It’s made a little differently than a standard DOLE Whip — instead of being frozen in a soft-serve machine, there’s a different machine being used that gives it more of a smoothie texture. But as far as taste goes — it’s 100% a DOLE Whip, which means it’s 100% delicious.
And if you’d like to try it for yourself, we highly recommend it for $5.99.

Polynesian Food Updates
Barefoot Pool Bar
We made our own drink at the Barefoot Pool Bar because why not? We basically combined the Lime DOLE Whip Margarita with the Watermelon DOLE Whip Martini and made a Watermelon Margarita. And yes, it was wonderful — very refreshing with a little more sweetness than a regular margarita.
We paid $15 for this margarita, and yes, we’d do it again!
