There are a lot of great options if you’re looking to “drink around the world” in EPCOT, but there’s one that tops the list for many guests.
La Cava del Tequila is located in the Mexico pavilion of World Showcase, and it’s one of the most popular watering holes in all of Disney World — and for good reason. Today, we stopped by for the delicious Lily Margarita and some chips and guac, but while we were there, a different drink caught our eye! Is this one worth foregoing the classic margarita? Let’s find out!
Inside La Cava del Tequila, you’ll find plenty of options for various cocktails but their specialty is the margarita (in many forms). Today, however, we saw a placard for a different drink — the Oaxacan Mule.
This drink isn’t new (a Cast Member told us it’s been around for a couple of months), but we’ve been distracted by some other new drinks here and haven’t had the chance to try it out yet! Now, we’re happy to remedy that omission. The Oaxacan Mule is made with Ilegal reposado mezcal, Ancho Reyes chile liqueur, fresh lime juice, and Fever-Tree Ginger beer. It costs $20.
Our first impression — this is a very tasty mule! It tasted like a normal Moscow mule but with a little bit of a smoky flavor from that mezcal, which replaced the vodka.
We really enjoyed the mezcal in it because it had just the right amount of smokiness to offset the sweetness from the ginger beer and lime juice. Other options — like tequila or vodka — would probably have made the drink too sweet for our taste.
Although we have no complaints when it comes to this drink, we probably wouldn’t advise you to get it over one of the many margarita options here. Margs are what this spot is known for, so you don’t want to miss out on a classic! But if you’re a big fan of mules or if you come here often and want to try something new, we don’t think you’ll go wrong with the Oaxacan Mule.
