Happy EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays, everyone!
We’re live at the festival today and are bringing you reviews of every single food booth! Come with us over to the Chestnuts and Good Cheer booth to try their seasonal offering — hot chocolate with a twist.
Menu
This year, you can grab plenty of offerings from this booth including Cinnamon-glazed Almonds, Cinnamon-glazed Pecans, Cinnamon-glazed Cashews, and Fire-roasted Chestnuts. There are also holiday drinks like hot cocoa and eggnog!
We can’t wait any longer — let’s dig in!
Eats
As we mentioned above, there are 4 types of nuts you can grab here and all of them are gluten/wheat friendly. That includes the Cinnamon-glazed Almonds…
…the Cinnamon-glazed Cashews…
…and the Cinnamon-glazed Pecans! All of these taste like standard glazed nuts, just slightly different crunches and flavors on each one.
Each of these are $5.50.
For a more unique option, check out the Fire-Roasted Chestnuts! Something cool about these is that you can see the chefs roasting them. These were pretty sweet and had a sprinkle of cinnamon, but unfortunately these were our least favorite. They’re soft and very dry, and the best part was the seasoning on the outside.
A serving of these is $6.
Drinks
This year, the Chestnuts and Good Cheer booth is serving up Hot Cocoa with Screwball Peanut Butter Whiskey, whipped cream, and candied nuts.
We saw this offering last year, but we had to try it again! If you love creamy hot chocolate, this is the drink for you. It was super creamy and we definitely tasted that peanut butter whiskey — it was the star of the show! The whipped cream on top makes the drink even creamier and this drink got us in the holiday spirit.

The Cast Member asked which nuts we wanted to top our hot cocoa with so you have a choice (we chose pecans) but beware! These will sink to the bottom and get a little soggy — we recommend eating them off the top right when you get the drink!
You can grab this drink for $11.50. This hot cocoa is also available non-alcoholic for $3.75.
The T.G. Lee Eggnog with Skrewball Peanut Butter Whiskey is also available again this year for $11.50. Last year, we loved the whiskey flavor with the eggnog and although you can definitely taste the alcohol, it didn’t overpower the drink.
There is also a non-alcoholic version of the eggnog for $4. You can also get a Firenog which is the same eggnog with Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey for $11.50.
Overall
Overall this is a great place to grab a boozy holiday drink or a sweet snack! If it’s something you enjoy, the nuts are a great snack that you can bring along with you throughout the day since they are easy to throw in a park bag. Although nothing stood out at the best of the fest level, we did enjoy the offerings here.
