If you’re planning a trip to Disney World in the near future, be sure to include a coat on your packing list. The cooler temperatures have indeed arrived to Central Florida, and with some days topping out in the 60s (and even dipping into the 40s some nights), you may also be tempted to warm up here and there with a toasty beverage. And Disney Springs has some new ways you can do that!
For instance, you can now grab Mulled Wine at Wine Bar George.

Vivoli il Gelato is even warming up scoops of their cold treat with the new Hot Chocolate Affogato! [Read more…]
