food IS a theme park
One of our favorite spots to grab a drink in EPCOT (and all of Walt Disney World really) is La Cava del Tequila in the Mexico pavilion.

We’ve had all kinds of unique creations here. But, today La Cava is doing something extra special since it is National Margarita Day. Today, this spot is offering a specialty drink in a SUPER limited edition souvenir cup and we got to check them out!
We’re back at Magic Kingdom today for an Annual Passholder preview before the park opens to the general public on Saturday.

And now it’s time to take a visit to our happy place INSIDE our happy place! That’s right — we’re headed to Main Street Bakery, a.k.a. Magic Kingdom’s Starbucks location to see what new treats we can find!
We thought finding these new neon yellow MagicBands at World of Disney this morning would be the highlight of our day!
Summer Specials
But that was before we realized the Marketplace Starbucks in Disney Springs had not one, but TWO new summer drink specials!
Yer a wizard, Harry! You’ll have to excuse us — we’ve been exploring Universal Studios’ Wizarding World of Harry Potter all morning now that the parks are open for a special Annual Passholder preview!
Disney Springs
And while we expected to see some magical happens over at Hogsmeade today, it’s what we saw at Dinsey Springs today that has us under its spell!
Today is Valentine’s Day — which can either be a good or bad thing depending on how lucky in love you are!
Dockside Margaritas at Disney Springs Marketplace
But no matter if you’re celebrating Valentine’s Day or Galentine’s Day, Dockside Margaritas in Disney Springs has some fun-themed drinks for the occasion! All month long they’re serving up two specialty drinks — one for those who’ve met their special prince or princess, and one for those who, well, let’s just say you haven’t found your happily ever after yet!
Jambo, DFB fam! We know you’re probably a little tired after watching the BIG GAME last night, so let’s take a moment to escape to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge together!
Animal Kingdom Lodge
And while Animal Kingdom Lodge has one of the coolest lobbies to sit and relax in, we’re heading around to the back to check out what’s new at Uzima Springs — Animal Kingdom Lodge’s infamous pool bar!
Grab your maschere (that’s “masks” in Italian!), it’s time for Carnevale in Disney Springs!
Carnevale!
A few days ago, we took a peek at the menu for the month of Carnevale at Maria & Enzo’s Ristorante in Disney Springs. This year, the celebrations of this iconic Venetian holiday are taking place in the evenings from now to February 29th. Of course, a huge aspect of Carnevale (besides the costumes and parties!) is the FOOD! So, you know we had to be there to check out what Maria & Enzo’s is serving up for the festival this year! Here’s our REVIEW of our evening at Maria & Enzo’s Carnevale Celebration!
The holidays might be over in Disney World, but the snow’s finally arrived!
Dawa Bar
We’re talking about the icy-cold new drink that the Dawa Bar in Animal Kingdom is now serving up — the SnowTini!
Disney has many tasty seasonal concoctions for the spooky season right now, but we may have just found our new favorite!
Pop’s Potion
And you’ll never guess where in Disney World this Halloween-themed cocktail just bubbled up!
On a recent stroll around Epcot’s World Showcase, I paid a visit to the Spice Road Table Juice Bar in the Morocco Pavilion. It was a hot afternoon (no surprise there!), so I was seeking out the Chef-created ice cream to cool down a bit.

However, I noticed a few new additions to the non-alcoholic Oasis Slushies on the menu: the Desert Rose and the Tangerine Delight have joined the Royal Blue Slushie.

Since I was after anything cold at that point, I thought I would try something new.
Guests could previously find the Desert Rose (made with Pink Lemonade) and Royal Blue Slush (made with Blue Raspberry) at the Morocco Oasis Kiosk which also offered the Sultan’s Colada and the Moroccorita cocktails.
Since the arrival of Spice Road Table, that kiosk has been removed, so it’s nice to know that some – in fact, most — of those offerings are available at the Juice Bar (by the way, it’s a little difficult to read in the photo, but the price for a non-alcoholic Slushie is $5.99).
Tangerine Delight was new to me, so I decided to give it a whirl!
Tangerine Delight
I am SO glad I did… this simple slush packs a TON of flavor. Everything you need to know about it is [Read more…]
