REVIEW: We Are Drooling Over This Boozy Beverage at Coca-Cola Beverage Bar in Disney Springs!

Post date June 16, 2020

You know what they say — when you open a Coke, you open happiness! That has never been more spot-on than when we tried the Coca-Cola Brownie Masher today at the Coca-Cola Beverage Bar in Disney Springs.

Coca-Cola Brownie Masher

Just look at that beauty! We are still salivating over how rich and sweet it was.

This drink, nay, dream of a beverage is made up of Fairlife Chocolate Milk, Stoli Vodka, Kahlúa Rum, Ice Cream, and is topped off with a Coca-Cola Brownie.

Look at all these goodies!

While we know you are supposed to “share a Coke”, our inner toddlers came out and we had trouble sharing something we wanted so badly for ourselves. Just look at that whipped cream! It doesn’t even look real, it’s so perfectly topped!

Just wanted to take another look at you…

As we reported yesterday, the Coca-Cola Store and Beverage Bar has officially reopened and is eagerly welcoming guests back so if you’re craving what we would describe as a boozy brown cow, this drink may just be for you.

Let the chocolate coma commence!

While it is on the higher end in terms of cost, coming in at $15.00, we think the Coca-Cola Brownie makes it worth the steeper price tag. By the way, it was our first time trying the brownie and it is soooo good!

Nom, nom, nom.

This drink is definitely on the creamier side and it will certainly cool you down in the steamy Orlando sun. We’ve been having a great time swinging by one of our old stomping grounds and testing out old faithfuls as well as their drink of the month, the Simply Refresher.

Now please excuse us while we daydream about our new chocolate-y friend…

Post date June 10, 2020

We can’t believe ALL the locations that opened in Disney Springs today. These locations include Pin Traders, Goofy’s Candy Company, The Art of Disney, Days of Christmas, Candy Cauldron, Ever After, Dockside Margaritas and DisneyStyle.

But before we press on, we must interrupt our regularly scheduled broadcast with a very important SNACK BREAK!

We were standing right by The Landing’s Joffrey’s Coffee and Tea Company when our appetites got the better of us today! And look at what we spotted in their bakery case — a new Pride Month DONUT!!!

Pride Month Donut

Donut King, a big-time coffee and donut chain, supplies all Joffrey’s locations with their donuts, so you know they’re the REAL DEAL! For $4.99 we scored this massive yeast donut today topped with a beautiful rainbow of frosting!

Pride Month Donut

The donut is plain while the frosting is vanilla so not a lot of complexity going on here. But the donut we got was nice and fresh! We thought it had a great texture and tasted like everything you could want out of a good donut DONE RIGHT!

Pride Month Donut

The barista we spoke with said they’ll be stocking the Pride Month Donut through June 28th, so hurry on down to snag yours before then! And don’t forget to swing by the Marketplace’s Starbucks to try their new Love is Love Drink which you can read our review of here!

Review! Is This Watermelon Margarita in Disney World As Refreshing As It Sounds?!

Post author By disneyfoodblog.com
Post date June 10, 2020

It’s been a busy day so far at Disney Springs! Not only have a few of our favorite Disney stores reopened today, but also one of our most-beloved bars!

Dockside’s Menu

Just moments ago we told you guys Dockside Margaritas had reopened and since we’ve had a hankering for one of their signature drinks ever since they closed back in March, we promptly put in our order!

Today, we’ll be trying their Watermelon Margarita for $16! This isn’t a seasonal special, but rather a summer-themed drink that lives on the permanent menu right now. We have seen it come and go quite a few times, so we thought we’d give it a try! This boozy mixture consists of Patrón Silver Tequila, Gran Marnier, watermelon and lime juices, and sweet-and-sour mix!

Watermelon Margarita

You can also get either a salt or sugar rim. The Cast Member who mixed ours up recommended the salt since this marg tends to run a little sweet, so we went with her pick!

Watermelon Margarita

The drink is super refreshing and a little dangerous since we couldn’t really taste much of the tequila! It’s a hot day so a lot of our ice had melted before we got to take our first sip! We were happy we went with the Cast Members suggestion to get the salt rim since it added a nice level of contrast to the fruity drink.

Watermelon Margarita

The lime’s citrusy and sour flavors came through strong — although not strong enough to make our lips pucker! The hint of watermelon was much more subtle, adding just a little sweetness to each sip! Overall, we enjoyed this drink and we’d definitely pick up this one again on a hot day at Disney Springs since it’s basically summer in a glass!

Will you be trying the Watermelon Margarita on your next visit to Disney Springs? Let us know in the comments below!

Review! This NEW Shake in Disney World Has An Entire Cupcake on Top!

Post date June 9, 2020

Just moments ago, we told you Vivoli il Gelato had finally reopened in Disney Springs!

Birthday Cake Shake

And now we’re back to share all the delicious deets regarding a certain special menu item — the Birthday Cake Shake!

While originally Vivoli il Gelato had hoped to open its doors on May 22nd, we stopped by that day to see the shop was still closed. An employee told us they were aiming to reopen by June 1oth which is Vivoli il Gelato’s 5-year anniversary! We were SUPER excited to see them up and running today — and to celebrate, we’re diving into their Birthday Cake Shake!

Birthday Cake Shake

Oh hello, gorgeous! Where have you been hiding all of our lives?! This “birthday present in a cup” features cake batter gelato blended with milk and it’s topped with a cupcake, whipped cream, and rainbow confetti sprinkles!

Birthday Cake Shake

Words don’t do the insanity of the Birthday Cake Shake justice, but we’ll try our best to explain what’s going on with this thing! First of all, the gelato tastes just like how you would expect it to taste! Hey, we’re just as guilty of licking the bowl while baking a cake as you guys are! The gelato tastes just like yummy cake batter!

Birthday Cake Shake

But that’s just one layer of the madness that is happening here! Don’t forget this puppy comes with its own cupcake topper which is super moist and delicious too!

Birthday Cake Shake Topper

For $14, the Birthday Cake Shake is more of a meal than a snack, but cake lovers won’t want to miss out on this amazing treat. We’ll be stopping by Vivoli il Gelato to see if they have any special items for their 5-year anniversary at Disney Springs since we were told there might be a new shake, bombolato, and peanut butter cannoli in the works, so stay tuned!

Have you ever tried one of Vivoli il Gelato’s shakes? Let us know which one is your favorite in the comments below!

Review! We’re Sippin’ on TWO New Summer-Themed Drinks at Starbucks in Disney World!

Post author By disneyfoodblog.com
Post date June 9, 2020

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!

Don’t worry if you haven’t gotten the chance to partake in Starbucks’ other new drinks including the Welcome Back and Love is Love! They’re still available!

Starbucks Menu

But today we’re setting out to explore the new Campfire Cold Brew and Picnic Punch that have just appeared! We gotta say — both of these drinks look and SMELL absolutely amazing! We can’t wait to see how they taste!

Campfire Cold Brew and Picnic Punch

First up, the new Campfire Cold Brew featuring Starbucks’ signature nitro cold brew blended with milk chocolate topped with a marshmallow cold foam and graham cracker crumbs! Before tax, this one set us back $7.35.

Campfire Cold Brew

We didn’t pick up much of the marshmallow or milk chocolate because the richness of the cold brew was so powerful! If you like a strong cold coffee drink with just a hint of sweetness, we think you should definitely give the Campfire Cold Brew a try! If you want it a little sweeter, ask for more foam on top or an extra pump of chocolate syrup to help those flavors stand out a little more!

Campfire Cold Brew

Next, we sampled the new Picnic Punch! This one’s a pineapple matcha drink that comes topped with a strawberry sweet cream cold foam and costs $7.40 before tax!

Picnic Punch

We seemed to think the flavors of this drink were a little more to our liking! The creamy strawberry foam was super yummy and it’s the exact same foam they’re using for the Love is Love drink which to us kinda taste like delicious melty strawberry ice cream!

Picnic Punch

Although we don’t normally reach for iced green tea drinks, the strawberry cream seemed to mask some of the matcha’s bitterness.

That means there are a total of FOUR new drinks to try at Starbucks in Disney Springs now, so ya best get movin’!

Have you tried one of Starbucks’ new specialty drinks this summer? Let us know which ones you’ve had in the comments below!
