Reviewing These New Magic Kingdom Confectionery Treats Was Truly a Roller Coaster Ride

We do love some Disney World snacks, and that includes Disney World drinks.

Glacier Kitchen at Main Street Confectionery

Some drinks, though, are 100% designed with kids in mind, and that usually includes all the frozen drinks and slushies you can get in the parks. Now, don’t get us wrong, some of those frozen non-boozy drinks are our favorites (the Frozen Mint Tea in EPCOT’s Morocco Pavilion comes to mind), but a lot of the drinks are going to appeal to kids. Well, let’s just say we tried one slushy that your kid will probably beg you for — and we have thoughts.

This little adventure is going to take us to Magic Kingdom where we’ll visit Main Street Confectionery. Your kid will probably point out IMMEDIATELY that you can get slushies from Glacier Kitchen inside there. That includes the Rainbow Slushy, which YOU KNOW your kid will beg for. Well, we decided to try it for ourselves.

Rainbow Slushy

At first, the flavors are really good in this slushy as you move the straw up and down to experience all of them separately. It’s a rainbow of flavors. But this is Florida, and well, things melt fast and once it’s all melted, it’s kind of foul. The acidity of the lemon, the brightness of the cherry, the blue raspberry, and the Coca-Cola do NOT blend well. EW. A lot of the syrup also ends up at the bottom and you end up with the ghost of all those flavors in melting ice. Is it pretty? Sure. But the flavors here just don’t work…at all…when they’re combined.

Taste the rainbow?

We also got the chance to try Coca-Cola with Cherry Fanta Slushy, which is basically a Cherry Coke Slushy. Now, THIS frozen drink was a win for us. Previously, they had the Orange Fanta you could get mixed, but now it’s the Cherry, and this is by FAR the superior flavor.

So while you’re kid is drinking the Rainbow (and probably making faces as it melts), treat yourself to the Coca-Cola with Cherry Fanta Slushy. And stay tuned to DFB for more reviews.
