food IS a theme park
It’s happened. We never thought it would actually happen, but we were wrong.
EPCOT
We ran into a terrifying problem in EPCOT today, and, not to be dramatic, but it might mean the end of the world. Seriously, we wouldn’t wish this catastrophe on our worst enemies. It’s that bad. Is it an early April Fool’s joke? Because it’s NOT funny, Disney.
If you needed ANOTHER reason to go to La Cava del Tequila in EPCOT, we’ve got one right here!

What’s not to love about World Showcase in EPCOT? Is there any other place on Earth where you can go to just ONE spot and visit 11 countries at once?

But you don’t just get to visit those countries, you can also shop for merchandise from those countries, see traditional entertainment from those parts of the world, and eat foods in restaurants inspired by those cultures. You can also drink beverages from or inspired by those worlds, so let’s talk about drinking our way AROUND the World.

You could stay at the Pixar Place Hotel (formerly known as the Paradise Pier Hotel) if you want a touch of Pixar in your hotel. The Grand Californian gives you direct access to Disney California Adventure if you want to be really close to the action. Then there’s the Disneyland Hotel which is one of the most iconic Disney hotels — and we’ve got some news about a new addition to this classic resort!
Did you know that Disney World is FULL of learning opportunities?
Frontera Cocina
Not only can you discover the myths behind the Norse gods in EPCOT or taste your way around the world by visiting the many restaurants around World Showcase, but you can also even learn more about food and wine. Now, one Disney World restaurant is offering a monthly club for guests to learn all about agave spirits!
If you’ve been to EPCOT and like margaritas, we bet you have a favorite.
The Lily Margarita
We also best that favorite comes from La Cava del Tequila at the Mexico Pavilion. Whether you’re a big fan of the Avocado Margarita or you like the heat of the El Diablo or you prefer sipping on The Lily, there’s one that stands above the rest for you. Well, if you play your cards right, you COULD soon get that margarita at a special price!
One of the best parts of visiting Epcot is drinking around the world.
EPCOT is more than just Drinking Around the World
Guests flock to EPCOT for a chance to try specialty cocktails from each of the countries in EPCOT’s World Showcase. Numerous options are available at each of the 11 countries, ranging from shots of tequila to sweet and refreshing cocktails. While there are tons of drinks to choose from, many of them don’t suit every palate. We’re constantly trying these drinks and letting you know what you should try and what you should skip — based on flavors you like or dislike.
Out of all the amazing drinks you can grab during your trip around the world, we have a few favorites. The drink we’ll be reviewing today is a fan-favorite and takes us into Germany.
February means LOTS of new food and drinks in Disney World.
La Cava del Tequila Entrance
Not only does the resort introduce new foods and treats for Black History Month, but we also see a LOT of snacks and drinks dedicated to Valentine’s Day! That means lots of pink food and heart-shaped sweets. Now, though, a popular Disney World cocktail is getting in on the romantic vibes.
Okay, so when we say “pool bar,” you’re probably not thinking about where to get the best drinks in Disney World, right?

But here’s the thing, many Disney World pool bars are way better than they deserve to be, and some have drinks that have us always coming back for more. One of those pool bars is the Uzima Springs Pool Bar at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, where we just sipped on three drinks — for science!
When the average person thinks of Disney World, chances are they don’t immediately think about booze.
Beer in Animal Kingdom
But in recent years, Disney World has become a hot spot for those looking to tie one on and have a drink or two, or just grab a beer while they’re waiting for their next Lightning Lane window to come around. Though alcohol isn’t necessarily new to the parks, we’re starting to see more offerings made available — especially in the once-dry Magic Kingdom. But with more cocktail and craft beer options on menus in Disney World, there’s a weird problem we’ve noticed — and it seems like Disney would want to do something about it!
