It seems like more and more people are opting to eliminate alcohol these days. Whether it’s for general health, pregnancy, or any other reason, it can be a difficult change if you’re used to sampling the delicious cocktails from ‘Around the World.’
The good news is you don’t have to stick with water or boring soft drinks to stay sober on your Disney World vacation. There are so many fun and unique options you can try that won’t make you feel like you’re missing out.
From the Disney Parks to the Disney Resort, and even Disney Springs, this post will help you find the best mocktails Walt Disney World has to offer.
Best Mocktails in the Disney Parks
Strawberry Oolong Tea Slush- The Joy of Tea Kiosk, China Pavilion, Epcot
This is a refreshing choice for a hot day in Epcot. It may look like a typical strawberry slushie, but the sweetness of the strawberry is balanced out by the tea flavor.
Zingiber Fizzie – Nomad Lounge, Animal Kingdom
Nomad lounge is one of my favorite spots to grab a drink and something to eat in Animal Kingdom. This drink combines passion fruit purée, mint, simple syrup, lime juice, and ginger beer. It’s a sweet drink with a bit of spice from the ginger.
Hyperdrive (Punch It!) – Oga’s Cantina, Hollywood Studios
If you’re lucky enough to snag a reservation at Oga’s while you’re touring Galaxy’s Edge, you’re in for a super adventurous menu of food and drinks. This mocktail combines POWERADE Mountain Berry Blast, white cranberry juice, black cherry purée, and Sprite. It looks just as impressive as the alcoholic options on the menu.
Moon Rocks – Space 220 Restaurant, Epcot
My family was a huge fan of this restaurant on our last trip. One of my favorite parts was the unique drink options. Moon Rocks combines coconut, blue cotton candy syrup, lemonade, moon dust, and moon rocks, and is served with a pack of Space 220’s collectible trading cards.
Frozen Mint Julep Lemonade – Casey’s Corner, Magic Kingdom
This is a super refreshing treat to enjoy with some corn dog nuggets on Main Street. It’s frozen lemonade with a hint of mint, but to me, it feels more sophisticated.
Night Blossom-Pongu Pongu, Animal Kingdom
The Night Blossom is a frozen drink with three layers of flavors topped with boba balls. This is one of my favorite treats in Animal Kingdom, and it is also available with Rum for an alcoholic version.
Sunset Boulevard – The Hollywood Brown Derby Lounge, Hollywood Studios
This drink is another that is not overly complicated yet feels sophisticated. It combines Sprite and tangerine and is served in a tall glass with a souvenir Glow Cube.
Best Mocktails in Disney Springs
Florida Crush-Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’, Disney Springs
An alcoholic version of this drink made with Vodka is on the menu at Homecomin’, but you can ask for it to be made as a virgin drink. It features muddled orange and strawberries, a splash of freshly squeezed Florida orange juice, and agave syrup.
Smoke & Mirrors – The Edison, Disney Springs
The Edison features a large menu of Old Fashioned cocktails, but there are also a few mocktails worth trying as well. This drink includes pineapple juice, lemon juice, lime juice, and orgeat. If you’re like me and have no idea what orgeat is, according to my quick web search it’s a cooling drink made from orange flower water and either barley or almonds.
Strawberry Basil Lemonade- Paddlefish, Disney Springs
If you’re a seafood lover, Paddlefish is one of the must-visit restaurants in Disney Springs. Even if you’re not a seafood lover, there are options for everyone on the menu. This refreshing non-alcoholic drink option includes fresh strawberries, basil, lemonade, and Sprite.
Poisonless Dart – Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar
Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar is a great choice in Disney Springs for a drink and an appetizer. The Poisonless Dart combines soda water, mint, simple syrup, and fresh lime juice, and is similar to a non-alcoholic mojito. I recommend pairing it with the Air Pirate’s Cargo Loaded pretzel.
Best Mocktails at the Disney Resorts
Purple Penguin – Citricos, Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
This is one of my favorites on the list because penguins are my very favorite animal. This drink is a mix of pineapple, peach, lemon, lavender, and grenadine. It’s topped with house-made seltzer and is served in a penguin glass.
Garden Spritzer – Enchanted Rose, Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
The Enchanted Rose is a newer lounge at the Grand Floridian inspired by Beauty and the Beast. If you’re looking for a fancy option that feels like a traditional cocktail, the Garden Spritzer is a good choice. This drink features Seedlip Garden 108 Herbal Distilled Non-alcoholic Spirit, lime, agave, and soda.
Hibiscus Coconut Refresher- Bar Riva, Disney’s Riviera Resort
The Riviera resort is one of the most beautiful in Disney in my opinion. While I have never stayed in a room here, it’s one I love to visit for dining. They have several great dining options, located along the skyline. As the name implies, this drink available at Bar Riva has hibiscus and coconut along with honey, strawberry, and soda water.
Skipper Sipper – Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
Trader Sam’s is a hugely popular lounge with excellent theming. If you are near the Polynesian it’s worth a stop. This drink features a blend of tropical juices, organic agave nectar, Falernum, mint, fresh lime juice, and soda water.
Schweitzer Falls – Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
Since I couldn’t choose just one drink at Trader Sam’s, here’s another option for you. The Schweitzer Falls mixes tropical juices with Sam’s Gorilla Grog and is topped with Sprite.
Although this post includes 16 delightful mocktails for you to choose from in Disney World, it is by no means an exhaustive list. In addition to those drinks listed on a non-alcoholic menu, you can also usually ask for a regular cocktail to be made without alcohol.
I hope you found this list of the best mocktails to try in Disney World helpful. Leave me a comment and let me know which Disney mocktail is your favorite.
