We Found a TWIST on a Classic Animal Kingdom Drink

Hello from Disney’s Animal Kingdom!

Animal Kingdom

We’ve been BUSY trying all the St. Patrick’s Day food around Disney World, but that doesn’t mean we’ve forgotten about the parks’ other eats and treats! Among St. Paddy’s cupcakes, ice cream sammies, and shakes, we still found time for an off-the-menu sip at Animal Kingdom!

You may be familiar with the Dunbar Margarita at Thirsty River Bar and Trek Snacks. It’s got Jose Cuervo Gold tequila, triple sec, ginger, sweet-and-sour mix, and fresh lime juice. Okay, that all sounds great, right? But the Avalanche Margarita takes that and makes it FROZEN. And the end result is pretty fun!

Voila! A frozen margarita!

The Avalanche Margarita is also at Thirsty River Bar and Trek Snacks. The ONLY difference between it and the Dunbar Margarita is that it’s frozen and is a bright blue color! When we asked where that mystery blue came from, the bartender wasn’t too sure because the drink is premixed (womp, womp). But it could be blue curaçao!

Where’d this mystery blue come from?!

This margarita comes with a salt rim. If you prefer your rim sugared, you’re outta luck, because they don’t have any sugar here! The marg itself wasn’t sour or tart — it was actually a little bit sweet! We do wish the blue would have added a fun flavor, but it was tasteless.

The Avalanche Margarita is a great alternative to a margarita on the rocks, and it was super refreshing. But if tequila isn’t your thing, we recommend the Khumbu Icefall from this location! It’s got raspberry, coconut, and guava rum. Sounds tasty!

It’s sweet AND refreshing!

This sweet sip is $13. We’ll keep an eye out for more new drinks and let you know what we think of ’em! Stay tuned to DFB for more Disney news.
