Time to grab your passport MagicBand and get ready for some Drinking Around the World at EPCOT!
This experience has become a must-do for Disney adults who want to tackle more than just the rides at Walt Disney World. And with 11 countries in the World Showcase to explore, you can sip your way through an epic global tasting tour, one drink at a time.
We’ve taken on the unofficial drinking challenge ourselves more times than we’d like to admit, and we’ve learned a few things along the way that we think you’ll find helpful – like which drinks are actually worth spending money on.
So, keep reading for our list of the most popular drinks (with prices!) when Drinking Around the World at EPCOT.
Important note: Drinking is fun, but only if you do it responsibly. Make sure you’re knocking back lots of water between those pints and don’t forget to eat.
Drinking Around the World at EPCOT
We’ve made sure to include a variety of drink types— beers, cocktails, and wines—to try to accommodate all different preferences and budgets. And yes, our lists are all things we’ve tried, too. We’ve spent a lot of time “researching” this. You know – for science.
Also, everything we’ve included are items that are available year-round, but we HIGHLY recommend you check out the EPCOT festival booths for additional options, too! Thinking about taking a grown-ups trip to EPCOT? Check out Complete Guide to EPCOT for Adults for all our best tips and info.

Mexico
Best Places to Grab a Drink:
- Choza de Margarita (Outdoor bar)
- La Cava del Tequila (Indoor bar)
- La Cantina de San Angel (Outdoor Quick Service restaurant)
- Festival Booth
Most Popular Drinks:
- Frozen Lime Margarita, avg. price $12.75 (La Cantina de San Angel)
- “Top Shelf” Clásica, avg. price $18.00 (La Cantina de San Angel)

- Blood Orange Margarita, avg. price $18.00 (La Cava)
- Tequila shots, avg. price varies depending on selection (La Cava)
Margaritas are the name of the game in the Mexico Pavilion, but when we are looking for something lighter (and less expensive!) we go with the the Hercules Lagermaiz—it’s refreshing, and very easy to drink as you you wander EPCOT looking for your next victim drink.
When we are really in the zone (or just looking to cool off), we head inside to La Cava and grab the Avocado Margarita—because it makes us feel like we are doing something healthy since it has avocado in it.
Norway
Best Places to Grab a Drink:
- Norway Beer Cart (Outdoor bar)
- Kringla Bakeri og Kafe (Indoor bakery & bar)
Most Popular Drinks:
- Carlsberg Pilsner, avg. price $12.00 (Norway Beer Cart and Kringla Bakeri og Kafe)
- Einstök White Ale, avg. price $12.00 (Norway Beer Cart)
- Frozen Viking Coffee, avg. price $15.50 (Kringla Bakeri og Kafe)
Norway has some delicious beer options – but the sad thing is that it feels like they struggle keeping the beers on tap, so you just never know what you’re going to get.
When available, we go with the Carlsberg Pilsner or the Einstök White Ale – both are delicious and light and refreshing, which is typically what we need on a long EPCOT day.
If we need a pick-me-up, we head inside Kringla Bakeri og Kafe to grab some caffeine in the form of the Frozen Viking Coffee. It is delicious and probably loaded with calories but when we are hot and tired, none of that matters.
China
Best Places to Grab a Drink:
- Joy of Tea (Outdoor bar)
- Lotus Blossum Cafe (Indoor Quick Service restaurant)
- House of Good Fortune Bar (Bar inside the House of Good Fortune shop)
- Festival Booth
Most Popular Drinks:
- Honey Hibiscus Hard Iced Tea, avg. price $12.75 (Joy of Tea)
- Tipsy Ducks in Love, avg. price $14.50 (Joy of Tea)
- Dragon Butterfly, avg. price $15.00(Joy of Tea)
- Plum Wine, avg. price $9.75 (Lotus Blossom Cafe)
- Cherry Blossom Pilsner, avg. price $9.75 (Lotus Blossom Cafe)
- Honey Jasmine Lager, avg. price $9.95 (Lotus Blossom Cafe)
- Lucky Buddha Beer, avg. price $7.00 (House of Good Fortune Bar)
Honestly, we’re not the biggest fans of the drinks in China. A few are decent, but some are so strong they could strip paint, while others taste like watered-down juice.
BUT – when the drinks are mixed just right, there are a few things that we’ve really enjoyed, like Honey Hibiscus Hard Iced Tea (refreshing) and Tipsy Ducks in Love, which is super fun to say, plus it has bourbon and coffee and tea and chocolate – four our most favorite things in the world.
For beers, Cherry Blossom Pilsner and Honey Jasmine Lager are ones we have ordered several times. But if there are long lines at Joy of Tea or Lotus Blossom Cafe, head to the bar inside of the House of Good Fortune and grab a beer there. We like the Lucky Buddha.
Germany
Best Places to Grab a Drink:
- Sommerfest (Quick Service counter)
- Bier Stand (Cart)
- Festival Booth
Most Popular Drinks:
- Schöfferhofer Grapefruit Hefeweizen, avg. price $11.50 (Sommerfest & Bier Stand)
- August Kesseler Pinor Noir, avg. price $14.00 (Sommerfest)
- Warsteiner Dunkel, avg. price $12.25 (Sommerfest & Bier Stand)
- Beck’s Pilsner, avg. price $12.25 (Bier Stand)
- Radeberger Pilsner, avg. price $12.25 (La Cava)
It might be against the law to NOT order a beer in the Germany pavilion.
There are lots and lots of great options here. The Schöfferhofer Grapefruit Hefeweizen has a cult-like following, and if you’re looking for something to maintain the party without adding a bunch of alcohol, this is a great option due to its low ABV.
But truly, any of the beers here are great and if you are lucky enough to be visiting during a festival, we suggest you head to the festival booth and get a beer flight so you can sample lots of different options at once.
Italy
Best Places to Grab a Drink:
- Beer and Wine Cart (Cart)
- Tutto Gusto Wine Cellar (Indoor wine bar)
- Pizza al Taglio (Via Napoli Pizza Window)
- La Bottega Italiana (Wine counter inside the shop)
- Gelateria Toscana (Quick Service gelato stand)
- Festival Booth
Most Popular Drinks:
- Bellini, avg. price $14.00 (Beer and Wine Cart)
- Limoncello cocktail, avg. price $15.00 (Beer and Wine Cart)
- Wine, avg. price $13.00 (Everywhere in the pavilion)
- Espresso Martini, avg. price $18.00 (Tutto Gusto Wine Cellar)
- Frozen Italian Margarita, avg. price $12.00 (Gelateria Toscana)
- Frozen Red Sangria, avg. price $12.00 (Gelateria Toscana)
- Boozy Float, avg. price $18.00 (Gelateria Toscana)
When it comes to Italy, you’ll be tempted to stop at the festival booth because there is often a long line, but don’t do it. Instead, head back into Tutto Gusto and grab yourself an Espresso Martini.
If Espresso Martinis aren’t your thing, literally every cart and booth serves wine – of all types. And just like it is against the law to go to the Germany pavilion without ordering a beer, I also kind of think it is illegal to go to the Italy Pavilion without ordering wine.
American Adventure
Best Places to Grab a Drink:
- Block & Hans (Outdoor bar)
- Fife & Drum (Outdoor bar)
- Regal Eagle Outdoor Bar (Outdoor bar)
- Festival Booth
Most Popular Drinks:
- Beer flight, avg. price $12.00 (Block & Hans)

- Frozen Red Stag Lemonade, avg. price $15.00 (Fife & Drum)
- Tennessee Lemonade, avg. price $16.00 (Regal Eagle Outdoor Bar)
- Frozen Mint Julep, avg. price $15.00 (Regal Eagle Outdoor Bar)
- Moonshine Sour avg. price $14.00 (Regal Eagle Outdoor Bar)
When we are in the American Adventure Pavilion we find ourselves going back and back for the Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale (which isn’t super unique, but it is mighty tasty), the beer flight, and the Tennessee Lemonade which is a super refreshing cocktail made from a blend of whiskey, lemonade, and peach .
But if those don’t sound amazing to you, there are tons of American Craft beers available (too many to list here) plus the other frozen drink options we’ve noted above – so no matter what your taste you’re likely to find something you’ll like.
Japan
Best Places to Grab a Drink:
- The Garden House (Outdoor kiosk/bar)
- Kabuki Cafe (Outdoor kiosk/bar)
- Katsura Grill (Quick Service restaurant)
- Misukoshi (Store with a sake bar)
- Festival Booth
Most Popular Drinks:
- Kirin Frozen Draft, avg. price $12.00 (The Garden House)
- Violet Sake, avg. price $11.25 (The Garden House)
- Cocktail Flight, avg. price $30.00 (The Garden House)
- Sake, avg. price $9.00 (Fife & Drum)
- Sake Slushy, avg. price $12.00 (Kabuki Cafe)
In the Japan Pavilion, there are 2 things here that we will have nearly every trip: the Violet Saki and the Frozen Kirin.
If you are sharing with friends, we also recommend the Cocktail Flight. Yes, it has a $30.00 price tag but the drinks are large and delicious and perfect for sharing.
Finally, the festival booth here is typically a great option for drinks, too. If you are looking to save some money (or are just looking for a smaller sized drink), grab a 6 oz version of one of the beers they have.
Morocco
Best Places to Grab a Drink:
- Oasis Sweets and Sips (Outdoor window)
- Spice Road Table bar (Indoor bar)
- Sangria Sips (Outdoor bar)
- Tangierine Cafe (Festival booth and Indoor Quick Service)
Most Popular Drinks:
- Frozen Mint Tea, avg. price $15.50 (Oasis Sweets & Sips)
- Mediterranean Beer, avg. price $12.75 (Oasis Sweets & Sips)
- Pomegranate, Hibiscus, or Blood Orange Mimosa, avg. price $14.00 (Spice Road Table Bar)
- Sahara Spritz, avg. price $14.00 (Spice Road Table Bar)
- Iced Mint Tea, avg. price $15.00 (Spice Road Table Bar)
- Sharable Sangria, avg. price $14.00 (Sangria Sips)
Morocco is home to one of our most favorite drinks in all of EPCOT – the Frozen Mint Tea. Maybe it is because we are always so hot and tired by the time we hit this pavilion, but holy cow that frozen drink is just so damn refreshing and perfect.
If that doesn’t sound amazing to you – our second recommendation is to head inside of Spice Road Table to the bar to grab the Sahara Spritz, which has cucumber, mint vodka, soda water, and lime. Not only will the drink cool you off, but you’ll get a blissful few minutes in the AC.
Finally – don’t sleep on the festival beer or cider flights available at Tangierine Cafe.
France
Best Places to Grab a Drink:
- Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie (Indoor Quick Service)
- Les Vins des Chefs de France (Outdoor kiosk)
- L’Artisan Des Glaces (Quick Service)

- Mimosa, avg. price $15.00 (Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie)
- Ice Cream Martini, avg. price $15.00 (L’Artisan Des Glaces)
There are tons of great options in the France pavilion, but the most popular are typically anything frozen, like the Orange Grand Marnier Slush, the Citron Grey Goose Slush, and the Frosé.
The festival booth always has a frozen drink option, too.
If frozen drinks just aren’t your thing, then we’d recommend the Kronenbourg 1664 or one of the French ciders from Crêpes a Emporters.
United Kingdom
Best Places to Grab a Drink:
- Rose and Crown Pub (Indoor bar)
- Rose and Crown Beer Garden/UK Beer Cart (Outdoor kiosk)
- Yorkshire County Fish Shop (Outdoor Quick Service window)
Most Popular Drinks:
- Pub blends, avg. price $11.25 (Rose & Crown Pub)
- Whiskey Flight, avg. price $23.00 (Rose & Crown Pub)
- Imperial Sampler, avg. price $14.75 (Rose & Crown Pub)
- Harp Lager Draft, avg. price $12.00 (Rose and Crown Beer Garden/UK Beer Cart)
- Bombardier Amber Draft, avg. price $12.00 (Rose and Crown Beer Garden/UK Beer Cart)
- Magners Pear Cider avg. price $10.75 (Rose and Crown Beer Garden/UK Beer Cart)
We could probably spend all day at the Rose and Crown Pub. It is not only one of our most favorite bars in EPCOT, but it is also one of the most popular spots for groups like the Disney Day Drinkers Club.
The Rose & Crown is a beer lovers dream. You can’t go wrong with one of the pub blends (mix of 2 different beers). Truly – they are all really good, so pick one based on your personal beer taste.
Can’t decide? Go with the Imperial Flight and sample several beers at once. Or the Whiskey flight and sip while enjoy the atomosphere.
Canada
Best Places to Grab a Drink:
- Canada Popcorn Cart (Outdoor cart)
- Trading Post Shop Bar (Bar inside the Trading Post shop)
- Festival Booth
Most Popular Drinks:
- Moosehead Beer, avg. price $10.75 (Canada Popcorn Cart)
- Ottawa Apple, avg. price $15.00 (Canada Popcorn Cart)
- Canadian Ice Wine, avg. price $13.00 (Trading Post Shop Bar)
- Canadian Bottled Beer, avg. price $9.00 (Trading Post Shop Bar)
There honestly aren’t THAT many non festival options in Canada, but that doesn’t mean what is here is bad.
The Ottawa Apple is delicious and definitely worth a try. And, you can’t go wrong with Moosehead Beer.
The Canada festival booth is also typically one of our favorites, so if you’re looking for something other than what we’ve listed, head there and grab a beer (or even a flight).
