A popular EPCOT activity amongst Disney Fans and Foodies is known as “drinking around the world.” This phrase has been given to Park Guests who set out to try one drink in each World Showcase pavilion. While this can be a fun journey, if you take on this challenge, we ask all Guests to drink and enjoy responsibly. EPCOT offers delicious drinks with and without alcohol.
EPCOT’s World Showcase is home to 11 different country pavilions, each with its own delicious flavors and feats. Today we’re taking a look at the best cocktails EPCOT’s World Showcase has to offer and presenting you with a guide to drinking around World Showcase.
Fiesta Margarita
To start our trip, drinking around the World Showcase, visit Choza de Margarita in the Mexico Pavilion. At this Quick Service dining location, we love the Fiesta Margarita. This frozen drink combines strawberry, classic lime, and mango loco margaritas for a splendid and bright drink.

Following the World Showcase Lagoon, we journey to Norway to Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe. At this bakery, you’ll find divine pastries and drinks. Our favorite is the Frozen Viking Coffee, featuring Baileys Irish Cream Liqueur and Kamora Coffee Liqueur with Coffee-Chocolate Sauce and garnished with Coffee-Chocolate Crunch.
Tipsy Ducks in Love
Next, let’s visit Joy of Tea in EPCOT’s China Pavilion. This small but mighty dining location offers bold flavors in its tea and drinks. For a refreshing cocktail, try out the Tipsy Ducks in Love. This quirky cocktail includes bourbon, black tea, coffee, cream, and chocolate.
Schöfferhofer Pink Grapefruit Hefeweizen
As we head to Germany, I must admit we’re making an exception. Instead of a cocktail, we’re recommending a refreshing, fruity beer. At Sommerfest, try the iconic and beloved Schöfferhofer Pink Grapefruit Hefeweizen.
Bellini
Continue your trip drinking around the World Showcase to Italy, and stop by Gelateria Toscana for a sparkling beverage. Though this Quick Service location has many delicious desserts and cocktails, we love the Bellini made with peach puree and Prosecco Sparkling Wine.
Tennessee Lemonade
When you reach the American Adventure Pavilion, head to Regal Eagle Smokehouse: Craft Drafts & Barbecue for a cocktail of Southern flavors. The Tennessee Lemonade features Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey with Minute Maid Premium Lemonade and Peach.

In EPCOT’s Japan Pavilion, you’ll find a more hidden cocktail gem at Garden House. Guests will discover Garden House in front of Katsura Grill. At this dining location, we love the Violet Sake cocktail. This drink is refreshing and bright, with a unique citrus flavor.
Frozen Citrus Pomegranate Slushy
When you reach Morocco, stop by Oasis Sips and Sweets, settled against World Showcase Lagoon. You’ll find the delicious Frozen Citrus Pomegranate Slushy with Absolut Mandarin vodka at this stand. This citrus slushy is unsuspecting but a favorite amongst many Disney Foodies.
Ice Cream Martini
