After riding Flight of Passage (Which was so awesome!) I picked up a drink from Royal Anandapur Tea Co. I never noticed before this year that they have some really good alcoholic options. We usually just stroll right past.

Kahlua Tini
kahlua, grey goose vodka with light cream topped with ice coffee $9.49



I love iced coffee anyway but the addition of Kahlua was genius. Would definitely recommend this one.

Later on I was absolutely boiling. It was super humid & I as really struggling so a frozen drink was in order.

Khumbu Icefall
Cruzan guava rum blended with coconut and raspberry puree. $9.00



I can't really remember this much but what a pretty colour!

Andy got a Bud Light.

This is totally

We stayed until Animal Kingdom kicking out time which was 8-9pm ish. On the way back in an Uber we realised we were peckish so decided to check out Walgreens.

Somehow we ended up with microwave junk.









They were surprisingly nice (despite the potato skins looking god awful) & hit the spot.

Ooh those bagel bites look delicious

Love love love all the cocktails, obviously! If we're over out there at the same time in the future we really must have a cocktail-off

Food & Wine - take 2! On a much smaller scale though.

It was still as hot as walking directly on the sun!


China

Spicy Chicken Bao Bun – $5.25



Now this looks much better than the previous version. Andy enjoyed this once again, especially with the addition of Sriracha.

I chose something new.

Chicken Potstickers – $4.00





Not amazing but they were nice. Quite a ginger kick to them but I prefer the 'Ohana version.


Hops & Barley

Smoked Beef Brisket and Pimento Cheese served on Griddled Garlic Toast – $5.50





Something we have tried before & didn't love. I thought perhaps it was a fluke as it sounds so good. Once again it was OK but we didn't rave about it.

That was short & sweet!

This is a permanent fixture in France, not a F&W offering.

Strawberry Sorbet



This did wow me! It tasted like proper fresh, in season strawberries. It was almost creamy too as the texture was so smooth. Sorbet can sometimes be a bit icy but this was perfect!

I will definitely get this again.

Challenge accepted!

We headed out onto the Boardwalk but were too early for Abracadabar which doesn't open until a bit later so we popped into ESPN to kill time.

Andy had boring drinks.

To start I had a Magical Star.









Had to be done! Pretty colours. It's sweet, easy to drink & fun.

Then I had an ESPY.





Not quite as fun but still delicious.

When Abracadabar finally opened, we were there like a shot! I had been desperate to go & missed out the previous year. It's right up my alley - I love anything like this or 1920's prohibition themed.

It's so cute in there & obviously has a heavy magic theme with lots of props and curiosities to look at.







We took seats at the cool bar - which seemed popular because as the evening went on, the bar quickly filled up but there were plenty of tables free. I think it had a lot to do with the fact the bar staff were so welcome & friendly. They really made the effort to chat to everyone.



There as one server there in particular who was a riot. He had the most comical, dirty laugh ever. It wasn't over the top annoying, just bit a bit "ooh matron" lol. I cannot remember his name but if you hear it, you will know!

Anyway - drinks.



I chose probably the most pedestrian offering on the menu.

Hoodunit's Punch





Very nice.

Andy chose Gumption Hard Cider, not knowing what to expect as we'd never heard of it.



It was good. A bit sweet - somewhere between Angry Orchard & Woodpecker.

We might have had more than one drink but I only have these pictures - I know we were in there for a while soaking it all in and we had a blast.

This is one to add to your list if you're looking for a relaxing pit stop to imbide in something a bit stronger than frozen lemonade.

I really want to go to Abracadabar!

It looks super cool. Enjoying all the cocktails as always
