Best must have alcoholic drink to have at Epcot?

[ChipDale]

Is La Cava del Tequila inside the pyramid or out on the promenade? I am a sucker for a good blood orange margarita. You guys are making me thirsty.

Watching this thread for my upcoming trip. My DH likes to “drink his way around the world” with beer, while I usually refrain. I’m a picky drinker. I prefer sweet and fruity cocktails. It seems like people love the grey goose slush so I will have to try that. Any other good options for a lady with a sweet side?

I had an amoretto peach Bellini in Italy and it was delicious

I don't like margaritas or tequila drinks (or peach anything), my favorite is the Tipsy Ducks in Love at the Joy of Tea kiosk in China. I tried the slushies in France, they're good, but not Tipsy Ducks great!

We like to start in Mexico with the jalapeño margaritas at la Cava - perfect balance of spicy and sweet. If you follow them on twitter they give you free chips and salsa to soak up the booze!

Their jalapeño margaritas are the best! So I just started following them on Twitter - how do I get the chips and salsa next time I'm back?

I just wanted to point out something to everyone who loves the Grey Goose Citron Slushy:

It's just two parts lemon sorbet to one part Grey Goose Le Citron Vodka. I promise. Try it yourself at home. I make it all the time. Get a high quality lemon sorbet for best results.

It is inside and it is a very tiny place...crowded when we went but got pretty fast service. Nowhere to sit inside so we took our drinks outside to a bench. So delicious! I had the feeling the drinks were better inside than those being sold at the outdoor stand by Mexico but I don't really know. Should have tried one of each!

You just show them your phone and mention you're a twitter follower! Free chips and salsa if you have your drink there, or other Twitter offer is a discounted tequila shot at the bar or your table. Their salsa is smoky and delicious and goes great with the jalapeno rita L )

Can’t wait to get back to Epcot and booze my way around the world after this thread!

Assume you put it in a blender?

You can, but it isn't necessary. I usually just scoop the sorbet into a cup, pour in 2 shots and mix it up with a spoon. If it's too thick, add more vodka.

I do leave the sorbet out for 5-7 min so it is soft when I scoop it.

I have to ask the obvious. When you say Grey Goose slushy "in France"--where in France? I can't wait to try one on my trip in July!

 

[Tiki_Sara]

There’s a stall out front near the lake, you won’t miss it. Not least because you’ll see people with the drinks walking away.

Avocado Margarita and Gran Marnier Slushy

Can you get the Cava de tequila margaritas to go? Dying to try the avocado one but not sure I’ll have time to sit and enjoy it out Epcot day :-/

This is a great tip! I am trying it tomorrow!

Yup, there are 2 lines when you arrive, one for bar take-away and one for tables...or if you arrive right when they open at 11:00, might not be any line at all!

Grapefruit beer in Germany for me, goes down like kool-aid.

It is inside the building on your far right facing the pyramid. It has a to-go line so you can order those yummy blood orange and jalapeño margaritas and enjoy them in the World Showcase.

They are my two favorite flavors. The blood orange is great on a hot day when you’re looking for something refreshing. The jalapeño is really awesome for when you want a mellow buzz like during Illuminations. It makes your lips tingle in such a pleasant way.

I am SO EXCITED for F&W this coming October!!!! Cannot wait! Yum!

There is an ice cream martini at Artisans L'Glace in France. You pick your ice cream and then either Grand Marnier, Whipped Cream Vodka, or Rum. I got Chocolate with Whipped Cream Vodka. Yum...and they say it's only one shot on the menu, but they gave two pours. It made for a happy trip around the WS

I also like the Pimm's Cup at R&C. It was my favorite drink in the summer when I lived in England. So I have it when I can find it and I'm not at home, where I make my own.

From one Jersey gal to another (is that Point Pleasant in your avatar?), please let me advise you—buy the F&W sampler package if they offer it.

It’s like $60 plus tax for 8 tickets that you can use toward almost any item offered at the kiosks. So say, $8 per ticket. Use them for the good cocktails like the LePassion Grey Goose martini from the France booth. Or any of the F&W drink specials from the Joffrey’s carts.

You can’t use them on flights and there was one other restriction that I can’t recall, but having those coupons made it easy to justify purchasing many LePassions. LOL! They were divine.

The year before, I went crazy over the jalapeño margarita in Mexico, but I won’t be there next fall. Hitting the F&G in May instead.
