so it is the little safe from the Mandalorian.... 4 shots... 4 glow cubes shaped like Kyber crystals.... that is it? is there a ceremony?

I'm guessing you get to keep the container as well as the shot glasses. The container or shot glasses could be made of gold or something, and worth thousands just themselves.

When the Boston Bruins won the Stanley Cup, look at their alcohol charges. Especially $100,000 for just ONE bottle:

Disney Wish Star Wars Bar Reuses Souvenir Mugs from Galactic Starcruiser, Oga’s Cantina

While the lounge may be somewhat unique, the souvenir mugs that guests can purchase are not. Brooke McDonald tweeted a photo of the souvenir mugs that are available for $12 in addition to the cost of any cocktail. A closer look at the mugs reveals that they’re just the same mugs that are available from the Sunlight Lounge in the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser and Oga’s Cantina in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.

Here’s a look at the mugs from their respective Disney Parks locations.

It's served in a 'camtono', which was an prop ice-cream maker used briefly in 'Empire Strikes Back'. If you're ever curious about out one of the strangest Star Wars fan cult traditions, check our the 'Running of the Hoods' that takes place during the Star Wars Celebration conventions. Kudos to Favreau and Filoni for bringing back the camtono in the Mandalorian!

Now booking incorporating these awesome extras into your travel plans is easier than ever as the options have been added to the My Disney Experience app!

Under “Enchanting Extras Collection” guests will now find the horse drawn excursions.

Take in rustic beauty as you travel along charming pathways on a horse-drawn carriage.

Schedule & Pricing
You'll board your carriage for a 25-minute ride at theRiverside Levee Marina at Disney's Port Orleans Resort- Riverside. Carriages fit up to 4 adults (or 2 adults and
3 small children). Each horse-drawn carriage ride costs $55.

How to Book
Advance reservations are highly recommended, as availability is limited.
Reservations can be made on this page or with the My Disney Experience app up to 60 days prior to your visit. Same-day reservations and walk-ins can be made
on a limited basis and are subject to availability.

I’ve never done this but was thinking could be a nice add on for our upcoming trip. One question I had was whether anyone know if kids under 3 count to the total for kids?

There's an item pictured but not listed. In the picture with the Smokehouse Cuban at City works, there's what appears to be a key lime pie shake (maybe a cocktail?).
