Disney Refuses to Disclose What’s In the $5,000 Star Wars Drink on the Disney Wish

Disney is apparently reluctant to tell the media what’s actually in the drink. Multiple members of the media have asked what is in the Kaiburr Crystal drink and Disney has refused to answer. An odd choice for a media cruise that is intended to produce positive stories (and bookings) for the brand new ship. As of right now, the only description that Disney has given is the official menu listing, which says that the drink is “the galaxy’s rarest and valuable cocktail”.

Just so everyone knows, I have asked, and asked, and asked what’s in the Kaiburr Crystal at Star Wars Hyperspace Lounge and no one will tell me anything.

Even in the down market we're experiencing, DIS stock is doing worse than expected. I wouldn't recommend stock with Chapek around. Sure Disney is making money, but there is some glimmer of hope that the horrible customer feedback may be reflecting in the stock price ... although I'm not so sure of that.

Hoping if I buy now though that it will go up in the future.

In regards to the $5,000 drink...It's incredibly strange not to disclose what is in something that people will consume and digest.

 

[Brocktoon]

Please no one take investment advice from me ... but as someone who holds a nice chunk of DIS stock ... I'm thinking the stock may still plummet some more through '22 as revenge travel subsides and people tighten the purse all sorts of things as we may head into recession. I really don't want to bet against Disney though so if the stock hits bottom around 4thQ '22 into 1stQ '23, it may be a good time to start buying around early next year.

... But I can also be just as wrong as the next person

Yeah. What if a person has an allergy to an ingredient?

because people would see it's not worth the $5k.

 

[rlk]

because people would see it's not worth the $5k.

Is there any ingredient that justifies that price?

 

[Brocktoon]

Is there any ingredient that justifies that price?

I'm thinking the price is more of a PR move ... kinda like where you hear stories of places having $1000 burgers. Disney probably doesn't even expect any sane person to order it, but put it on the menu to drum up interest. I still find it odd that they won't list the ingredients ... knowing that nothing may justify the true price they could still do something like using a pricey rare liquor and shaved gold leaf etc ...

Can Disney legally refuse to disclose the ingredients of the drink?

Can Disney legally refuse to disclose the ingredients of the drink?

I’ve never been to a bar where they disclose this when ordering a drink. This might be different but it may be similar in some respects
