Two of my friends recently did this! I did not complete it, but here's my advice since I was with them and taking notes for when I participate.
1. Start early! The showcase opens at 11, so be in line for your first drink at 11. We started in Mexico and there was a line already formed at Cava del Tequila.
2. Pace yourself. Commit to being in World Showcase! We left to do some rides and eat lunch at the front of the park which on one hand helped sober us up a little bit but on the other hand took up time away from hitting countries in the showcase.
3. Share drinks! My friends wanted to drink their own (although my non-beer-drinking friend let me help her with some of her beers) but I wanted to split some drinks with people (some drinks I wanted on my own - others I would have been happy to share, like heavier beers).
4. Drink water and eat snacks.
5. Be prepared to spend a whole lot of money between the drinks and the snacks (and anything else you want to do).
6. Be safe.
7. Be smart.
Our route was as follows (and also here are some drink recommendations)
- Mexico (Cava del Tequila: Wild Passion Fruit Margarita - I got mine without a rim)
- Norway (Carlsberg Beer)
- Left the showcase for rides/lunch
- Canada (My friend got this maple bourbon drink from the stand that was very good).
- UK (I got a snakebite which is a pint of half cider and half lager.)
- France (waited here for a bit to meet Belle. My friend got a mimosa? I think?)
- Morocco (stopped here for a bit for some food. No idea what my friend got.)
- Japan (stopped for some store browsing. I think they got shots?)
- America (friends got sam adams and i got a funnel cake. I had a hard time justifying buying/drinking beers I can go to the brewery to drink. Also felt this way about the Carlsberg in Norway. I could buy a six pack at my local packie.)
- Italy (I think my friend got Prosecco)
- Germany (Schofferhofer! The grapefruit beer! This is delicious.)
- China (I don't know, I left them behind and started to leave for the resort)
My friend posted every drink/stop she made on instagram. If you'd like to see that, let me know and I'll PM you the link.
