oooh! The Grand Marnier one sounds delish too
I'm definitely going to try the plum-wine-and-tea slushies!
Where/how do you get the wines of the world tour? Is that only during the food & wine festival or is it available all year?
This drink was featured on a Samantha Brown episode of Disney. I just had to have one after watching, it was delicious. I can't wait to go back and have it again!
My DH has been talking about the plum wine green tea slushie for the last 6 months!
It had about as much wine as in the small glass of straight plum wine you can also get in China. It's much larger than the Grey Goose slush, and not very sweet at all (my DH hates sweet beverages; he only drinks water, unsweetened tea, and alcohol).
Nope. Not restricted to the Festival.
You go into one of the wine shops in France, Germany, or Italy and pay your... I'm gonna say it was $21? Last time we did it... something like that.
Anyhow, they give you a 'pass' and your two samples from their country. We usually start in France but you can start at any of the three.
You then wander along the World Showcase and when you get to the next wine shop (in our case, Germany), you present your 'pass' and they'll serve you up two samples from their country.
Then you make your way to the third (Italy for us) and present your pass... etc., etc.
The samples are about a 3-oz pour, although sometimes they are decidedly more heavy-handed (usually when a younger male is pouring), but still it is not like a full 5-to-7-oz restaurant pour. Still, 6 for about $20 is not bad, and it's a fun way to compare and contrast various countries' wines.
I know you have gotten a ton of replies but I just had to add my 2 cents...YUM! I would never had known about them without the dis, and like so many other things it was a true joy.
I am not even really a vodka drinker, but on a hot summer day, GLORIOUS!
