We'll have the refillable mugs this year. If my memory is correct, there were pretty much NO healthy options for little ones at the resort drink stations.

What did your kids drink?
 
This is one of the reasons the DDP doesn't make sense for us in 2013, if milk were an option then we'd be talking! I think I remember thinking to myself that lemonade was the "healthiest" option...
 
At home, DD mostly just drinks water and sometimes milk. At WDW, with the refillable mugs, I usually let her get a little bit of lemonade mixed in with her water, just to give it some flavor, and feel like we are "getting something" for the mugs. I also wish milk was an option, we end up spending a lot of snack credits on it. Now, she has started drinking unsweetened tea quite a bit so that might be a good option for her when we go next time. At least I assume they have that at the drink stations - never paid much attention before though.
 
My son drank the Minute Maid light lemonade or Powerade.

It's one of the many reasons it doesn't work for us.
 
Our DS drinks water and rice milk, but I have a feeling he'll be asking for/ getting one of those mugs anyway!
 
At home the kids normally drink water and soda/juice when we go out to dinner. At Disney we left them have whatever they want
 
My daughter has had Juvenile Diabetes since she was 5... and she's not fond of plain water...TRICKY at WDW. We always brought some of the iced tea mix "to go" packets. (Celestial Seasonings makes natural ones.)

We are on vacation. Even though we don't keep pop in the house that's what we drink at Disney.
 
We had a five year old last year. They all bought the refillable mugs and I had brought tons of crystal lite-to-go.

Her favorites were the raspberry lemonade and the citrus ade.
 
My kids will be allowed to fill their mugs with soda. I think/hope they can get milk with their meals though. At home they have milk or water unless we're eating out, and even then I often make them choose milk or chocolate milk. I don't mind a little soda everyday while on vacation.

We never had trouble getting milk or juice with our meals .

Yes, it is available at the resort. But the OP wanted to know what was included with the refillable mug for children.
 
Unfortunately.. they were drinking pop. But things have changed over the years. (We haven't been back since 2005) They are definitely drinking more water now, so next year, they are probably going to be drinking more water. They also like the Arnold Palmer. Just mix the ice tea and lemonade. I think they have Nestle Ice tea.
 
Anything he wants! We are on vacation, after all :)

However, when we eat at TS restaurants, he usually gets chocolate milk.
 
We also just let them drink soda or powerade while on vacation. Since we don't drink that at home, only milk & water, it's just a special vacation treat. Table service they order milk (as do I oftentimes lol!) but at the drink stations, I let them choose whatever they want. For one week every year or two I figure they'll survive! :p
 
Thanks. That's what I thought. I guess I'll just have to lighten up on what my little guy drinks on vacation as long as he gets his milk at bfast and dinner ;)

Thanks,
Deb
