Many Disney visitors are familiar with a brand that can be found several places around property: Joffrey’s Coffee & Tea Company. We have been known to regularly enjoy coffees, teas, and frozen drinks while visiting the parks and Joffrey’s has become a familiar brand. As part of Epcot’s International Food & Wine Festival, Joffrey’s has created several specialty beverages only available during this time at Epcot. Each Joffrey’s location in the park offers a featured drink and we have taken a trip around the world to sample these new creations. Read on for our review of these limited edition recipes…

This Year’s Special Beverage Offerings
1. Near Mission: SPACE – COCOA COLD BREW $6.39
Kona Mocha topped with Whipped Cream and drizzled with Chocolate.
(Also available with Jameson Cold Brew Whiskey for $12.99)
The Kona Mocha is one of Andrew’s go-to drinks being a nice frozen coffee drink. The Cocoa Cold Brew takes it up a notch with more chocolate! We also added the alcohol shot which made this drink so yummy. It was a great balance of coffee and chocolate, and being frozen was perfect for a hot September day. The whipped cream and cookie were a nice touch too.
2. Near Disney Traders – DOUBLE TROUBLE CHAI $6.39
Tantalizing Iced Chai with a Single Shot of Espresso topped with Whipped Cream and Cinnamon.
(Also available with Jameson Cold Brew Whiskey for $12.99)
Julie loved this drink with a unique twist featuring both chai tea and coffee. Being iced we found it the perfect combo of being cold and refreshing but also the chai spice made it feel like a perfect fall drink. The whipped cream and cookie were a nice touch, but it didn’t feel as dessert like as the Cocoa Cold Brew.
3. Near Canada – TROPICAL TEA BREEZE $6.39
Iced Tea and Frozen Lemon with a splash of Coconut Syrup.
(Also available with Tito’s Vodka for $12.99)
Now this drink was perfect to add to a day drinking around the world. We added the vodka option which reminded us of a long island ice tea but with a tropical twist. The frozen lemonade and coconut flavor added a lot to this drink and we could certainly enjoy several on a hot day.
4. The American Adventure – CINNAMON CHAI $6.39
Refreshing Iced Chai Tea Latte topped with whipped cream and cinnamon.
(Also available with Cinnamon Whiskey for $12.99)
Another chai based drink (and one Andrew really loved). Being more milk based with lots of cinnamon it reminded us of a liquid milkshake. While the chai flavor was there this was sweeter and more dessert like too. Loved the addition of whipped cream and the cookie.
5. Available at All Booths – TART & TANGY $6.39
An exotic blend of refreshing ice tea, frozen lemonade, and mandarin syrup.
(Also available with Tito’s Vodka for $12.99)
This seasonal pick was similar to the Tropical tea above but instead of coconut has a citrus twist. We tried this one with vodka as well and it was refreshing. We didn’t like it quite as much as the Tropical version as the mandarin wasn’t as strong as the coconut. But still a good refreshing drink on a hot day.
Final Thoughts
There are so many food & beverage options to try at Epcot this time of year, it was nice to learn about these. As fun as it is to get a little 5 oz beer pour here and there sometimes a larger iced drink or a frozen coffee really hits the spot during the hot transition to Florida Fall. We liked being able to try the options ranging from iced and tropical to spiced flavors perfect for Fall. We highly recommend trying out a Joffrey’s drink on your next visit to Epcot. And make sure to try these particular ones before they disappear after November 20th! (Thank you Joffrey’s for letting us sample these delicious drinks!)
