Dry Ice Drinks — Complete with Special Effects! — at Incredible Tomorrow Expo
An Incredible Summer kicked off all over Disney World at the end of May, and the Incredible Tomorrowland Expo in Magic Kingdom is still going strong as part of the event!
We tried all the specialty snacks available throughout Tomorrowland for the occasion. But two items were delayed upon the opening, so we’re back at Cool Ship to try Violet’s Force Field Punch and Dash’s Super Lemonade!
As you can see, these drinks come complete with bubbling and smoke effects! But first, the basics: Violet’s Force Field Punch is made of VitaminWater in Acai-Blueberry-Pomegranate with blood orange and blueberry boba balls (popping pearls).
And Dash’s Super Lemonade is Lemonade with Hawaiian Island a blueberry boba balls.
But the main things everyone is interested in upon seeing the menu are the bubbling and smoke effects, which come by way of dry ice at the bottom of a special glass.
We also encountered this effect recently at Lamplight Lounge on Pixar Pier in Disney California Adventure. And the truth is that still pictures can’t do too much in this instance, so you’ll be better off checking out the full effect on Instagram.
It’s really fun… but here’s the rest of the story. Both drinks tasted fine — fruity, cool, and refreshing as you’d expect.
But at $6.99 a pop, they’re expensive for what you actually get in terms of a drinking beverage.
Like, these are gone after a good couple of sips, and you have to keep in mind that a portion of the special glasses is blocked off by a barrier to keep the dry ice on the bottom to give the special effect.
And a couple of other things to note: first, the menu pictures show a whole bunch-a boba balls. In reality? There were about six.
And second, Cool Ship didn’t have large enough straws for them, so they’re kind of stuck at the end of the drink.
Cute idea. But is it worth it? I don’t really think so. My favorite Incredible Tomorrowland Expo snack remains the Super Stretchy Burger at Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe… and you can see it stretch in our DFB YouTube Video below!
