REVIEW: Should You SKIP Starbucks for This New EPCOT Festival Addition?
It’s time to grab a holiday coffee at Joffrey’s Coffee and Tea in EPCOT!
The 2024 EPCOT Festival of the Holidays has officially begun, and there is a lot to offer. There are plenty of food booths with tasty items, merchandise items to grab (of course), and even concerts to watch. But don’t let it overwhelm you. We’ve got you covered with everything you need to know. And now we’re heading to one spot in particular — the Joffrey’s kiosks — to give you the FULL scoop! Is it worth a try? Let’s find out!
Menu
This year, Joffrey’s is serving up a Merry Mint Cookie Latte, which is described as a festive blend of espresso, toasted marshmallow syrup, peppermint syrup, dark chocolate sauce, and milk topped with peppermint whipped cream and chocolate cookie crumbs.
It’s a new coffee drink for this year and can be ordered boozy or non-boozy.
Drinks
So we had to try the new drink. The Merry Mint Cookie Latte doesn’t have a strong mint flavor — in fact, you can barely taste it. In fact, this was mild enough in this drink that even non-coffee drinkers might appreciate it.
That said, though, we didn’t really find anything festive about this drink because the flavors are so mild. It tasted a lot like a regular latte. It’s not a BAD drink per se, but it’s not anything to go out of your way for either when there are other more holiday-ish drinks available at the festival. If you’ve already got a tried-and-true Starbucks holiday drink order, you might want to stick with that instead.

OVERALL
If you’re looking for a fun, festive drink, this probably isn’t it. It’s just okay, but there are so many other –and better — drink choices at the festival that you might just want to skip this one for now.
