The Unofficial Disney Parks Drink Recipe Book - (Unofficial Cookbook) by Ashley Craft (Hardcover)

These are cafe recipes with premade ingrredients. Coffee, purchased flavored creamer and ice, that isn't a recipe to me. That's a normal cup of coffee. For those who really cook and really follow recipes, this isn't it. Huge disappointment.

Bought as a gift for friends who are getting married in Disney. They loved it! So many cool recipes and pictures.

I absolutely love this drink recipe book! I have gone to the parks many times and have had drinks that I wish I could find the recipe for. This book has all of the popular drink recipes and the ones that I have made taste exactly like the parks!

Slushies, mocktails, coffee drinks, and all manner of lemonades! Yum. You don't need to be a fan of Walt Disney or his parks to enjoy these fun, sweet, colorful drinks. For those who just like mixing up interesting libations, this book is for us. Interesting facts about the different parks' histories and movie tid-bits alternate between the recipes, and made for interesting reading. Handy dandy easy to follow instructions, pleasing photos, and a good reference section, make Ashley Craft's Unofficial Disney Parks Drink Recipe Book: From LeFou's Brew to the Jedi Mind Trick, 100+ Magical Disney-Inspired Drinks a great addition to any family's home.

Of the many iconic things about Disney Parks, drinks and cocktails are some of my favorite things to explore. To me, there is nothing better than relaxing in a themed Disney space with a drink (Trader Sam's to be specific) after a long day at the Parks. So imagine my delight in being able to review The Unofficial Disney Parks Drink Recipe Book, releasing October 2021 from Adams Media! Disney Parks Drink Recipe Book starts off with a bit of history of alcohol in the Disney Parks. In an effort to keep out the "rowdy element," Walt Disney didn't allow Disneyland to sell alcohol. For sixty-four years this rule was in place until Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge opened. Oga's Cantina is the one place that sells alcohol in Disneyland (other than Club 33.) The book also gives a quick summary of some of the items you will need access to in order to craft the many drinks in the cookbook. Items like a blender, cocktail shaker, candy molds and various syrups. The syrup section has the recipes to create agave, black raspberry, hibiscus, ginger, mint syrups including a basic simple syrup recipe. The Unofficial Disney Parks Drink Recipe Book has a good mix of cocktails, juice recipes, slushies, shakes (including those from Black Tap Craft Burgers & Shakes), smoothies and includes fun tidbits like how Epcot's Jungle Juice is a basic POG (passion fruit, orange and guava) concoction. I was happy to see the recipe for the Uh Oa! and the description of how much it is an experience in addition to being a drink! Photos can make or break a cookbook and the photos from The Unofficial Disney Parks Drink Recipe Book are gorgeous! There are several ideas on how to dress drinks up with Disney flare and there is a wide range of cups and mugs shown for styling options. The Unofficial Disney Parks Drink Recipe Book also comes with a Disney Parks map that shows where the drink locations are which can be really handy for those that go to the Parks often! The Unofficial Disney Parks Drink Recipe Book is a great Christmas gift or gift for any Disney foodie fan who likes to recreate Disney recipes at home.

If you love Disney Theme Parks drinks, this is the cookbook for you! It has a huge variety of drink recipes. The recipes are simple to follow and the pictures of some of the drinks are gorgeous. I liked how there was also some background information before each drink recipe as well. Some of the recipes call for an ice cream machine, which I do not own, so that was a little disappointing. Overall, it’s a splendid little cookbook. Thanks to Netgalley and the Publisher for a copy of the arc in return for an honest review.

Ashley Craft, author of The Unofficial Disney Parks Cookbook has worked her magic again with The Unofficial Disney Parks Drink Recipe Book. Now you can curl up in a comfortable chair and transport yourself to all things Disney with the taste of the drink in your hand. The first part is a history of “Drinking around Disney World” Did you know that Walt Disney did not want alcohol served in his park and that ban held for 64 years until alcoholic drinks were first served in Epcot? This section also lists the essential equipment you’ll need for these recipes and tells how to concoct an assortment of simple syrups. Then come the drink recipes. Accompanied by gorgeous, mouth-watering photographs, they are organized by park sections and drink categories. You’ll find lemonades, slushes, mocktails and cocktails, coffee drinks and more. My favorites are Cotton Candy Lemonade, Elf Nog, Diving Bell (with Mickey ears made of lemon slices) but one drink stands out. Perfect for children of all ages, My Bugs! My Bugs! Is garnished with gummy worms which appear to be crawling out of the electric coral drink! Recipes from other Disney Parks are included: Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom and California Adventure. There are maps showing where the individual drinks are served The Unofficial Disney Parks Drink Recipe Book is just delicious. Grab a glass and enjoy! 5 stars. Thank you to NetGalley, Adams Media and Ashley Craft for this ARC.

I admit I never reviewed a recipe book and it was great fun! I live near Disney World and now I know how to mix some of my favorite drinks. Love that Ashley tells you how to make the various syrup is right in that beginning of the book. Also the background history was interesting and not long winded. One does want to learn how to mixed the drinks, right! Now the problem is which one to try after I make the Dole whip, The pictures are a great visual aid, but maybe a few more would nice. Thank you NetGalley for this ARC. I am voluntarily posting an honest review after reading an Advance Reader Copy of this story.

The Unofficial Disney Parks Drink Recipe Book by Ashley Craft is the book we have been waiting for! I love everything about it. So many recipes for every drink you could want. Coffees, iced drinks, and cocktails galore! If I had to say anything negative it would be that I wish there were more pictures. This is a great guide to making lots of your favorite Disney drinks when you can’t be at the parks. Thank you to NetGalley and Adams Media for the opportunity to read this book for an honest review.
