For adults, the kakigori and the fruit flavours come with SKYY vodka at $15.50, and the piña colada with coconut rum at $13.50. Beer is $9.75 to $10.50. Prices from Disney's menu, 13 September 2026.

Allergies and dietary needs
The kakigori contains sweetened condensed milk; the fruit-syrup shaved ices do not list dairy. Ask at the window about allergies.
