New Coffees to Celebrate Fall at Walt Disney World
It is no real secret that I love anything Pumpkin flavoured so you can imagine that Fall is easily my favourite season as an avid coffee drinker. Disney know that Pumpkin Spiced Lattes at Starbucks are incredibly popular so have introduced new flavours at Joffrey coffee kiosks throughout Walt Disney World.
- Pumpkin Pie Latte
- Rich espresso blended with creamy milk and pumpkin pie flavouring.
- Harvest Latte
- Rich espresso blended with creamy milk and caramel sauce with green apple syrup topped with whipped cream.
- Pumpkin Pie Chai
- Creamy chai and flavoured with pumpkin pie syrup
Dan I discuss these awesome sounding flavours in this segment of the podcast.

Ryan has been attending theme parks since as long as he can remember and his first proper memory comes from when he was just three years old sitting in Main Street USA drinking a Nesquik milkshake from a carton while the piano was being played outside Casey’s Corner.
