Welcome back, friends! In case you’re new here, I’m JP, and I don’t drink alcohol. But that doesn’t mean I always want to drink water or soda when my friends are getting fun cocktails, so I’m on a mission to try as many mocktails around Disney World as I can.
In my last episode, I headed to Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar in Disney Springs and tried The Diving Bell. While I didn’t mind it, it was essentially a flavored lemonade, as many mocktails are. This time I headed to Wolfgang Puck Bar & Grill in Disney Springs with some friends and figured it was the perfect time to grab a new drink!
Wolfgang Puck’s is open for brunch, lunch, and dinner, and my friends and I decided to head there for brunch to get a great mix of their breakfast and lunch options since we were evenly split on who preferred which meal.
There are four different mocktails on the brunch drink menu here:
- Ginger-Lime Iced Tea
- Passionfruit Smash
- Cherry Limeade
- Flavored Lemonade (Mango, Raspberry, Strawberry)
Since I’m not personally a fan of cherry or ginger, and I wanted something a little more exciting than Flavored Lemonade (which, hang on, can we talk about how the Flavored Lemonade is one of the two most expensive mocktails? What’s that about?), I decided to go with the Passionfruit Smash.
Before trying the mocktail, I was a little nervous since I didn’t remember ever having passionfruit before, but I really enjoyed it! It was very sweet but with a hint of tartness due to the tropical flavors, and I truly felt I was drinking a much fancier drink instead of something less exciting than a cocktail. While I’ve never had a cocktail before when I said that it tasted like what I felt a cocktail would just without the alcohol, a friend of mine at the table who HAS had cocktails before told me she wholeheartedly agreed.
While I think this drink is great for adults who don’t drink or don’t want to drink and older teens, I do feel that there might be too many flavors going on, and it’s a little too strong for many younger kids. I’d say anyone under the age of 13 who typically doesn’t enjoy more adventurous drinks and flavors may want to stick with the Flavored Lemonades on the menu.
I’ll also mention here that I grabbed the Chicken and Waffles to eat, and while it was more expensive than I would have liked at $33, it was INCREDIBLE. The maple honey butter that glazed the chicken was divine, and the blueberry compote added an additional natural sweetness that I adored. Overall, I highly recommend it, even if the price tag scares you. I’ve been craving it for WEEKS now!
I’ll be continuing to try out tons of mocktails in the parks throughout the new year, so stay tuned to AllEars!

Which mocktail would you have chosen? Tell me in the comments!
Good article. I read the last one too & eagerly waiting the rest of this series. This is an article that speaks to me as a non drinker and gets bored of the usual alcohol free options.
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you enjoy the series. I’ll be back in the parks more this year and can’t wait to try more and tell readers all about them!
