You don’t need a ticket to see some of Disney World’s best holiday displays or try some festive treats!
At Disney’s Beach Club, you can check out the GIANT gingerbread carousel display, and afterward, you can head to Beaches & Cream Soda Shop for a returning holiday treat!
The Holiday Cookie-Butter Shake is BACK at Beaches & Cream in Disney’s Beach Club! This is a cookie butter-flavored milkshake drizzled in red and green caramel and topped with a red velvet Christmas Tree Cupcake for $15.
Note that we spoke to a Cast Member who told us that if you order this shake right now, you’ll actually get a gingerbread shake rather than a cookie butter shake, but the cookie butter should be available as of December 2nd.
The holiday shake is back at Beaches & Cream! Last year, we tried it as a cookie-butter shake, but right now it’s gingerbread! A cast member told us that the cookie-butter flavor should return Dec. 2! pic.twitter.com/iSWP2txHtt

It looks very similar to the Cookie-Butter Shake we tried last year, and it was absolutely delicious again, even with the gingerbread flavors! Just keep in mind that this is an incredibly sweet treat, and we definitely tasted the caramel drizzle that paired nicely with the gingerbread flavor.
The cupcake topper was moist with a great chocolate flavor, and the icing was nice and light too. The chocolate ears were a nice touch and the shortbread cookie star was delicious!
If you want to try the modified gingerbread version of this shake make sure you head to Beaches & Cream before December 2nd, and if you want the cookie butter version you might want to wait to place your order until verifying with a Cast Member that the original flavor is back.
