Are you excited that it’s almost 2023? Do you have any big New Year’s plans? Well, if you happen to be at Disney World, you’re in luck — a ton of NEW snacks JUST TO CELEBRATE the New Year are coming to the resort!
We’re trying out ALL of these new snacks, too — which is why we’re heading over to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort to dive into a new Dole Whip float seriously, will we EVER say “no” to anything Dole Whip in Disney World? NEVER!).
So come with us to Pineapple Lanai to try the New Year’s Float. It’s made with DOLE Whip Float with passionfruit, orange, and guava juice topped with a 2023 white chocolate medallion, popping candy, boba balls, and a cocktail umbrella. Yep, this is a POG juice Dole Whip float. Like how can you go wrong?
This is very similar to the New Year’s Float we had here in 2021. (It just doesn’t have the pineapple bubbles this go around.) For the record, we LOVED that one SO MUCH. So how does this year’s float compare?
Our favorite part was far and away the POG juice base! It’s one of (in our opinion) the best beverages you can get in Disney World, so adding it to Dole Whip only makes it better. The pineapple Dole Whip wasn’t anything extra special, but if you love the classic treat, the flavors will be spot-on for you.
The boba was also pineapple flavored, and we really liked them but wish that they would serve this with a wider straw so you can slurp them up. They were fairly challenging to scoop out with a spoon. The popping candy (Pop Rocks essentially) add a fun textural element, but it would’ve been interesting to have more of them.
Basically, this is a pineapple lover’s dream! If you want something a little more unique and outside-the-box as far as Dole Whip floats go, this might not be for you, but it’s a fun treat to try in the next few days.
Look what it is! The New Year’s Float can be found at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort – it’s a DOLE Whip float with passion fruit, orange, and guava juice – topped with a white chocolate medallion, popping candy and boba balls for $6.49! ⛱️ pic.twitter.com/Eun2F47SYh
