Today we’ll chat about some menu updates, an adorable new cupcake, and everything else we found on our latest park walk. Let’s get started.

Animal Kingdom Food Update

Africa

At Africa’s Dawa Bar, we noticed a new specialty drink called Harambe Iced Tea. This drink consists of Don Q Rum, Snow Leopard Vodka, New Amsterdam Gin, Vanderhum Orange Liqueur, and orange juice, topped with Sprite.

You can try the Harambe Iced Tea for $13.58!

Asia

When we stopped by Yak & Yeti Local Foods Cafe, we saw that Sweet and Sour Tempura Shrimp has replaced the Korean BBQ Rib Tips on the printed menu, but the Rib Tips are still being offered as a Chef’s Specialty.

The Sweet and Sour Tempura Shrimp was previously a Chef’s Specialty item before officially being officially added to the printed menu.

DinoLand U.S.A.

We found a few menu updates over at DinoLand’s Restaurantosaurus Lounge as well. Sweet and Spicy Mixed Nuts are no longer on the menu, and Tiger Lager has replaced the Safari Lager.

In Creature Comforts, we spotted a new and totally adorable Zebra Cupcake!

Zebra Cupcake

This cupcake features marbled yellow cakewhite frosting, and decorative drizzles of black frosting. Unfortunately, this cutie didn’t stay cute for very long because its features started melting really quickly. 🙁

Despite its melted appearance, the Zebra Cupcake was still super yummy! You can grab it from either Creature Comforts or Restaurantosaurus for $5.99 or a Disney Dining Plan snack credit.

Discovery Island

The merchandise cart between Flame Tree Barbecue and The Feeding Ground had a new-to-us UP-inspired Grape Soda tank for $34.99.

It reminded us a bit of the Grape Soda shirt we spotted at the same merchandise cart a few weeks ago — you can take a look at it here!

Speaking of UP, Kevin was out and about during our visit and we had to snap a quick photo of him before we left! (He’s just adorable, isn’t he?)
