Disney4me Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 We’re back again with another update of What’s New in Disney’s Animal Kingdom! Greetings from the Tree of Life! During our most recent visit to Animal Kingdom, we found some cute new merch, refreshing cold treats, and an unexpected show closure! We’re roaring to go, so let’s get started! Animal Kingdom Food Update Africa First on our trek, we spotted the return of a popular frozen treat OUTSIDE the Harambe Market! Shaved Ice Cart is BACK outside Harambe Market! That’s right — the Shaved Ice Cart has moved back from its previous location inside the Harambe Market to just outside the village. Not to worry though — the offerings remain the same! Asante Slush This is where you can nab your Asante Slush! The refreshing tribute to The Lion King has been around for a while now and is still available in both non-alcoholic and spiked versions! Asante Slush We prefer ours with Snow Leopard Vodka, but both have a wonderfully fruity watermelon and mango flavor! Asia Calling all matcha maniacs! In Asia, we spotted the Frozen Green Tea Matcha at the Royal Anandapur Tea Company cart! Frozen Green Tea Matcha This frosty 16-ounce beverage is $5.69 (or a Disney Dining Plan snack credit) and may only be around for a limited time, so snag yours today if you’re a fan of the green stuff! Read our full review of the Frozen Green Tea Matcha here! Animal Kingdom Construction Update Also in Asia, we noticed the UP! A Great Bird Adventure show has unexpectedly closed and the sign shows no posted performance times. UP! A Great Bird Adventure Sign Although we don’t have an expected date for when the show will re-open, we hope the birds will be returning soon! UP! A Great Bird Adventure Blocked by Bushes Animal Kingdom Merchandise Update Discovery Island Next, we scoped out all the new merchandise over at Riverside Depot! Intricately carved totems at Riverside Depot We set our sights on an adorable new Mulan Pop-Up Book Pin! New Mulan Pop-Up Book Pin! The pin costs $17.99 and is styled after a classic pop-up book! We love how the hinged door opens to reveal an image of Mulan looking FIERCE with a quote on the inside cover! We also spotted two new Lion King-themed phone cases! This sepia-color Hakuna Matata version… Front of New Lion King Phone Case Back of the New Lion King Phone Case …and a menacing-looking Scar case! Front of New Scar Phone Case Back of New Scar Phone Case Both are available for $34.99.
