Disney4me Posted November 9, 2019 Report Share Posted November 9, 2019 What’s this? What’s this? There’s Christmas everywhere! Christmas Tree in Magic Kingdom Disney World has been going all out with the holiday decorations in the parks. Hollywood Studios has officially launched its holiday extravaganza, and Magic Kingdom has Main Street decked out with wreaths, garlands, and the stunning Christmas tree. And, now Disney Springs is lookin’ merry and bright with their very own Christmas event! The Christmas Tree Trail has returned with snacks, snoap, photo-ops, music, and THEMED TREES! Now through January 5th, 2020, you can travel through the forest of ornaments and lights from 11 AM until 11 PM. (Or, if you’re feeling really festive, you can come back 2 times in the same day!) As opposed to the 27 trees from last year, this year’s trail features 23 trees inspired by Disney characters, attractions, and films. And, on top of that, there are NEW snack stands and merch for 2019! (Yeah, we’ll definitely be grabbing some ‘nog as we stop and look at all the decorations!) Are you ready for trees, treats, and and tinsel? Then, Giddy-up, giddy-up, giddy-up, let’s goooo see everything the Christmas Tree Trail in Disney Springs has for the holiday season! Christmas Tree Trail Snacks Obviously, before doing anything, we had to check out the snacks! (Do you even know us?? ;D) New for this year, the treat stands are based on the holiday movie coming to Disney+, Noelle! The story revolves around Santa’s kids as they struggle to maintain the job of transporting gifts around the world as their dad retires. If that isn’t fun enough, the food and drinks inspired by the film will put you in the ho-ho-holiday spirit!! Noelle Kringle’s Café is the stop for treats this year, featuring… Noelle Kringle’s Café …the Fall Spice Cotton Candy, which is flavored with hints of cinnamon and nutmeg! It will alternate with another gourmet cotton candy called Winter Frost, which tastes like peppermint. Fall Spice Cotton Candy Also on the menu, Mrs. Claus’ Churro Bites come with a Peppermint Chocolate Dipping Sauce. The churros are crunchy and delicious, but the sauce is AH-MAZING!! The peppermint and chocolate flavors are blended beautifully, and it reminds us of peppermint hot chocolate! Mrs. Claus’ Churro Bites Close by, the Eggnoggery features multiple themed drinks for the Christmas Treat Trail, including the Thank Garland Frozen Hot Chocolate, Fireside Cider, and more! Eggnoggery While we were there, we decided to try the Frozen Eggnog, which usually comes with Captain Morgan. However, we got the non-alcoholic version that isn’t on the menu! If you love eggnog, this frozen slush is the PERFECT holiday treat! Frozen Eggnoggery We also took a sip of the Claus-mo, made with Absolut Citron vodka, cointreau, and cranberry juice. While the drink itself is fruity and refreshing, we especially love the shimmery appearance that makes it look like Christmas in a glass. Clause-Mo Stay tuned for more of our food reviews from the Christmas Tree Trail! Christmas Tree Trail Merch While we were snacking and sipping away, we spotted the sign leading us towards the event’s merch! Shopping spree, anyone? Merch Sign All the merchandise is located at the Elforium, which is giving the Emporium in Magic Kingdom a run for its money (and merch).
