Okay, we’ll admit it, we LOVE POG juice. If you haven’t this wonderful concoction of passionfruit, orange, and guava fruit juices, you are missing out.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
For example, if you have breakfast in a few places in Disney World, you can get POG juice in nearly unlimited amounts. But you can also find POG-flavored treats throughout Disney World. We’ve had everything from POG cupcakes to POG gelato to a POG-flavored eclair. ALL the POG. So when we found out you could get POG Juice Macarons from Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, we hopped on the Monorail and headed on over!
If you head on over to Kona Island at the Polynesian, you can order a box of five POG Juice Macarons for $7.99. But wait, there’s more! Not only are these POG Juice-flavored, but they are also plant-based, meaning they don’t have any dairy or eggs in them. Okay, that makes us a little skeptical because how could you POSSIBLY make a good macaron without eggs and dairy? Well, Disney figured it out!
Five perfect macarons
In fact, it’s rather remarkable Disney figured out how to get an authentic meringue-like texture with these macarons without egg and dairy. Yes, Disney nailed it. HOWEVER, with that being said, these tasted more like coconut to us, than POG-flavored, which could have something to do with what was used to replace the egg and dairy in the recipe. But overall, they’re still delicious.
Not very Pog flavored, though
These are a great choice for those with plant-based diets who’ve wanted to try macarons and haven’t been able to. We’d love to see these rotate out at Kona Island with different flavors throughout the year (hint, hint, Disney).

So, if you’re looking for a solid macaron, you might want to head on over to the Polynesian to grab a box of these. You don’t even have to share them if you don’t want to!

Real Quick. I think POG is passion fruit, Orange and Guava. Hence the name POG. Mango would probably be tasty too but nothing is as good as POG. We read your articles, every word, everyday. Thank you for sharing all of the excellent info. Mahalo
These look delicious! Are they gluten-free?
Hi Pamela! Thanks for pointing that out. You are absolutely correct. I went in and updated the article. Our apologies!
Was there a DFB newsletter on 9/10/24? I did not receive it. Thanks.
Hi Diana! Sometimes the newsletter goes to junk/spam or if you’re using gmail, it could be hiding in the Promotions tab.
Thanks Gigi,
I did check those to no avail, but I did get today’s.
Went by there today and the CM had no idea what I was talking about. This is the 2nd floor coffee stand, Kona Island, right? I checked the gift shops, too. Not sure if I just got a new CM or if these were just temporary.
