We’re counting down to a new year with oodles of limited-time treats!
New Year’s Eve in Disney World is a little different this year. The theme parks are closing before midnight and guests are encouraged to celebrate from their resort. Plus, Disney has been releasing a few special treats! So far, we tried the surprisingly tasty Animal Kingdom 2021 cupcake and a surprisingly underwhelming Strawberry Champagne cupcake. (Two of them actually!) We found ANOTHER surprise New Year’s Eve treat today at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort.
The Polynesian had a helpful board listing all the ways guests can get in the NYE mood tonight. We noticed that Pineapple Lanai is serving a special Raspberry Dole Whip today!
Naturally, we HAD to get it because a) it looks gorgeous and b) DOLE WHIP. The Raspberry Rosa Regale Dole Whip Float is made with raspberry soft-serve, Rosa Regale Sparkling Wine, and garnished with dried raspberries, and rose petals.
The presentation did NOT disappoint. Look at this beauty! We love the raspberry and rose complimentary colors.
Ok, here’s the deal. If you’re not a fan of Dole Whips, this treat might just convert you. This Dole Whip Float was an absolute HIT for us. And let’s be real, we’ve eaten A LOT of Dole Whips. Like. A lot of them. This float was the perfect boozy blend of sparkling wine and Dole Whip. The wine cut the Dole Whip so it wasn’t overly sweet.
The sweetness of a Dole Whip can be a turn-off for some and the alcohol dulled the sugar down a bit. The tartness from the raspberry also tasted super refreshing. We think raspberry fans will love this the most, but pretty much anyone over 21 should give it a try.

Our biggest complaint? We wanted more. Alright, you might not like it if you don’t enjoy sparkling red wine and raspberries. (Or if you don’t have tastebuds.) 2020 has been a wild ride, but this treat finished our year strong! The special limited-time treat is $15.
