As the temperatures start to rise for the summer season at Walt Disney World, thirsty guests go in search for ways to cool down in the Parks. Lucky for them the Disney beverage program offers up some fantastic frozen drinks to tempt taste buds on even the hottest of days. For your snacking delight we've gathered together a list of the Top Five Frozen Beverages you can find at the Magic Kingdom.
A fan favorite from Downtown Disney, our #5 fun frozen beverage can now be found in the Magic Kingdom as well! Goofy's Glaciers are icy slushy drinks that come in three great flavors. You can find strawberry, blue raspberry, and lemonade, now at Storybook Circus' Big Top Treats within the New Fantasyland.
Coming in at #4 is the Root Beer Float. Is it a snack or a drink? I don't think it matters when it tastes so good. You can find creamy vanilla soft serve ice cream served up with ice cold Bar's Root Beer all over the Park. A traditional taste of Americana you can fins a float at the Sunshine Tree Terrace in Adventureland, Sleepy Hollow Refreshments in Liberty Square, Aloha Isle in Adventureland, Storybook Treats in Fantasyland, and Main Street Ice Cream Parlor just to name a few.
Patriotic pride has never tasted so delicious as our #3 top treat is the Liberty Swirl Slush. This combination of Fanta Blue Raspberry and Cherry slush is layered together in your cup for a tasty display. This unique treat will help you beat the heat and can only be found at Sleepy Hollow Refreshments in Liberty Square.
Tart and refreshing at #2 quench your thirst with a Frozen Lemonade in regular or raspberry flavors. These slushy delights are sure to hit the spot and can be found at Cheshire Cafe and Friar's Nook in Fantasyland, Westward Ho Refreshments in Frontierland, Sunshine Tree Terrace in Adventureland.
And the #1 frozen drink at the Magic Kingdom is the Dole Whip Float. For a classic Disney flavor with a fan following of its own, try the original luscious pineapple Dole Whip floating atop sweet tangy pineapple juice. No worries if you don't like pineapple, you can also order it in vanilla or orange with your choice of sodas. This low fat, dairy-free treat is a must do for many a Disney fan and can only be found at Aloha Isle in Adventureland.
All of these frozen delights cost between $3.69 and $4.99 each, and if you're on the Disney Dining Plan you can pick one up for a single snack credit. I gathered together this list of delicious drinks from the new 2013 DFB Mini-Guide to Magic Kingdom Snacks. With 119 pages of tasty Magic Kingdom treats, where to find them and how much they cost, it's a fabulous resource for you vacation to keep all the tasty treats in the Park right at your fingertips.

What is the dole whip float made out of that is dairy free?
Sorry , I'm new to the dole whip float, is it soy or rice based?

Hi StephanieLee!
I wish that I could tell you that Dole Whip is based on some wonderful natural product that makes it "Non-Dairy" but that's not quite the case. Dole Whip contains "sodium caseinate is a protein derived from milk, but so altered that the FDA no longer considers it dairy."
Check out the website at this link that helps to explain what exactly Dole Whip is made of. LoL... I kinda wish I hadn't looked :-)

We are a split household here. My wife loves pineapple dole whips and I love root beers floats. Although, I did try a frozen cherry cola in Tomorrow Land which was really good.

Dole whip is the best. I never visit Disney without getting one, either just the whip or the float. As long as you like pineapple you will like it.
