 Oh, summer. It sounds good right now after what we just experienced, doesn't it? Grilling out lawns being mowed and pools opening. These are some of the things we expect with summer. Garden Festival, part two. Actually, I was here for opening day and I decided that when I come back out and eat and drink some things that I didn't do the first time, which would make it a little bit more fun. Anywho, let's go do this. One thing I didn't do last time in the Flower and Garden Opening Day video was actually explore all the different alcoholic beverages that they had. So that's what I'm going to try to focus on today. And I'm going to try the 81 Bay Brewing Apricot with Maple Syrup beer. That sounds pretty interesting. And here it is. I'm excited because I don't like apricot, but I'm going to see if I like this. Regardless, I will drink it. Oh boy. Oh wow, that's delicious. I actually really like it. I was a little shocked. It doesn't taste like anything like apricot. I could taste the maple more than the apricot. So it's kind of like a maple apricot beer. Huh. Honestly, very shocked at how delicious this is. It was $5 and it's, I mean, a regular like festival size beer, but it's interesting to try something different. I mean, that is different. Apricot and Maple. And one thing I also wanted to check out were these nifty shirts. My friend Wayne from the UK actually messaged me and wants one of these shirts. So I said I'll check and see if they have any in his size. And he's seen Josh wearing it. I'm a little jealous because I really like them too. The fabric's amazing. We're going to come back and see if Wayne actually wants the shirt, but I'm looking for my friend. And hopefully she's at the sister's floss of getting something good to eat. There she is. I'm here and I got, I told you I was going to get a flowery drink today. That's the one? That is one of the ones. Oh. It's a wine slushie. I like it. Instead of eating on a trash can, we found this beautiful box. It's like an epic box here. Now this is like ultimate for Epcot festivals. Look at it. How beautiful it is. We have fried, fried green tomatoes. And then... The tuna tataki bowl. The tuna tataki. Yes. And a wine slushie. Yeah. I'm going to get the wine slushie. Yeah. So this is my first time trying fried green tomatoes. What do you think they look? They look pretty delicious. They do look delicious. Yeah. Yeah. I just don't know if I'll like them. I'm going to find out. All right. Fried green tomatoes. One bite, everyone knows the rules. Oh, they're delicious. Yeah. Yeah. And now... Cheers. The wine slushie? Yes. What is this? Orange wine? Yes. I'm excited. Yes. So I have to say this is absolutely delicious. I really, really like it. It's like an orange creamsicle and I'm not a big wine drinker. It doesn't taste anything like wine. So if you don't like wine, don't be afraid to try to get this drink because it literally just tastes like deliciousness. It doesn't even taste alcoholic actually. No, it doesn't taste like alcohol. No alcohol almost. But I don't know. I'm sure there's something in it. I had to take a break from my snack time snacks to run back and get that shirt from my buddy because they actually were selling out very quickly. So we really knocked out two stands there very quickly. And now we're going to make our way a little bit more. Obviously I'm with Jackie, super enthused, and we're probably going to meet up with some other friends. Who knows? I'm just excited to be here. I am. And we're walking past what kind of show this is like a festival market. And they actually have testers for some handy tizers. Handy tizer. I like that. It's 100% natural. This one's orange lemon. Yeah. I got lavender. Oh. Let's wear ourselves. Yes. No, I don't think it's a spray. I think it's sanitizer. No, this says spritz to cool and refresh. What? I'm going to cool it off. Oh, mine's to clean my skin. I want that. Oh. Oh, that smells nice. One thing that's really important is that you get a good mixture of drinks, like a good variety. So I first started with the maple beer, and then I got the wine martini. And now we are actually in the French pavilion. And I'm thinking about getting the rose, frozen slushie. Look at that. Grey goose, orange, and then also white and red cranberry juice, 1175. So I bet you it's probably very delicious. Here it is, the rose slushie made with grey goose. Wow. This is like really fancy. So I have to say, comparing this to the wine slushie, this one is a lot colder. And the other one was more frothy. This one I like a lot though. I just don't know which one I would prefer. You know, I don't like, I mean, I do like them, but it's not like the type of drink that I would normally get. This is still very delicious. So I have to say, wow. Also, I want to point out, Remy is actually here. And now I haven't shown this before because this is my first time seeing it. But look at that. And they actually give you a whole bunch of different recipes down here. I like that. That's really awesome. Also, I want to suggest that if you do stop and get this rose slushie, it is not a walking and drinking drink actually. Look at that. Very, very dangerous. Now we're going to move along on our journey. And this is basically turning into basically drinks at Flower and Garden. And we're going to stop at the Florida Fresh Stand because they have a watermelon and cucumber slushie made with gin, which sounds pretty amazing. Right here it is, the watermelon cucumber slushie with gin. I'm very excited. I like watermelon and I kind of like cucumber, but I love gin. And take a look at that. Actually comes with a little watermelon. So what we're going to have to do is probably soak the watermelon and then eat it. That sounds like a good idea, doesn't it? Oh wow. Dip, right? So we're going to dip the watermelon into the slushie and kind of get like a spiked fruit. It sounds amazing, doesn't it? Yeah. You're spiking it. Oh, I'm holding it. Hold it in and let it absorb. Yep, take in all that gin. And then you're ready? Okay, ready. Cheers. Hold thing at once or like one at a time. Okay. So obviously just eating the watermelon dip inside the slushie was amazing, but the actual slushie itself is still delicious. It's a little bit watery because it's very hot here in Florida, but I would definitely rank this as my favorite drink so far. It beats the wine slushie at Citrus Blossom. Wow. So just to recap a little bit, we started off. We had the apricot maple beer and then we decided to get the wine slushie that tasted like an orange cream circle. Then we went to the France pavilion and we got the rose slushie, which is fantastic. And now the watermelon cucumber slushie. This is my favorite so far. Unbelievable. It's just, I don't know, something about it, like I said. It tastes so super sweet and then the cucumber just brings it down a little bit. Very, very good. I think that maybe in between all of the fancy drinks, maybe we should get something to eat. Maybe try the fried cauliflower, which is served with some capers, garlic parsley, and chili ranch sauce. I don't know about this, but... Yeah. So I'm nervous it's going to be spicy. Yes. We'll give it a go. We'll give it a go. Honestly, I'm not a big fan of, I guess, cauliflower, but that looks delicious. Doesn't it? That looks like one of the prettiest things actually I've seen so far at a festival. Yeah. That's what I was saying. The presentation is like very, very happy. Wow. With the parsley. The parsley, huh? Oh, yeah. So I'm a little worried about the sauce. I did get it with the least amount of sauce on it. Once again, I've never had fried cauliflower, so we're going to give it a go. Oh boy. And please, like I said, just because I didn't like that doesn't mean that the actual thing is not good. It's just I don't like cauliflower. It was a risk for me to try it, but I tried it anyways. I don't know what to say. I'll throw it in there. I do like cauliflower, and I did like it. Yeah. It was very spicy for me. Yes. But I also have a very low tolerance for spice. Wow. And it was like a buffalo type of a sauce. Yeah, I can feel my lips burning a little bit. And my mouth is burning right now. Better get a drink. So if you like spicy, and you like cauliflower. Last time I did the video, which was opening day, we came to the Japan Pavilion, and I actually got some frushi and the martini, which was served with an actual lavender flower inside of it. And it is edible, and I made my friend Josh eat it, and he didn't like it so much because he ate it stem first. But this time, I think I'm going to get it, and I think I'm going to eat it properly, and give it a good judgment. And there it is, the martini. I'm excited. I've already drank it, but I did not eat the flower. So first for everything. Cheers. Cheers. There it is. And maybe things changed since opening day, but they did actually take away the stems. Josh, poor Josh. Anywho's, I'm going to eat the actual flower. But I'm going to let it soak up a little bit. Maybe I'll push it down. There we go. There you go. Get it in there. So I am going to eat the lavender, but what I think I'm going to do is I'm going to drink it and then chew it down and swallow it very quickly. That's the plan. So Josh spit it out. My friend Shane just spit it out. And Jackie won't even eat it. So here we go. Oh my God. It's like a doctor's office. It tastes like a doctor's office. I'm kind of getting Jackie to commit. Oh, don't do that. Oh. It smells good, but some things are not meant to be ingested. I can still taste it. Oh yeah. After actually eating the flower, it's hard to finish the drink, but this is the strongest drink we've had so far. Honestly, like this actually, be prepared. I got to tell you, it's very strong. If you don't like strong tasting drinks, I suggest you drink it very quick. So then that way you don't taste it. Oh, nice. Cool. Okay, back to that drink. Don't drink it quick because it will shoot up your nose and it burns so bad. It actually brought a tear. It really does. And now I kind of feel like a burning sensation right here. One of my coolest little things I like to point out to people is how they actually change the town here in Germany to whatever festival that's happening. So right now it's Flower and Garden, and if you look down there, all the light posts have Flower and Garden signs on them. That is paying attention to detail. That is Disney right there. Look at all the little signs. Isn't that awesome? I really do love it. So here we are in Germany, and I'm excited to try the Potato Pancakes. Now, you guys remember I had a bad experience in SeaWorld and they're a Potato Pancake, but this one looks a little bit different. Thank you. And there it is. I'm telling you, that looks delicious to me. I don't know what the outcome is going to be like. Housemade applesauce, and look how thick. That Potato Pancake is thick. Looks alone, like I said. This has to be good. I'm so excited. It's better without the applesauce. It's amazing, but it's good. I like it. It's a lot better than SeaWorld's Potato Pancake, like I said. The flavors are starting out. Very delicious. Very fluffy. And it's actually pretty big for only $4.50. Like you get two of them with the Housemade Applesauce. I like it a lot. And here we are at the Lotus House, which is the Chinese Pavilion stand. And I think I'm going to go with beer this time. Because I need a break from the sweet stuff. So we're going to get the Jasmine beer. The Jasmine beer. That's what it's called, right Jackie? Yeah. So I'm interested to see what it is. Hopefully there's no flowers in this one. And here is the Jasmine beer. It definitely has a strange color to it. A little gray. I'm kind of confused. I don't know. But I'm sure I'll love it. So funny though, this beer actually does taste like a flower. It doesn't have much of a beer taste to it. Very light. Very light, but kind of planty. I feel like I'm drinking tea and beer mixed together. That's what I said in my video too. No way. Shut up. Yeah. That's amazing. It's got a tea kind of a taste. Yes, it's like tea and beer. Yeah. Wow. I did finish up my Jasmine beer. Honestly, like I said, the tea beer mixture really wasn't that great. It's not something I would get again. I'm sorry. But I did like it. It wasn't like bad. It just kind of felt like a weak beer. A very, very weak beer. So now I think it's time we actually take a little break and sit down somewhere. So we're going to go into the tequila cave here at the Mexico Pavilion. I don't know if that's taking a break, but at least we're sitting down. Other than chips and salsa or chips and queso, which I'll probably not partake in the queso. Oh, there is some salsa though. I will eat some chips. I also got a Mexican draft beer. That's what it says in the menu. But what is it called? A teca? Tecate. A tecate, which looks pretty delicious. Yeah. Jackie got a Bloody Mary beer. What is that called? Michelada. Michelada. The tecate makes like a Bloody Mary type of a drink. Very interesting. Yeah, it is interesting. While in the tequila cave, I think it's tradition that I have myself a little snack. Cheers. Cheers. The fact that you could chew it for that long is already, that's a no go for me. The Black Mirror. Sunflower cheese too. Yup. Well, I think that's going to do it for us. We're inside the tequila cave for a little bit. Just relaxing, talking, socializing, doing cool stuff at Epcot. I had an amazing time tonight, hanging out with great friends. Make sure you check out Jackie's channel. Super enthused. Seriously, I love flower and garden. Sometimes I have to debate whether or not food and wine or flower and garden is my favorite festival. Let me know in the comments below what your favorite festival is. And yeah, that's going to do it. We're heading out. See you next time. Bye.
