Today, May 30th, is officially National Mint Julep Day! While there are some National Holidays that are a bit silly, this is definitely one that I can get behind! Any excuse to enjoy an alcoholic or a non-alcoholic version of this staple specialty drink will always make it onto my priority list. You might already know that Mint Juleps have been a staple at Disneyland Park since 1966 when Mint Julep Bar was first opened in New Orleans Square. Who would have known how perfectly fitting that would be all these years later with the most recent additions of Tiana’s Palace, Eudora’s Chic Boutique, and soon, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure also moving into the surrounding areas? Today, there are several varieties of this iconic beverage served at both the Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort, and we want to show you where you can find them all with a little help from Disney Parks Blog!
