Many Disney visitors are familiar with a brand that can be found several places around property: Joffrey’s Coffee & Tea Company. We have been known to regularly enjoy coffees, teas, and frozen drinks while visiting the parks and Joffrey’s has become a familiar brand. As part of Epcot’s International Food & Wine Festival, Joffrey’s has created several specialty beverages only available during this time at Epcot. Each Joffrey’s location in the park offers a featured drink and we have taken a trip around the world to sample these new creations. Read on for our review of these limited edition recipes…

Update: Why We Changed Our Name to The Orlando DINKs
Yup, you read that correctly, after 6 years of being known as The Disney DINKs, we are officially changing our name to The Orlando DINKs.
While changing one word doesn’t seem like a huge change, it feels pretty huge to us since this has been our identity for so long. There are a few reasons why we decided to make the change, some of which are directly related to Disney and some that aren’t. Before we really get into it, we want to be very clear that this article isn’t an intent to bash Disney by any means. We have had amazing experiences related to Disney, from our wedding, multiple Anniversary trips on both coasts, and Disneyland Paris. Being Disney Vacation Club members has allowed us to experience some amazing destinations including Hawaii, Hilton Head Island, and Vero Beach. None of these would have been possible without DVC. We have also had the pleasure of sharing these experiences with friends and family throughout the years. So while it may seem like we are quitting Disney, we certainly are not (and please note we are even keeping our fun mouse ear branding!) Read on to learn more…
