Disney Gifts for Family with a Sugar Cookie Martini

A frosted rim, cranberry ice cubes, and that almond‑sweet finish—our Jollywood Nights Sugar Cookie Martini might be the coziest sip of the season, and it sets the tone for a gift guide that actually understands different kinds of Disney people. We start behind the bar with vanilla vodka, Irish cream, and amaretto, then layer in quick upgrades like peppermint sprinkles so your last sip tastes as good as the first. From there, we get practical about presents and draw clean lines between superfans, the “meh” crowd, and outright haters, because joy is personal and branding tolerance varies.

For the diehards, we don’t overthink it: ears, pins, lanyards, Spirit Jerseys, and even a preloaded popcorn bucket deliver high delight with park energy. For the fence‑sitters, we go lighter touch—Pluto totes with broad appeal, Mickey shorts on Blu‑ray, and Disney Plus subscriptions that feel like value, not homework. We even map a bridge for skeptics through Star Wars gifts and tasteful barware that nods to Disney without shouting. Then we zoom into personalized picks: a Beach Club stay focused on Storm‑Along Bay and fishing for the relax‑first traveler, a private plaid day for the logistics‑averse planner, a Cars‑themed ornament for the gearhead, and princess rings or commissioned art that tie to a person’s story.

We wrap with a clear cocktail ranking to guide your party menu and park bar crawl: the Sugar Cookie Martini takes the top spot, followed by a rich Stroopwaffle bourbon coffee for brunch or cold nights. Along the way, we share quick park shopping tips, small‑shop art ideas, and experience‑first gifts like Disney cruises and gift cards that stretch trip budgets. If you want gifts that land, start with the person, connect to their existing loves, and finish with a small flourish—like that peppermint rim that makes your photos pop.

Cheers And Jollywood Martini Basics

SPEAKER_00 0:00

Hello and welcome to Cheers to Ears, where today we're having a Jollywood Night's Sugar Cookie Martini and talking Disney gift ideas for the family. Welcome to Tears to Ears. We're gonna click our drinks. We're gonna toast. We're gonna toast and get our cheers to ears. Cheers to Disney. Okay. Okay, hello, cheers to ears fans everywhere for our final Christmas show of the year.

SPEAKER_01 0:36

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 0:36

Where we're drinking the one of the best drinks. We're ending this on a high note.

SPEAKER_01 0:41

I think this is one of the top five drinks of all time.

Recipe, Garnishes, And First Sips

SPEAKER_00 0:43

Man, this is good. This is a Jollywood Knights sugar cookie martini found at Jollywood Nights at Disney World.

SPEAKER_01 0:49

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 0:50

And it has vanilla vodka, Irish cream, amaretto, and milk. And it's often served with a frosted sprinkle rim glass and sometimes a sugar cookie biscotti for dipping. That'd be interesting. We didn't do that. But it's$11, we said$11.$11. And how do we make it? We made it delicious. I mean, we added stuff. If you can see this, before we start, before Aaron drinks too much of his, because you can probably see his better. But with the sprinkles and this little, we're doing a huge thank you, Christy. Thank you, Christy. Yeah. This is awesome. It's a cranberry ice cube she made.

SPEAKER_01 1:27

Yes, where you put four cranberries in the ice cube, and when it freezes, then it looks very decorative. We did a little peppermint sprinkles on top just to give it a little more color. Everything else. So we did Vale Vanilla vodka, one shot of that, one shot of Bailey's Irish cream liqueur. We did, and I forgot the brand, but we just did like an ounce of amaretto liqueur, and then about an ounce of milk and a half ounce of sugar, simple syrup.

SPEAKER_00 2:00

Man.

SPEAKER_01 2:02

And yeah.

SPEAKER_00 2:03

You can't even. It's creamy. It has that amaretto taste to it.

SPEAKER_01 2:08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 2:09

Slight. It's slight because we didn't add too much. It's a perfect amount of amaretto. It hits and everything.

SPEAKER_01 2:15

It's very boozy because it's all just a bunch of liqueur, Bailey's, the vodka.

SPEAKER_00 2:21

And what doesn't say Christmas time more than boozy?

SPEAKER_01 2:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 2:24

I mean, come on.

SPEAKER_01 2:26

This is to me, this is top five. This is right up there with it's crowding the Ottawa Apple.

SPEAKER_00 2:33

Well, to for top one. Because Ottawa Apple is like the big group.

SPEAKER_01 2:37

It's like the number one.

Disney Martini Rankings And Holiday Drink Recap

SPEAKER_00 2:39

Right. But this is going to be memorable for the drinks. This is as we watch the Army Navy game on Saturday. This might be involved.

SPEAKER_01 2:47

And I have to say, yeah, I think it will be. I have to say the martini game at Disney World and Disneyland is spot on. Because we've done several. We were talking about that. So the key lime pie martini, the cold brew martini, grapefruit cake martini. We did a lemon martini, blueberry lemon martini, and I think we did one other, but they've all been very good. But this is the best one out of all the martinis.

SPEAKER_00 3:17

And just the best way to end our Christmas season here on Cheers to Ears.

SPEAKER_01 3:20

Yeah, with a very nice looking drink.

SPEAKER_00 3:24

It does stick to the coaster.

SPEAKER_01 3:26

The coaster, our cheer, our official Cheers to Ears coasters.

SPEAKER_00 3:30

Right. Rice. I said rice.

Army–Navy Banter And Service Week Ideas

SPEAKER_01 3:32

Gift from Leah Riley here. I'll hold it up to the camera. Yeah, it's dripping all over the place. This is our second drink today.

SPEAKER_00 3:40

Yeah, and uh, so as we record this, the game will be over, but we're watching the Army Navy game this Saturday together. It's gonna be great. My son is at the Naval Academy right now. He got me this great Christmas shirt. If you can see that says damn the torpedoes, full sleigh ahead.

SPEAKER_01 3:56

Yes, with goats.

SPEAKER_00 3:57

Yeah. So yeah.

SPEAKER_01 3:58

Pulling the sleigh, chasing the army donkey?

SPEAKER_00 4:03

It's a mule.

SPEAKER_01 4:04

Mule.

SPEAKER_00 4:04

It's a donkey, whatever they call it.

SPEAKER_01 4:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 4:06

Something just it's probably pretty smart, but not as smart.

SPEAKER_01 4:10

Well, that's interesting. That would be isn't a mule like a cross between a donkey and a horse, and it can't reproduce. I don't know. And is that a desired trait of those who went into the army that they don't reproduce? Maybe.

Framing The Disney Gift Guide

SPEAKER_00 4:23

But I know the Army Navy Week. Like I said, this is gonna come way out way after the game's already over. I say that to a Marine guy who has never really cared about either any other service in his life until now, which is hilarious. Army Navy Week is one of the most one of the funniest things. I wish we would have had an Army Navy Week episode. We'll have one next year. A Disney Army Navy Week. We'll celebrate the services somehow next year because this week is great at the academies. But enough about that. This is not an Academy episode. There's other great ones for that. And if you would like to know them, tell me. Just email us, and I will give you some great podcasts to listen to.

SPEAKER_01 4:59

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 5:00

For that. But we're talking Disney gift ideas today for your families.

SPEAKER_01 5:04

And I misinterpreted what we were doing.

SPEAKER_00 5:06

But that's okay because I probably didn't convey it correctly.

SPEAKER_01 5:09

Because, and as always, we don't really we throw out the idea and we go, yeah, let's go with that. And then we don't really talk about it after that. So Disney Christmas gift ideas for the family. So you took it. I did literally for family, close friends, and you did like just for you made up family members.

SPEAKER_00 5:32

I didn't do that. I just did like a family member that's a Disney lovers, right? Yeah. Those people, the Disney, like eh, like meh, Disney. And then people that say, I will never go to Disney my life as the stupidest thing ever. I can't believe you waste your money on that. You're a Disney adult and I don't like you very much because of it.

SPEAKER_01 5:49

Yeah. Those people. Those people. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 5:51

I don't associate life.

SPEAKER_01 5:53

I don't associate with those. No, they're angry. They're miserable. They like to be happy. They join the army.

SPEAKER_00 5:58

See how good that episode would be if we just we could have an army person in here as a guest. So this is a good idea for next year.

SPEAKER_01 6:06

We'll talk about a you do have a close. Well, that would be five of us, but I was like Eric and my father. I don't know what he would be like on a podcast. Having interviews with some older gentlemen. Yeah. Yeah, they ramble. Right. He wants some dad jokes. You want some dad jokes.

SPEAKER_00 6:21

My dad is the expert at dad jokes.

Gifts For Lovers, Meh Fans, And Haters

SPEAKER_01 6:23

Yes. He's good at them. But I was just like, if we had you, your dad, or Eric, and then Eli, we've got three branches. Uh-huh. And we don't really need to do the Air Force. I could represent the Air Force because anyone could. Anybody could. I was I flew in a plane once.

SPEAKER_00 6:40

My brother-in-law was in the Air Force.

SPEAKER_01 6:41

Was he?

SPEAKER_00 6:42

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 6:43

And that's all you have to say about that. Okay. Yeah. So you have nondescript family members. I actually went with actual people.

SPEAKER_00 6:55

So we just do one at a time like we do sometimes. Like we just one person does all their thing. Maybe I should go first.

SPEAKER_01 7:02

Yeah. Because maybe we can discuss you. Because mine would break up into I would say three groups.

SPEAKER_00 7:07

Yeah, then you can just do your whole list though. Because mine's not long. Mostly the haters is what I have. Because for a Disney lover, it's anything. It's dumb. It's not even. You can buy them anything, right? Yeah. The best thing is to buy like if I was buying something for Addy or Eli. I say Addie. Addie's a huge Disney fan, right? Yeah. Son's fiance. And she would, I mean, Mickey Ears. Like her Christmas list that she sent us is amazing this year because it's a lot. It's very Disney inspired. Really? Which I love because Christy's list has zero Disney on it.

SPEAKER_01 7:38

That's weird. I know it's I would have thought she'd be full.

SPEAKER_00 7:42

You would think so. Yeah. After Animal Kingdom.

SPEAKER_01 7:45

Yeah. She bought all the things there.

SPEAKER_00 7:47

She bought it. Yeah, she bought all sorts of stuff. So just a Mickey Ears spirit jersey kind of thing. Yeah. For that person. For the med person, and I'll just go down the list real fast and we can discuss yours probably more because and I might add some stuff. I might even have some ideas for stuff I my family as we go along. For the med person, you want to get them like like DVDs on Mickey Mouse cartoons?

SPEAKER_01 8:09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 8:10

Who doesn't like Mickey Mouse? A Disney Plus subscription? Mm-hmm. Yeah. That's good because they can a Pluto tote bag, I think, is a good thing to get anybody. Even if you don't like Disney, who doesn't like Pluto? Yeah. He's not really just he doesn't scream Mickey Mouse in your face like I I don't care about Disney. Pluto's just a character.

SPEAKER_01 8:29

I mean, he appeals to a lot. Dog people. Right. Disney people.

SPEAKER_00 8:33

Yeah, Pluto transcends Disney.

SPEAKER_01 8:36

He's he is up there. Yeah, as far as appeal.

SPEAKER_00 8:41

Yeah. So when you see Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck or Minnie, or you think Disney. You think Disney's goofy. Pluto's just Pluto. Yeah. I think he could, he's Disney, but he could be mid. Yeah. Right? Absolutely. And of course, Star Wars stuff. Star Wars is Disney now, but it wasn't always. So you have those people that don't love Disney, but they always love Star Wars. Yeah. And they used to separate the two.

SPEAKER_01 9:07

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00 9:08

And now they can't. They can't.

SPEAKER_01 9:10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 9:10

Yeah. I work with a guy just started at work, and he has Star Wars sleeves. Oh, wow. Okay. Yeah. Darth Vader, Anakin. He has the whole he has the whole Anakin Skywalker life. Oh, okay. On his arm. And so he's never been to Disney at all. Yeah. But he would probably love it. He would love. I told him about Dave and I as we went into walked in the Galaxy's Edge the first time.

SPEAKER_01 9:38

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 9:38

It was amazing. It was amazing. Yeah. Just the looks on our faces, the looking at Dave as he walked in, the wide eyes. Yeah. Almost a tear in your eye.

SPEAKER_01 9:49

I can imagine, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 9:51

Yeah. So Star Wars stuff for a mid person, right? And I came up with a few ideas for the haters.

SPEAKER_01 9:58

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 9:58

Okay. A little butt- you know those buttons that people have, they push and they say stuff? Oh, yeah, yeah. A button that says Disney's for people, Disney's with people that don't like life button. Like they hit the button. I hate Disney.

SPEAKER_01 10:12

I hate Disney. Yeah. I hate Disney.

SPEAKER_00 10:14

Like if I'm talking about Disney too much, Christy can have that button, right? Stop talking about it. It could just say stop talking about Disney. Yeah. Right? It could be a different button for any person. It could be personalized. It could be. Right? And you hit the button, stop talking about Disney. Disney timeout. A Disney timeout button. Disney Timeout button. Yeah, Chrissy needs one of those. She's in the hate, she's not in Disney hater category.

SPEAKER_01 10:33

No.

SPEAKER_00 10:34

She's in the meh.

SPEAKER_01 10:35

She's in the meh.

SPEAKER_00 10:36

Yeah, category.

SPEAKER_01 10:37

But I could see her wanting you to stop talking about Disney.

SPEAKER_00 10:40

She could use the button to just Yeah, she would want a remote one.

SPEAKER_01 10:42

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 10:43

That she could wear.

SPEAKER_01 10:44

Yeah. Hooked up to your phone to where it would be text me automatically.

Personalized Gift Picks For Family And Friends

SPEAKER_00 10:49

Yeah, I came for the snacks shirt. Yeah. That's the Disney haters. Okay. That's the Disney haters, right? Yeah. Yeah. Star Wars stuff. Again, Star Wars stuff. Because you don't hate Disney if you hate Star Wars. Exactly. And uh Disney cocktail glasses.

SPEAKER_01 11:07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 11:07

Why not? Who doesn't like Disney? Who doesn't like a cocktail glass?

SPEAKER_01 11:10

Yeah. Everybody needs cocktail glasses, whether or not they're and if they have a Mickey Mouse face on them.

SPEAKER_00 11:16

Yay. And my final one is to go crazy on them and get them an entire gift bag with a popcorn bucket, uh-huh, Disney pins, yeah, a lanyard, yeah, uh, and a uh and uh buttons like the birthday button and the first time button only there for them with their name already on it.

SPEAKER_01 11:35

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 11:35

Yeah. Okay. That's my ideas. Nice. Really simple. Very simple. I really struggle with this more than I thought I would. This is one of my most struggled idea episodes. What I should have done is done I if I would have done what you did and looked at like the Disney app and searched online at what they're selling the stores right now, yeah, and really shopped, like this would have got me more involved, I think.

SPEAKER_01 11:58

I only had to go on and do that for one person because I know what their interests are. Uh-huh. And I had to find something that aligned with both their interest and Disney.

SPEAKER_00 12:08

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 12:08

But everybody else, something just popped into my head.

SPEAKER_00 12:11

Okay, let's do yours and describe so you can't like say who you're talking about. Like just saying Leah doesn't make sense.

SPEAKER_01 12:19

This would be good. This would be good because then you can guess. Oh, I'm guessing. So I will say what it is, and you guess, and then I'll tell you whether you're right or not.

SPEAKER_00 12:29

Well, I don't know Leah's husband, Brad. That's the only person I do not know, I think.

SPEAKER_01 12:33

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 12:33

Well, we'll I'll get it, you think?

SPEAKER_01 12:36

There's a few that you probably won't get.

SPEAKER_00 12:38

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 12:38

So because like you don't know my cousin and yeah. So first one a week at beach club in a two-bedroom, no park tickets, two-bedroom club level, no park tickets, but they have access to Stormlong Bay Pool and every other day fishing excursions.

SPEAKER_00 12:56

That's Dave.

SPEAKER_01 12:57

Yeah. That's easy. That's Dave. Yeah. And I thought club level for him. Yeah. So two-bedroom. He could go get snacks all day. He could hang out at the pool. Yep. He could go do his fishing trips, and he could sleep two-bedroom because he can just shut the door. And or when he comes out, he can just be watching TV all day. Yep. Just that would be a perfect Disney trip, I think, for him.

SPEAKER_00 13:22

I think it would be too.

SPEAKER_01 13:23

Yeah. And he could save a few hundred bucks from going to the parks. Actually, I think he goes to the park because he likes seeing everybody else happy. I think so too. That's why he goes to the parks.

SPEAKER_00 13:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 13:33

To see everybody else happy. Yeah. Okay. So the next one: a giant box of Disney Christmas decorations. Oh, that's easy too. Yeah. That's Asha.

SPEAKER_00 13:44

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 13:44

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 13:45

So that's Dave's wife, Asha, we're talking about. Yes. So this is your family.

SPEAKER_01 13:49

My family. Right.

SPEAKER_00 13:50

We're talking about. It's also my wife's best friend is Asha. Yeah. And that's how we know each other.

SPEAKER_01 13:55

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 13:55

So yeah, that they work together.

SPEAKER_01 13:56

The kids have all grown up together.

SPEAKER_00 13:58

We've known these people forever.

SPEAKER_01 13:59

Okay, so I'm going to mix this up. Okay. Actually, this is going to be an easy one. A Chubi popcorn bucket.

SPEAKER_00 14:05

A chubi popcorn bucket?

SPEAKER_01 14:07

That's easy.

SPEAKER_00 14:08

Yeah. Chewy? Yeah. Oh, for me. Yeah. Oh, okay. I was on your list. You were on my list. Okay, I don't know. I was on your list. I was telling who you are. Who but me loves Chubi?

SPEAKER_01 14:20

This one might be a little tougher. Well, maybe not. Okay. See, these are that's the thing, is these are pretty specific to the person. And I'm doing the people you know first. So good. A lifetime Disney Plus subscription. Lifetime Disney Plus subscription. Yes.

SPEAKER_00 14:36

DJ? What am I supposed to know it? Is it easy?

SPEAKER_01 14:39

I think. Yeah. Christy. Does she watch a lot of Disney Plus? I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 14:44

Who watched Disney Plus?

SPEAKER_01 14:45

Leah. Oh, does she? She's a movie critic.

SPEAKER_00 14:47

I didn't know that.

SPEAKER_01 14:47

She wants to come on and when we do a movie review, that's the episode we could get her for is doing a movie review. But we wouldn't be able to talk. She would talk for half an hour about the movie.

SPEAKER_00 15:00

She could sit right here.

SPEAKER_01 15:01

Yes. And we'll just sit here. And we just sit and have our drinks, and she would just talk.

SPEAKER_00 15:05

Because one of our specialties is eye candy. That's what we're really good at. We yeah. Oh man, that might be the funniest thing I've ever seen. Okay. Go ahead.

SPEAKER_01 15:13

His own personal plaid for the day, which I just kind of gave that partially up by his Yeah, but I don't know which one that is.

SPEAKER_00 15:23

The Eli?

SPEAKER_01 15:24

I didn't. I so I thought about Eli and McKeon. I don't know who you included. Yeah, that's true. I I thought about Eli and Addie and Is it DJ? It would be DJ.

SPEAKER_00 15:33

But well, I mean he wouldn't need a the plaid just gets on the same ride over and over again. Does a plaid sit on the at the end of the ride DJ walks off and gets right back on the road?

SPEAKER_01 15:41

But see, you've taken enough trips with DJ, it's he wants to do all the things, but he doesn't want to manage it.

SPEAKER_00 15:48

That's true.

SPEAKER_01 15:48

Yeah. And so if he has his plaid, he could just tell the plaid what he wants to do next and he can go do it. So he gets his own personal plaid for the day. And then harder than I thought. Yeah. There's only a couple more. There's just Brad and Christy. Which, okay, so I'm gonna do Christy next. Okay. Because I said an all-expense paid Disney cruise.

SPEAKER_00 16:09

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 16:10

And I'll actually do that, but it must be claimed by 449 on December 10th. Like in one minute. Christy, you gotta claim it. You got one minute to claim your Disney cruise. Oh, nope. Sorry, you dismissed it. I think, but so thinking about Christ, I think a Disney cruise.

SPEAKER_00 16:27

She would like a Disney cruise, I think.

SPEAKER_01 16:29

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 16:29

We've never taken a cruise still. We talk about it all the time, but it just doesn't end up in our vacation thing.

SPEAKER_01 16:35

Yeah, because there's so many.

SPEAKER_00 16:37

And it fit Disney in there in Annapolis in with what we want to do.

SPEAKER_01 16:41

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 16:42

Like I really want to go tour the Civil War battle sites.

unknown 16:45

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 16:46

That's my dream vacation right now. I'm trying to plan it right now. Oh, nice. It's it's a I really, I mean, really want to go to Gettysburg and Antietham.

SPEAKER_01 16:54

That would be cool. Man, okay. The last one is Brad.

SPEAKER_00 16:59

Okay. Which I don't know at all.

SPEAKER_01 17:01

Yeah. And so he is a big cars fan.

SPEAKER_00 17:04

Oh, is he?

SPEAKER_01 17:04

Yeah. Okay. So I just saw the uniform from Radiator Springs Racers. Okay. Just a uniform that they wear for the ride. Uh-huh. Yeah. Would he wear that? I have no idea. But the fact that he had it, I think, would be enough for him.

SPEAKER_00 17:18

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 17:18

Yeah. Whether or not he wore it, just having a uniform would be enough.

SPEAKER_00 17:23

That's funny.

SPEAKER_01 17:24

So the I had three other people. So there's Heaven and Roxanne and Ron. So Roxanne and Heaven are my cousins. Okay. Heaven being her daughter. Okay. Roxanne's daughter. And then Ron, who's Roxanne's boyfriend.

SPEAKER_00 17:36

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 17:37

And these will resonate with them, uh, I believe. So Roxanne would get a Visa gift card to pay for her next Disney trip. All right. Yeah. That's just I think that's all she'd want. I just a cart of great.

SPEAKER_00 17:52

I mean, who wouldn't want that?

SPEAKER_01 17:53

Expense free trip. I'll take a Disney gift card anytime. This is true. I would too. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 17:58

Reason. That's like one of the best gifts you could ever give me is a Disney gift card. Then I how do I spend this money on Disney?

SPEAKER_01 18:06

On Disney. So Ron, so he's really into snowmobiling. So I just I put into, I think it was Amazon. Snowmobile Disney. Okay. And it actually a Disney Cars themed snowmobile ornament.

SPEAKER_00 18:23

Okay.

Park Shopping, Rings, And Trip Planning

SPEAKER_01 18:23

Yeah. That's cool. So that's what he would get for Christmas. Which is kind of light compared to every what everybody else is getting. But he's the type of guy he'd just be happy with that. Yeah. Yeah. People could be getting like free trips to Disney. He got an ornament that's just his thing. Nice. And he would like that. Heaven. It's the last one on my list. She would get a gift card to Disney Home to buy Disney themed art and kitchen gadgets.

SPEAKER_00 18:50

Yeah. Yeah. That'd be great if that's what Christy wanted.

SPEAKER_01 18:53

So that's and I thought that would be yeah. So these were all stuff thinking about them. What would be the best Disney gift for the people that I know? And yeah, this would be Christie was probably the toughest.

SPEAKER_00 19:07

And just thought you'd just get Christie from the parks. Say you're shopping in the parks, that you're going to the park and buying something. There's ornaments. Earrings? There's earrings. I'll always look at earrings.

SPEAKER_01 19:20

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 19:21

For Michaela, I think one thing Michaela, if she was to buy something from Disney, she really wants the Tiana ring. There's a there's rank, there's Princess Rings. That's on Michaela and Addy's Christmas list. Is it Tiana Tiana? And I think Addy's is Elsa.

SPEAKER_01 19:39

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 19:39

I think that's her family. I thought Belle was her favorite.

SPEAKER_01 19:42

Oh, see, yeah, I would have thought Belle.

SPEAKER_00 19:44

Yeah. Because she's a big Beauty in the Beast fan, right? Yeah, it's I think Elsa's her favorite. I think. And and Michaela's obviously is Tiana. Yeah. That's the person. That's her girl. That's the person most liked Michaela all around, anyway, in all of Disney. And she's hasn't been since the ride opened. Oh to Disney. I know. We're talking, we're in the talks right now of Disney Channel Night.

SPEAKER_01 20:08

Disney Channel Night.

SPEAKER_00 20:09

They're having that again next year. I think it's in April.

SPEAKER_01 20:13

Oh, okay. One of the evening the night evening events.

SPEAKER_00 20:16

She they had it a couple years two years ago. Okay. They didn't do it last year. They did it the year before. Or they didn't do it this year. They did it the year before. Yeah. It's not in the next year yet. But it's just celebrates Disney Channel. And that's Michaela. I mean, high school high school musical at Hannah Montana are Michaela's vibes. Okay. That's what she grew up with. That's Michaela as a kid. We're talking about making that trip happen.

SPEAKER_01 20:39

Oh, that would be fun.

SPEAKER_00 20:40

So buy for Michaela a tiara. Yeah. She always wants them every time I send her, send them to her when we're at one of the shops at Disney.

SPEAKER_01 20:48

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 20:48

She's like, can you buy that for me right now?

SPEAKER_01 20:50

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 20:50

I think for Eli, I would like to get like a commission piece of the chef or the cook, the baker? The baker from Beating the Beast.

SPEAKER_01 20:58

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 20:59

You can't find that anywhere. Because that's who he played in his high school play.

Final Drink Rankings And Peppermint Twist

SPEAKER_01 21:03

Yeah. Now, could you go to the where they do the art the animation studio at DCA?

SPEAKER_00 21:11

You would think that you could, but you cannot. No, they only make the you can only have them draw for you, personalized draw for you, something from their book.

SPEAKER_01 21:21

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 21:22

Because we asked.

SPEAKER_01 21:23

Yeah. Okay. And that's what I was going to suggest asking them. Right.

SPEAKER_00 21:27

And there's probably find someone online. And I thought about looking up online because some gig work artists. Right. Like the best online Disney person, which anyone like us will love in their home, is there's a guy who he's actually designed signs for Disney. Oh. Like he made the original, he carved out of wood the original Splash Mountain sign. Oh. And you can commission him to do pieces of work for your house.

SPEAKER_01 21:50

Interesting.

SPEAKER_00 21:51

Yeah. I'll show it to you after we record. I'll show you his website. It's great. Yeah. What else do we have? I was trying, I was trying to think of different stuff to buy in the parks because we weren't really fast here, I think, today.

SPEAKER_01 22:03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 22:03

But we can, I mean, we can be have a short episode because it's Christmas time and we can go have another beverage.

SPEAKER_01 22:09

We can go have another beverage and let release people to their week of Disney.

SPEAKER_00 22:13

And their Christmas, because this is our last Christmas episode. And it's this comes out the Monday before Christmas. Is that right?

SPEAKER_01 22:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 22:20

This will come out. And so Christmas will be on Thursday.

SPEAKER_01 22:23

What drinks did we have the first two episodes? I'm trying to remember what drinks we oh, you know what? I know how to figure that out. We had the holiday cosmopolitan, and we had this is definitely the best Christmas drink. Jolly Holly cocktail.

SPEAKER_00 22:38

That was they were both okay.

SPEAKER_01 22:41

Those were okay. So I would say I'm ranking them. Number one is this martini. The right with a sugar cookie martini.

SPEAKER_00 22:50

Yes, number one.

SPEAKER_01 22:51

Number one. Hands down. Number two, I think, is pretty easily the Stroopwaffle bourbon coffee.

SPEAKER_00 22:56

That was very good.

SPEAKER_01 22:58

Now, and I can't remember what was in the Jolly Holly. That makes it last. If you can't remember. And the Cosmopolitan.

SPEAKER_00 23:06

It was good. You never really had a Cosmo before.

SPEAKER_01 23:08

I'd never had a Cosmo.

SPEAKER_00 23:09

So it was a little twist on a Cosmo. It was a twist. You do a tweet. Yeah. And that's the kind of the that's a new theme of our show, is we're Disney with a twist. Disney with a with a tweet. With a little twist.

SPEAKER_01 23:22

Yeah, I would have to go agree with that. Jolly Holly was the fourth. And then the Holiday Cosmopolitan. But this. I mean, the only important thing is this is number one. This is number one.

SPEAKER_00 23:32

Yeah, that's the most important thing about the rankings.

SPEAKER_01 23:34

The only thing. Well, no, the bourbon coffee, because I like coffee drinks, and that would have been a good iced coffee. Even without the bourbon, I think that would have been a good one. But let me eat a stroopwaffle.

SPEAKER_00 23:47

That was a good one too. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 23:48

But this is like this is a good cocktail. Right. This is a good drink.

SPEAKER_00 23:53

This if we if you picked a Stroopwaffle as number one, that would be a real snub, unlike what the AL MVP was this year. Not a snub.

SPEAKER_01 24:03

Oh, with so if we have any, I don't think we have any like baseball.

SPEAKER_00 24:07

We probably have baseball fans, but I'd throw that out there for you. Because but we agree. We totally agree that it was there's yeah, such is life, right? Such is life. Right. And you finished yours early.

SPEAKER_01 24:18

I did.

SPEAKER_00 24:19

I still have a little bit left.

SPEAKER_01 24:20

Pounded that sucker down.

SPEAKER_00 24:22

I'm gonna go finish this. And what?

SPEAKER_01 24:24

I gotta say with this, we did, and it was it said holiday sprinkles on it. I did peppermint sprinkles, which were just basically crushed up candy canes. And it actually, I think it was it went well with the flavor, having that little bit, that last drink with a little bit of the peppermint, was still worked with it.

SPEAKER_00 24:44

Oh yeah, and my ice cube has collapsed and now that have cranberries in there. This is great.

SPEAKER_01 24:49

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 24:50

Cranberry taste at the end.
