Plus, in addition to all the holiday fun, Universal Orlando offer a yummy selection of holiday treats and Jonathan Taylor at Universal Parks Blog has shared this years favorite specialty holiday snacks around Universal Orlando Resort.
Toothsome’s Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen
At Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen in Universal CityWalk you can enjoy this years speciality holiday milkshake, a Letter to Santa, the main flavor here is coquito, a classic Puerto RIcan cocktail with coconut and rum flavors. He said the coquito flavor profile is very similar to eggnog, but different enough to lure in the eggnog haters.
The milkshake itself is delicious, it's a thick, coconut-flavored shake, with flakes of coconut, and a hint of rum flavoring (it’s a 0% ABV milkshake meaning there is no alcohol). The best part is the letter to Santa on top. Made of chocolate, it rests on a mountain of whipped topping which is also sprinkled with red.
Hop on Pop | Seuss Landing in Universal Islands of Adventure
Seuss Landing is holiday central at the Universal Orlando Resort. The Grinch has taken over fan-favorite Hop on Pop with a plethora of green items inspired by the heartwarming villain. The Ice Cream Sandwich features green cookies and a large block of ice cream. The green cookies are also available separately and are super soft.
Another fun option is the Grinch’s Heart Hot Chocolate Bomb. It comes with a cup of hot chocolate, which you drop the heart into.
All of these green treats have a smaller, red cinnamon accessory, meant to signify the Grinch’s heart before it grew three sizes. It’s a heartwarming reminder of the beloved story!
