Shoppers are raising a glass , Disney Springs restaurants are serving colourful, limited-time cocktails for Pride Month that taste as good as they look and donate to an LGBTQ youth charity. Here’s what to order, why the drinks work, and a few tips for enjoying them around the resort.

Essential Takeaways

  • Limited-time menu: Three specialty cocktails available throughout June at The Edison, Maria & Enzo’s and Enzo’s Hideaway.
  • Charity support: $2 from each cocktail goes to The Trevor Project, helping LGBTQ youth.
  • Flavour profiles: Drinks are fruity and approachable with balanced sweetness and a hint of smoke or bitterness.
  • Standout ingredients: Dos Hombres tequila/mezcal features across the trio, plus Midori, Chinola and Aperol.
  • Atmosphere matters: Order at The Edison for a theatrical, 1920s-steampunk vibe with live music.

Colourful cocktails that do the talking

The menu was built around visual appeal without being gimmicky, and you can taste the thought in each sip. The three new drinks , a Passionfruit Margarita, a Honeydew Smash and the Cranstonian , come in pink, green and yellow hues that feel festive but refined. According to the beverage manager who developed them, the aim was to make cocktails that “stand on their own merit” while supporting a cause.

That balance shows up in the recipes. The margarita leans on Dos Hombres tequila with Chinola passionfruit liqueur and fresh lime, so it’s bright and tangy rather than cloying. The Honeydew Smash layers Midori’s melon sweetness over a smoky mezcal note, creating depth. And the Cranstonian mixes mezcal, cranberry and Aperol for slightly bitter, complex fruitiness.

Why the Trevor Project partnership matters

Giving matters here: $2 from every cocktail sold during June goes to The Trevor Project, a well-known suicide prevention and crisis intervention charity for LGBTQ youth. It’s an easy, everyday way for diners to contribute while enjoying a night out, and the restaurants say guests have responded warmly to the combination of charity and craft.

Restaurants often partner with causes during Pride, but this feels purposeful , cocktails designed to be enjoyable and respectful, not just colourful props. If you want to amplify the impact, consider ordering a round for your group or tipping a little extra on the bill.

Where to drink them and what the vibe is like

If ambience is part of the experience, head to The Edison for full theatre: the 1920s-steampunk décor, live music and detailed historical touches make it feel like a mini-escape from the shopping district. Maria & Enzo’s and Enzo’s Hideaway offer their own Italian-inspired settings, so you can pick the mood that fits your evening.

Plan ahead for weekend crowds at Disney Springs. Arrive early for a table or grab a cocktail at the bar to soak up the soundcheck and lights, and remember that live music might push you toward louder conversation , in a good way.

How the cocktails were tested , and what that means for you

The Beverage Manager reportedly spent a week experimenting with the recipes, running taste-tests with staff and iterating based on feedback. That collaborative approach helps explain why the drinks are balanced: they’re approachable without being overly sweet and they work well with food.

If you’re trying these, order one that matches your sweet-to-bitter preference. Pick the Passionfruit Margarita if you want bright and citrusy; choose the Honeydew Smash for something sweeter with smoky depth; and go for the Cranstonian if you prefer a tart, slightly bitter finish.

Practical tips for visitors

  • Try them early in your visit so you can swap out if one isn’t your style; the flavours are distinct.
  • Share cocktails if you want to sample more than one without overdoing it.
  • Ask the bartender about slight tweaks , most places can adjust sweetness or strength.
  • Combine a drink with a small plate to extend the experience and steady the palate.

It’s a small, tasty gesture that supports a good cause and gives Disney Springs a colourful lift for Pride Month.
