Disney also announced The Tropical Hideaway would be getting Shrimp & Chive Potstickers but Cast Members told us that was a mistake.

This mostly tastes like a traditional DOLE Whip float with some ginger on top. The ginger pairs well with the pineapple flavor. It’s refreshing for a hot day.

The two chunks of charred pineapple were a nice addition that gave the treat some texture. We didn’t get much of the mint flavor.

If you’re not a fan of ginger, definitely skip this. But the ginger has refreshing notes that make this different from a normal float.

Don’t go out of your way for this but if you want to try the new food offerings, this is a good option.
