National Ice Cream Month

July is National Ice Cream Month and when you’re on a theme park vacation, ice cream can sometimes be one of those timeless treats you just have to have! I asked the #ReachfortheMagic team about their favorite ice cream options and here’s what they had to share…


Favorite Places for Ice Cream:

  • Beaches & Cream Soda Shop (Walt Disney World Resort)

  • Plaza Ice Cream Shop (Walt Disney World Resort)

  • Toothsome Chocolate Emporium (Universal Orlando Resort-CityWalk)

  • Florean Fortescue's Ice-Cream Parlour (Universal Orlando Resort)

  • Tiki Juice Bar (Disneyland Resort)

We’re sharing some of our favorite ice cream treats to show the range of offerings that may be available for snacking on YOUR next vacation!


In the Disney fan community, one popular question is…Dole Whip vs Mickey Mouse Ice Cream Bar! What would you choose?

OR do you prefer the Dole Whip float instead?!?

Sometimes, there are "special" goodies available depending on the time of year or the event taking place, such as this Bathtub Party Sundae at the 2019 H20 Glow Night event at Disney's Typhoon Lagoon!

At Universal Orlando Resort, while Butterbeer is a popular beverage choice, Butterbeer ice cream is also pretty delicious!
