Florida Orange Grove Winery Sparkling Pineapple Wine: Prosecco in the morning was just what the doctor ordered, so when I spotted this sparkling drink on the menu, I took it to Hawaii for afternoon tea. I’m usually a dry vanilla drinker and this was so sweet. This is a perfect dessert drink to enjoy on the way out of the park, but once in, know that this drink is quite sweet. —Katie McPherson
Maui Brewing Co. Orange Mango Guava Hazy IPA: IPA is one of the more controversial drinks on the market right now. people who love them like them. If you tell someone who hates them that you love them, they’ll have all kinds of sassy jokes ready to go. For me, I’m picky about the IPAs I like, and I real Love this. The citrus balances the bitterness of the hops without making the beer feel like it’s flavored with syrup. To quote a pretentious beer dude: It’s incredibly “drinking.” — Jamie Kenny
Slow Roasted Pork Sliders: I’ll admit, I only had a taste when a colleague ordered it, and I regretted not getting my own. We started with the pulled pork – already a winner – topped with sweet and sour pineapple chutney and spicy mayo. All the flavors blend together perfectly here. — Jamie Kenny
Hawaiian rice bowl: A week into our trip to Epcot, I can’t stop thinking about the humble Hawaiian rice bowl at the Hawaii Food and Wine Festival pavilion. The smaller minded might think the slow roasted pork sliders are a sexier order, and I admit rice, eggs and spam may not seem that impressive, but for the magic of a long day, a squirt of eel sauce and Spicy mayonnaise and you’ll be transported to a flavor town and won’t want to go home. —Meaghan O’Connell, Features Editor
Passion fruit cheesecake with toasted macadamia nuts: I’m a huge cheesecake fan (what, two of my favorite things combined?) and tried three different cheesecakes while at Disney. This is my favorite. Super bright and tropical without the heaviness that cheesecake can sometimes have. Roasted nuts add texture. — Sarah Aswell, deputy editor for news and community
*All parts of the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival, now through November 23
