Independence Day is almost here and to celebrate this patriotic extravaganza, the Disney chefs and mixologists have put their all into making some memorable items for the Fourth of July. At both Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort, there will be red, white, and beautiful treats all around that are bursting with flavors you’ll love.

There are plenty of treats to indulge in and exciting entertainment to enjoy, including special fireworks that light up the sky for our nation’s birthday. No matter which location you’re at, there’s something for everyone.

And once you see all of the flavorful items, you’ll want to grab your most festive gear and your appetite to taste them for yourself. Try the delicious Fourth of July Fruit Tart at the Contempo Café or indulge in a twist on a dish from a tale as old as time with the Star-Spangled Stuff at Red Rose Taverne – your taste buds will thank you.
