Walt Disney World® Resort Area

Discover some of Orlando’s most imaginative zero-proof drinks at Salt & the Cellar by Akira Back inside ette hotel Orlando, where you can sip on six colorful concoctions designed by expert mixologist Jarl de Vries. All are enhanced with fresh botanical ingredients, aromatic mists, spritzes and more to delight the senses. And while alcoholic versions are also available, it’s important to note that the drinks were initially designed to be enjoyed without spirits. Think earthy forests, divine queen bees and raging bulls, all translated into liquid form and served up in jaw-dropping vessels for full sensory immersion.

SODO KAVA

SODO District

Unwind with refreshing zero-proof mocktails at SODO KAVA, a fully alcohol-free lounge with two central Florida locations. Along with fresh botanical teas, kava, coffee and Vitalitea beverages on tap, the laid-back spot offers a variety of delicious mocktails crafted with your choice of kava or botanical tea. Current favorites include the Cacao Mama (organic raw cacao, plant milk, agave, lavender), Island Palmer (half botanical tea, half kombucha), and Hades Hex (pomegranate, passionfruit, mango, apple, lime). Their original location is in the SODO District near downtown Orlando, with a second lounge located north of Orlando in the city of Longwood.
