La Cava del Tequila, the tucked-away bar inside EPCOT's Mexico Pavilion, is toasting 17 years with a limited anniversary cocktail that blends some serious spirits. Available starting August 29, 2026, the drink is an Old Fashioned that the team aged in-house for 17 weeks — one week for every year the bar has been pouring at Walt Disney World.
The recipe brings together Blanton's Bourbon, LALO tequila blanco, Amaro liqueur, Ancho Reyes Barrica, Mole Bitters, and a house-made cherry syrup. It's an unusually bourbon-forward pour for a tequila bar, but the combination of smoky ancho and mole bitters keeps it firmly rooted in La Cava's Mexico-inspired identity.
La Cava first opened its doors at EPCOT in August 2009, and the bar has built a devoted following over the years for its extensive agave selection — including some tequilas poured exclusively within the La Cava experience. The anniversary cocktail is available to guests 21 and older.
If you're planning a trip to EPCOT to raise a glass, it's worth knowing that Walt Disney World tickets can vary in price depending on the date, so booking ahead often pays off.
The anniversary cocktail was announced via La Cava del Tequila's official Instagram on August 27, 2026, as reported by WDW News Today.
