I was never talking about or insinuating that this is a great way to get "smashed" I was just sharing a little tip for those (adults) who might be interested.

I didn't expect an uproar of "you know that's against the rules." "you're a lush", etc. First off, everyone knows its a rule not too bring in your own alcohol. If you're obnoxious and not discreet you deserve to be caught, that's your own fault for being an idiot.

There are loads of people that bring in little airline size bottles of liquor to the parks ESPECIALLY during Food & Wine.

I don't go telling on people when I see them bringing in Tostitos and making Nachos at Peco's Bills or Cosmic Rays.

We all pay a lot of money to these places year and year out, and everyone is entitled to do what they want, as long as they have respect for others around them.

With that said, I had Malibu in my dole whip as well, but that was at the Poly. I better get to my AA meeting. :lol:

I'm guessing that this whole discussion relates more to which "spikes" actually taste good when added to butterbeer, rather than how to achieve a buzz while at IOA. As mentioned above, alcohol is already available in the park, so I'll look at this more as a "recipe suggestion" rather than a "smuggling suggestion."

Given that butterbeer tastes like creme soda, my smartphone app suggests vodka or Kahlua (ingredients used in other drink mixes that also include creme soda). These guys look like they've "had a few":

If everyone started smuggling alcohol into the parks, then the HP characters would refer to us normal people as "smuggles," and we would all agree that "smuggles" would be a pretty stupid name for fictional characters to use to describe us.

"No smuggles beyond this point." :cry:

These threads never end well.

The anti-drinkees get all mad at the pro-drinkees. The pro-drinkees get all mad at the anti-drinkees. Name calling ensues...


For the record. I am pro-drinkee. I am on vacation, I enjoy beer, I enjoy wine, I enjoy spirits, I enjoy getting a little buzz during my evenings. :wave:

I'm not a minor. I suggested this to fellow adults.

I do love your holier than thou attitude though, it gives me a good chuckle.

I'm certainly not holier than thou, as I enjoy a cocktail or beer myself. But I never advocate sneaking alcohol into parks nor do I call people names.

Nor do I advocate ways to hide said alcohol on a forum that many underage people frequent. After all, this is a family site.

So, could you provide a link or direct us to exactly where this alleged entitlement is actually posted or written?

You aren't entitled to do whatever you want. You must obey the park's rules. They don't exist just for giggles.

Oh, come on! You think Fred and George Weasley weren't sneaking booze into their butter beer?

I would presume that the "real thing" was alcoholic to begin with.

I agree that rules are rules, and we must follow the rules of a property owner if we voluntarily wish to visit the property (with rare exceptions), or we otherwise subject ourselves to potential consequences.

With that said, I can understand guest frustrations with rules that are in place for - what can only be described as - purposes of profit. It is pretty silly to prohibit items at the gate that can be purchased a few yards beyond the gate after entering the park.

Most movie theaters have a "no outside food or drink" policy, which is commonly displayed on theater signage. But how many of us have never brought something edible into a movie theater before? :shrug: The only reason to exclude M&Ms from outside is to increase the buyer demand for M&Ms at an exponential cost at the theater concessions counter.

Speaking of which, at a recent movie that I went to, some younger gentlemen brought Subway sandwiches in with them. Unfortunately, they had onions on their subs, the smell of which drifted up a row to where I was sitting. :cry:

Side Note: has anyone found a DECENT butterbeer recipe? I prefer the frozen butterbeer.

If you don't mind booze...cream soda (I used plain old Public) with a shot of butterscotch schnapps. Then do your best to float half a shot or so of Pinnacle Whipped Cream vodka on top. If you want to get fancy, add a thin layer of ReddiWhip on top of that.

BTW, for spiking Butterbeer, I usually go with half butterscotch/half whipped, although I've used only whipped in the past, it does the job. Works better with frozen, the regular will foam up.

Minor or not, you're not allowed to smuggle outside alcohol into the park. You'll have to decide if taking that chance is worth it.

Couldn't you just buy your butterbeer & you shot of JD at the same time. Take a big swig out of the butterbeer then pour the JD in? No law broken. (As long as said person is of age to consume alcohol, that is.)

I, myself, am a pro-drinkee. I am going on my 1st Disney Cruise in 41 days and I plan to have some sort of blended, alcoholic drink with an umbrella and random slice of fruit in it every day I'm on vacation. :p
