Disney Food At Home: Mint Juleps and Loaded Buffalo Chicken Tots

 Next up for our Disney dining at home was some Loaded Buffalo Chicken Tots and a kid friendly Mint Julep.  

The Mint Julep Bar is located in New Orleans Square at Disneyland in California.  This is where you can find the non-alcoholic mint juleps as well as some delicious fresh Mickey beignets.  I've enjoyed the beignets from this location, but sadly did not try the mint julep at any of my stops here.  Now that I've tried this homemade one, I can say I am definitely putting this on my must try list the next time I'm at Disneyland!

After enjoying the mint julep, we had Loaded Buffalo Chicken Tots for dinner.  These can be found at the Friar's Nook at Walt Disney World.  We honestly don't remember ever seeing these on the menu before, and this is something that 3 out of 4 of us would totally order while at Walt Disney World.  In fact, 1 out of 4 of us didn't even try these tots when they were made (spoiler alert: it was me - I don't like the "buffalo" flavor).  But these tots were apparently excellent and a good substitute if I wouldn't order wings for dinner!  It is now on our must taste list as well.  I swear this must taste and must try list gets bigger and bigger before every trip!

A fun fact about the Friar's Nook: if you take a look at the Roman Numeral establishment date, you'll see MLXXI, which is 1071.  This is a little Easter Egg nod to the month and year in which Magic Kingdom opened... October (10), 1971 (71)!  How fun is that!

If you have tried either of these before, drop a note and let me know what you thought!  Thanks for watching!
