No trip to Disneyland or Disney World is complete without the purchase of a classic Dole Whip. If you’re not familiar with the Disney-exclusive treat, it’s a pineapple-flavored, soft-serve frozen dessert, and basically, it’s delicious, highly Instagrammable, and ultra refreshing in that Florida and California heat. But just when you thought the Dole Whip couldn’t get any better, it turns out Disney has been hiding a spice that complements the Whip’s flavors perfectly — and the best part is, it’s free.
As pointed out by the Disney Food Blog, free single-serve packets of Tajín Clásico Seasoning are available at the Tropical Imports snack stand in Adventureland. The blog notes that Tajín, which is a flavored with Mexican chiles, lime juice, and sea salt, is known for enhancing the flavors of fruit, making it a natural match for the fruity Dole Whip. After picking up your Tajín, head over to the Tiki Juice Bar (if you’re in Disneyland) or The Magic Kingdom (if you’re in Disney World), purchase your Dole Whip, generously sprinkle the Tajín on, and voilà!
The culinary whizzes at Disney Food Blog are not the only Disney fans to catch wind of the hack — a few photos of other fans’ attempts to spice up their Dole Whips can be found in the corners of the internet.
so this is a dole whip float with tajin on top and I didn’t know you could get tajin on top but you can and it’s delicious
And while the hack has actually been around for quite some time, the internet is just now catching wind of the trend. Many have taken to Twitter over the past few weeks to express their desire to try the simple food hack during their next visit to the Happiest Place on Earth.
Here’s hoping Disney starts keeping Tajín behind the same counters that serve Dole Whips — goodness knows we could use the extra time saved to wait in line for Space Mountain.
