Sippin Santa is a seasonal pop up bar located at Avanti Palms Hotel on International Drive. It opens 4pm-midnight every day. Monday nights they do an Ugly Sweater Contest at 8:30pm. They also show a Christmas movie every Wednesday night on repeat during the evening. All drinks have a specialty souvenir cup themed to that beverage. As you can see in the photos my drink is a Hawaiian Santa with a little Surf Board in the drink that says Sippin Santa. Everything inside the Avanti Lobby bar is decorated with Christmas lights and instagramable photo options. Now I went on opening night and it was pretty empty inside but I do think this is bar that will get busier closer to December and with word of mouth.
The drinks were festive and a little odd. I am not an adventurous drinker anyways so the drink I got was the only one that appealed to me. But I feel like people who love interesting flavors and appreciate mixology will love it. My drink had gingerbread mix inside it which was actually pretty cool because it was a fruit drink with pineapple juice but then you got the gingerbread flavor at the end of each sip. I also want to add that these drinks are STRONG. Like I said before I am not a drinker so it did take me awhile to finish this drink and my friend had to help me finish it. There is a 2 drink minimum at the bar as well so just keep that in mind if you are planning to go alone you do have to order two drinks. They do offer food, wine and beer so you don't have to get the Sippin Santa cocktails if you want to just go for the Christmas atmosphere. I do highly recommend checking out this bar if you want to get in the holiday spirit and it is open for all ages. You can bring the whole family and enter the ugly sweater contest or watch a Christmas movie together. Check out their website https://www.avantipalmsresort.com/sippin-santa.htm to get all the information and the address. It's a great way to end your theme park day or just to go hang out one evening as a local wanting to do something different.
Love Always,
