It’s likely that if you’ve eaten breakfast at a resort while on a Disney vacation, you have been offered POG juice. And chances are if you have tried POG juice, you are among the club who craves its unique flavor while you are at home daydreaming about your next trip to the “Most Magical Place on Earth.” So, what exactly is POG juice? “POG” stands for Passion Fruit, Orange, and Guava. These tropical flavors unite to form a delicious and refreshing beverage that tastes like “vacation.”
POG juice is on the menu at several Disney locations, but it also appears under other aliases. Have you ever drank “Stitch Juice” or “Jungle Juice”? If so, then you have also drank POG juice! They are one in the same, just identified as a different name to better fit the theming of the restaurant. Below is a list of places where guests may be able to find POG juice while on their Disney trip. Menus are always subject to change and availability of items, but even if you don’t see POG Juice on the menu, that doesn’t mean it isn’t stocked at their beverage station, so be sure to inquire!
- Tusker House in Animal Kingdom Park – as Jungle Juice
- Boma in Animal Kingdom Lodge – as Jungle Juice
- Ohana in Polynesian Resort – could be named “Stitch Juice” when character dining returns for breakfast
- Kona Café in Polynesian Resort – as Liliko’i Juice
- Trail’s End at The Campsites of Wilderness Lodge – POG juice served in Pioneer Mimosa. Request without alcohol for underage guests!
- Cape May Café in Beach Club
- Topolino’s Terrace at Riviera Resort
- Disney Aulani Resort – various stands and restaurants

Recipe Notes
- Passion Fruit and Guava juices are often bottled with other juices and sold as a “tropical” blend. Look in the aisle for “international” food in your local grocery store. I was able to locate pure passion fruit and guava juice next to the ingredients for tacos.
- Choose pulp-free orange juice for a smooth blend or use freshly squeezed orange juice if you prefer the pulp
- Pouring over ice cuts the sweetness just enough to make this beverage more refreshing.
- For a smaller or single portion, simply use a 1:1:1 ratio for all 3 juices.
- Serve with an orange slice and paper umbrella for embellishment!
