A complete guide to staying cool at the Disneyland Resort, from classic Mickey ice cream bars and Flo’s milkshakes to DOLE Whip, the reimagined Black Caf Slushy, and Batuu’s blue and pink milk. Here are the best frozen treats, slushies, and cold-brew sips across Disneyland park and Disney California Adventure.

Summer at the Disneyland Resort calls for something cold in hand, and the chilled-treat lineup spanning Disneyland park and Disney California Adventure has rarely looked sweeter. From the timeless Mickey's Premium Ice Cream Bar to a freshly reimagined Black Caf Slushy tucked inside Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, this guide rounds up where to sip, swirl, and snack your way through the warmest months of the year.

Ice Cream, Sundaes, and Milkshakes

When the temperature climbs, few things pair better with a Southern California park day than ice cream. The resort spreads scoops, sundaes, sandwiches, and shakes across both gates, ranging from grab-and-go cart classics to sit-down soda-fountain indulgences.

Outdoor Vending Carts

The most classic summertime snacks live on the snack carts scattered throughout both parks. Longtime fans gravitate to the iconic Mickey's Premium Ice Cream Bar and ice cream sandwich, both easy to carry while strolling, alongside frozen bananas, popsicles, and chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwiches.

What to order: Mickey's Premium Ice Cream Bar, Mickey's Premium Ice Cream Sandwich, or a chocolate-dipped Frozen Banana.

Hosted by Dreyer's, Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlor brings old-fashioned soda-shop charm to Main Street, U.S.A. Specialty sundaes, floats, and hand-scooped cups and cones come dressed with sweet toppings, and the range of scoop and sundae sizes makes sharing easy for guests who feel generous.
