Galactic Starcruiser space cocktails land at Oga’s Cantina in Disneyland

A pair of interstellar cocktails once served aboard the failed $350 million Galactic Starcruiser at Walt Disney World can now be ordered at Oga’s Cantina in Disneyland if you never made it to the star-crossed Star Wars hotel or still long for a liquid reminder of your $5,000 voyage.

The Star Wars-themed cocktails are available through June 2 during the Season of the Force seasonal event at the wretched hive of scum and villainy in the Anaheim theme park.

We’re trying out two new cocktails over at Oga’s Cantina at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland, the Silver Sea Martini that comes with a souvenir Chandrilan Chalice and the Fiery Mustafarian that comes with a souvenir Chandrilan Orb Glass.

I ordered the Silver Sea Martini in the Chandrilan Chalice ($30) and the Fiery Mustafarian in the Chandrilan Orb ($35) and found one to be better than I expected and the other to be increasingly undrinkable.

The Chandrilan in the name of the Galactic Starcruiser drinks refers to the Chandrila Star Line that operated the Halcyon starcruiser — the intergalactic cruise ship central to the backstory of the Star Wars hotel that closed in 2023 after just over a year in operation.

I love lemonade — so I was intrigued by the Silver Sea Martini in the Chandrilan Chalice. The gin-based drink has a lemonade base with butterfly pea flower tea, honey, ginger syrup and mint syrup.

The butterfly pea flower tea gave the cocktail a purple color that looked otherworldly atop the internally lit bar in the Outer Rim spaceport cantina.

A big part of the experience at Oga’s Cantina is the feeling of stepping into a Star Wars movie. I can’t imagine Han Solo ever ordering a drink in a Chandrilan Chalice, but I could see myself sipping one aboard the Galactic Starcruiser.

That’s not the case with the Fiery Mustafarian in the Chandrilan Orb. I’ll never order the peach-flavored tequila-based drink again.

The Fiery Mustafarian is all about the gimmick of adding spicy lava syrup to your cocktail using a dropper that looks like a cigar tube. The idea is you can adjust the spice level to your taste with the dropper. But really what you are doing is adjusting the sweetness level — the more drops, the sweeter it gets. And once you’ve gone too far, there’s no going back.

I find most of the drinks served in Oga’s — and at Disneyland in general — to be far too sweet for me. So the notion of making my drink increasingly sweeter is unappealing. The spicy lava syrup gets its spice from ghost peppers — so with the increasing sweetness comes an increasing spiciness. That’s not what I’m looking for in a drink either.

At least you get to take the souvenir glasses home with you as a reminder of your visit to Oga’s Cantina — and the crash-and-burn fate of the Galactic Starcruiser.

Next time I go to Oga’s I’ll stick with my go-to order — the Fuzzy Tauntaun with peach vodka, peach schnapps and an orange and tangerine juice base. I love the signature mouth-numbing effect of the frothy foam top.
