REVIEW: New Chocolate Espresso R&D Martini at Pym Tasting Lab in Disney California Adventure

A new chocolate espresso drink is available at Pym Tasting Lab in Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure: R&D Martini.

R&D Martini – $19

Espresso Martini with Cereal-infused Milk, Dark Chocolate Espresso Beans & Cereal Crumbles

This tastes just like a chocolate martini should with a nice finish from the espresso. It reminds us of an adult chocolate milk. The alcohol comes through but not in an unpleasant way. It’s super creamy so great for the chillier weather today, but we may not want it on a hot day.

The cereal crumbles add some nice texture and chocolate notes that are a fun surprise. It reminds us of Cookie Crisp cereal with toffee.

Anyone who loves chocolate or coffee will enjoy this. It’s a nice new offering from Pym’s.

The R&D Martini isn’t the only new food and beverage offering at Avengers Campus this week. Several Guardians of the Galaxy-inspired items are now available celebrating the third film in the series.

Avengers Campus

After delays due to COVID-19, Avengers Campus finally opened at Disney California Adventure in June 2021. Another version of the land opened in Walt Disney Studios Park at Disneyland Paris in July 2022.

In California, Avengers Campus was constructed around Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: BREAKOUT!, a reskin of The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror that opened in 2017. WEB Slingers: A Spider-Man Adventure is at both versions of the land (known as Spider-Man WEB Adventure in Paris). Avengers Assemble: Flight Force, a retheme of Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, is unique to Walt Disney Studios Park.

“Rogers: The Musical” is coming to the Hyperion Theater at Disney California Adventure as a short, one-act performance for a limited time this summer. The teaser video showed a woman dressed much like Peggy Carter heading into the Hyperion Theater with a playbill for “Rogers: The Musical.” The show was first seen in the Disney+ series “Hawkeye.”

Hong Kong Disneyland has Stark Expo, featuring Iron Man Experience and Ant-Man and The Wasp: Nano Battle!
