Disney Cruise Doles Out $5,000 Cocktail For A Taste Of ‘Galaxy’s Rarest’

Earlier this month, Disney unveiled its latest cruise ship, The Wish, featuring a first-of-its-kind interactive storytelling journey, a cinematic dining experience inspired by the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and an immersive Stars Wars experience. 

Just a word of caution: if you’re thinking of dining at the Star Wars Hyperspace Lounge, it’ll come in handy to keep a chunk of change with you. Especially if you’re thinking of ordering what could be the most expensive Star Wars-themed menu item ever: the US$5,000 Kaiburr Crystal cocktail.

Yup, five grand. According to a tweet by journalist Ashley Carter, who had a first look at the amenities on board the ship, guests can choose to shell out the big bucks for what Disney is calling “the galaxy’s rarest” drink. 

To justify the incredible price tag, the cocktail doesn’t come in a regular glass but is served in a camtono, which, according to Gizmodo, is a bounty hunter accessory that has been featured on The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett. 

It’s unclear what exactly makes up the concoction, but we’re willing to venture that even in a galaxy far, far away, not many people are dropping US$5,000 on a night out, let alone a single drink.
