Epcot's first rest and relaxation D-Zone area is now open in the Innoventions corridor behind Character Spot.

The corridor, which has long been a favorite spot for guests to take a break, is now equipped with tables and chairs, and a kiosk offering snacks and drinks. Along with soft drinks, there are alcoholic beverages and frozen drinks.

The D-Zone relaxation area concept began at Magic Kingdom with the introduction of the Fantasyland Tangled restroom area, and the big top area in Storybook Circus. The idea is for for people to have a space to cool down, charge the all-important devices, and to take a break from some of the hustle and bustle of the park.

They are frozen because they are crushed ice slushie drinks.

Got to keep that Drunkytown narrative alive!
So...if they add in some more comfortable seating options, a dozen or so charge ports for cell phones, a permanent small refreshment counter, some nice music, what's not to love?....and that is great, but now lets add some attractions too...there is a whole world showcase out there that was supposed to have attractions that were never built.... Build some of them already....

Exactly! You've just described a nice mall! Without real attractions all this means very little.

Do you really believe they don't intentionally use the word frozen as much as they can?
↩ replying to bhg469
In this case I think it is NOT intentional to link these drinks with the movie, Frozen is just a descriptive word of the state of the drinks. Compare this to the menu for the frozen summer fun at DHS (http://www.disneyfoodblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Frozen_Drink_Menu.jpg) where all the drinks have names based on the movie, but don't mention the word Frozen.

I get it, there is no indication that this was a tie in to the movie but weren't these drinks specific to the frozen celebration last year?
↩ replying to bhg469
So, if I may be so bold, your saying that because a beverage is frozen, that means Disney is using it to market Frozen?

Do you know why Chip n Dale were meeting inside there? Was it raining or is this their new spot for meets?
↩ replying to Chef Kronk
Yes rain location.
Eh, fairly unimpressive tbh. Is there at least USB charging ports installed?
What....is...that? Did anyone put any effort into that at all? Geeze

Looks like all they did was set up some tables lol.
