Description

The Fuzzy Tauntaun is a Star Wars cocktail that was created at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, an attraction at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Orlando, Florida and Anaheim, California. Named for the animal that keeps Luke Skywalker warm in Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, the recipe is a essentially a slightly more elaborate Fuzzy Navel that calls for the classic’s template of orange juice and peach schnapps, but it splits the orange juice with tangerine, ups the booziness by adding peach vodka, and tops it all off with its wildcard ingredient—a lip-numbing foam made with buzz button flowers.
