Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is going to be full of delicious food and drinks, but one familiar soda is getting a Star Wars makeover.
When guests walk into Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge they can sample infamous Star Wars drinks like Blue Milk and Moof Juice, but sometimes something more familiar is wanted. Cue Disney’s partnership with The Coca-Cola Company.
Coke products are sold throughout the Disney parks and resorts, and now they are being transformed into something out of this galaxy. The partnership has allowed Coke products including Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, Sprite and Dasani water to be reimagined as something right from the Star Wars universe.
Every bottle of soda and water will have newly created labels, that for the first time will feature Aurebesh, the written language of Star Wars, as the presented language. The bottles the drinks will go in have also been redesigned to look like thermal detonators, using a orb-shaped bottom and intricate silver lid.

Small details like theming of soda labels really do help bring a new land to life. By having all of the drinks in-universe it helps enhance the feel actually being on the edge of the galaxy with the Resistance.
Just like you cannot buy Mickey ice cream bars inside Pandora: The World of Avatar because the Navi would not know what those are, Coke products don’t “exist” in the Star Wars universe, so Coke and Walt Disney Imagineering made sure the bottles and labels looked like they would belong inside Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
The bottles are going to be more of a novelty item for people entering Galaxy’s Edge, and something familiar in a land filled with unfamiliar food and drink options. We’re sure we’ll be seeing these all over Instagram as soon as the new land opens.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opens at the Disneyland Resort Friday on May 31, and at the Walt Disney World Resort Thursday on August 29.
