Club Cool (formerly Ice Station Cool) is an attraction located in Future World at Epcot at the Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, that allows people to cool off and sample complimentary Coca-Cola soft drinks from around the world. It is similar to the World of Coca-Cola's tasting area in Atlanta, Georgia, although the latter boasts a larger selection of products to taste (including both foreign and U.S. beverages). The gift shop at Club Cool also offers Coca-Cola merchandise for purchase.[1]
