Sip, Savor, and Scream: Trying the Screaming Berry and Darkmoor Black Wings at Epic Universe
During our latest visit to Universal Orlando’s Epic Universe, we ventured into the shadows of Dark Universe and discovered a deliciously eerie treat: the Screaming Berry soda! This exclusive flavor, available only in Dark Universe, is one of Epic Universe’s special Coca-Cola Freestyle offerings — and it’s well worth seeking out.

We found the Screaming Berry tucked inside the Freestyle machines at Das Stakehaus, but don’t worry — it’s also available at other Freestyle stations around Dark Universe. The flavor? Sweet, fruity, and surprisingly refreshing — the perfect drink to wash down a hauntingly good meal.
Speaking of meals, while at Das Stakehaus, we paired our Screaming Berry soda with the Darkmoor Black Wings — a must-try for spice lovers. These wings are dusted with spicy chili seasoning, topped with smoky cheddar, charred scallions, and drizzled with a flavorful soy chili garlic sauce. Though the portion wasn’t huge, each wing packed a punch with bold, balanced flavors and was cooked perfectly.

Adding a little extra magic to the meal, the wings come with a pimento cornbread skull on the side — a fun and tasty touch — along with a cool, crisp coleslaw that helped temper the heat from the wings.
This is actually the second park-exclusive Coca-Cola Freestyle flavor we’ve been lucky enough to try at Epic Universe. On our previous visit, we fell in love with the Celestial Spritz in Celestial Park — a bright, orange-flavored soda that’s both balanced and refreshing.
