Disney villains...what would our princesses and protaganists be without them? After all, Aladdin and Jasmine wouldn't be able to save the day if not for the dark and mischevious Jafar. All that villainy takes a lot of energy and we know there has to be a way for our favorite villains to relax after a hard day's work.

We like to think they gather at a pub and share stories of their failed conquests over refreshing drinks and hearty appetizers. Ursula is always cackling at the corner of the bar with a Sea Witch's Brew in hand and Hades tends to end his night passed out in a booth with a table-full of Blue Lagoons. We contacted the bar owner to find out the recipes for you and your friends so you can get a taste of what being a villain is like. Keep reading to find your favorite below!
