In the sun-drenched heart of California, where culinary artistry meets vibrant culture, tennis star Taylor Fritz and his girlfriend, influencer Morgan Riddle, recently embarked on a gastronomic adventure at the 2025 Disney California Adventure Food & Wine Festival. Held from February 28 to April 21 at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, the festival transformed the park into a haven for foodies, showcasing inventive dishes and bold flavors. Among the highlights was a rare and enchanting ingredient—a “mythical” fruit that captivated the couple and left festival-goers buzzing with excitement.
Fritz, the World No. 4 tennis player, and Riddle, a social media sensation known for her vibrant tennis WAG content, took a break from the court to immerse themselves in the festival’s offerings. The event, now in its celebrated run, featured over 80 unique food and beverage items, with a special emphasis on California’s rich culinary heritage. From artisanal cocktails to plant-based delicacies, the festival promised something for every palate, but it was the elusive “mythical” fruit that stole the show. Described as a vibrant, jewel-toned berry with a sweet-tart profile, this rare ingredient—sourced from a small, sustainable farm in California’s Central Valley—was woven into dishes that sparked curiosity and delight.
The couple’s festival journey began at the Uncork California booth, where they sampled a dazzling California wine cocktail. The drink, a blend of white wine, gin, peach purée, lemon juice, and blue curaçao syrup, was garnished with a shimmering piece of blue rock candy and a single, glistening mythical berry. “I’ve never tasted anything like it,” Riddle shared on her Instagram story, her eyes sparkling as she held up the vibrant drink. “It’s like a burst of sunshine with this mysterious, tangy kick!” Fritz, standing beside her, grinned and added, “I’m not usually a cocktail guy, but this one’s a game-changer. That fruit—it’s unreal.”
Their culinary exploration didn’t stop there. The couple ventured to the festival’s Golden Dreams booth, where chefs had crafted a dessert featuring the mythical fruit in a silky panna cotta topped with a berry coulis. The dish, presented with edible flowers and a dusting of gold leaf, was as much a feast for the eyes as it was for the taste buds. Fritz, known for his disciplined athlete’s diet, couldn’t resist indulging. “Morgan’s the foodie in this relationship,” he admitted with a laugh, “but this dessert? I’m sold. It’s like the fruit tells a story in every bite.”
Riddle, ever the storyteller, documented their experience for her millions of followers, weaving her signature blend of glamour and authenticity. Her posts highlighted not only the food but also the festival’s lively atmosphere—live music, colorful décor, and the joy of sharing a meal with loved ones. “This place is magic,” she captioned a photo of her and Fritz clinking glasses under a canopy of twinkling lights. “The flavors, the vibes, the mythical fruit—it’s all unforgettable.”
Beyond the culinary delights, the festival offered a chance for Fritz and Riddle to unwind amid a challenging tennis season. Fritz, who recently withdrew from the BMW Open in Munich due to an oblique muscle injury, has been navigating a tough 2025. Riddle, his steadfast supporter since 2020, has been by his side through every setback, bringing her fresh perspective to the tennis world. Their appearance at the festival was a rare moment of respite, a chance to savor life’s simple pleasures. “Taylor’s been through a lot this year,” Riddle shared in a
