• Per your request, these are the ones I can think of off the top of my head:
• Coco: *spoiler* Hector takes a shot with his dying friend, Chicharron
• Beauty & the Beast : Gaston’s whole song takes place in a bar (don’t actually remember if they’re drinking)
• Sleeping Beauty : two kings get drunk before falling under sleeping spell, I think
• Tangled : also has a song in a bar, but not too sure they’re actually drinking in that one
• Pirates of the Caribbean: can’t remember a specific instance, but I assume rum is a thing in all of the films
