Our own Chef BigFatPanda is back with a thirst-quenching new drink recipe inspired by one of our favorite Disney rides!
As you know, Chef’s DIY Disney column here on the Disney Food Blog provides us with easy directions to make recipes that remind us of our laughing place. His latest concoction continues his series of unique magical drinks for at-home sipping. This drink will bring out your adventurous side for exploring higher elevations!
The Expedition Everest
Using a tall glass or mug:
1. Place 2 Maraschino Cherries at the bottom
2. Fill the glass up to the brim with shaved ice
3. Liberally, pour on some Blue Raspberry Vodka or Blue Alcohol of your choice
Blue Raspberry Vodka
(If your ice melts some, add more and repeat)
Top it with a tall Whipped Cream Peak
Snowy peaks!
When your guest has completed their expedition, they will see the red glowing eyes of the Yeti!
Glowing eyes?
(We made sure our cherries did not move so that we could be consistent with the condition of the current Yeti 🙂 )
Enjoy!

Why don’t have have blue raspberry vodka and whipped cream in my fridge!
Could always add a blinking glow cube for a Disco Yeti effect. 😉
Deej – You Should!
Sarah! That’s a GREAT idea – go for it and send us some pics 🙂
Also – as AJ pointed out, this could also be called the MATTERHORN 🙂
If you are afraid of EE, drink before the ride.
When you get off, drink in celebration.
For a challenge, drink during.
AAAAAH! Do not drink before the ride! If you think that backwards section is bad BEFORE alcohol, just wait until after! AAAAAH! 😉
Oh, come on, AJ. A little booze before a coaster never hurt anyone! 😉
But this is not a “little booze”!
Sarah — Ha ha! My stomach says otherwise (especially after two rides on EE!) 😉
Erin — Hee hee!
I second the glowing ice cube!
Liquor before a coaster is HIGHLY recommended no matter what the interesting and fun consequences 🙂
LOVE your last line. This looks yummy, but not for drinking on the same day you’re riding.
Love it! I think I’ve got all of these ingredients on hand, too….I know what i’m drinking tomorrow night! Heck, I’ve even got a glowing ice cube around here somewhere…
Congratulations Chef – I cannot imagine a more clever way to honor a Disney attraction and get a nice shot of alcohol at the same time. This could lead to a new craze of inventing unique drinks to go with the great Disney rides.
Erin – thank you – let’s try it sometime but not too much alcohol and we’ll ride over n over 🙂
Lenore – Let me know how it goes over
Alan – Thanks so much, that’s what I’m hoping for – they will all be here on the DisneyFoodBlog and I’ll soon link magicaldrinks.com to here 🙂
Coming soon: Mrs. Potts drink MMMmm – your gonna like this one
