Here is another classic Carthay Circle favorite I found on the ohmy.disney.com blog. The Double Pear Martini is a very light and sweet pear cocktail that if you haven't tried you need to. This is the perfect cocktail on a hot day while relaxing in the cool dark Carthay Circle Lounge.
The Double Pear Martini:
- 1 ounce Double Cross vodka
- 1 ounce Absolut Pears vodka
- 1 ounce Kern’s Pear Nectar
- 1/2 ounce fresh lime juice
- 1/4 ounce Monin agave nectar
- Garnish: 1 Chilean baby Pear
Pour all ingredients into a mixing glass. Add ice and shake for 10 seconds. Strain into a chilled martini glass and garnish with a Chilean baby Pear.
Since the parks have been closed Disneyland has been publishing some of their delicious and popular recipes online. I stumbled across their Manhattan recipe from Carthay Circle in DCA and it is one of the best I have had. So I wanted to share. Enjoy!
The Carthay Manhattan:
- 2 Oz Rye Whiskey (If you don’t have Rye Whiskey, you can use Bourbon or blended Whiskey)
- 1/2 Oz Sweet Vermouth
- 3 dashes of bitters
- Garnish (A cherry, usually)
Stir it with some ice and then strain it into a lowball glass.
