Chill a coupe or martini glass in the freezer while you prepare the cocktail.
If desired, rim the chilled glass with sugar for a touch of extra sweetness.
Add the pear vodka, ginger liqueur, fresh lemon juice, pear nectar, and simple syrup to a shaker.
Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously until well chilled.
Strain into the chilled coupe or martini glass.
Garnish with a thin pear slice and a lemon twist
Pro Tips
- Chill the glass first. A cold glass keeps the cocktail at its best temperature longer.
- Taste before adding all the syrup. Pear nectar and ginger liqueur already contain sweetness, so you may not need the full amount.
- Use freshly squeezed lemon juice. Fresh citrus gives the drink a cleaner, sharper acidity.
