Notes

Pro Tips

These small tips further enhance the flavor of your spiced pear cocktail. They’re easy changes that make the drink smoother, brighter, or more balanced.
  • Shake for longer than usual, as the pear juice benefits from extra chilling.
  • Use fresh ginger slices instead of bottled for a better flavor.
  • Chill your glass first for a smoother drinking experience.
  • Add a little extra nutmeg if you like a warmer spice note.
  • Swap in cinnamon for a deeper holiday feel.
  • Choose clear ice for a cleaner presentation at parties.
  • Taste as you go because the sweetness of pear juice varies.
These ideas make the drink versatile, allowing you to experiment until you find the version you enjoy most.
