Ingredients

  • 2 oz pear-and-spice-infused vodka
  • 1 oz pear nectar juice
  • 1 oz Cointreau
  • Sugar for rimming
  • Pear slice for garnish

Instructions

  • Start by filling a cocktail shaker with ice.
  • Add the pear-infused vodka, pear nectar juice, and Cointreau to the shaker.
  • Secure the lid and shake vigorously until the shaker feels icy cold in your hands.
  • Prepare the glass by placing a small amount of sugar on a plate. Rub a lemon wedge along the rim of your martini glass, then gently press the rim into the sugar to coat it.
  • Strain the contents of the shaker into the prepared glass.
  • Finish with a garnish of either a lemon wedge or a slice of pear. Sip and enjoy!

Notes

Pro Tips
  • To elevate the pear flavor, consider using a pear-infused simple syrup.
  • For a more pronounced spice kick, add a pinch of ground cinnamon or nutmeg to the shaker before mixing.
  • Ensure your martini glass is chilled for a more refreshing sip.
