Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whip the Egg Whites
In a clean mixing bowl, whip the 4 egg whites on medium speed until frothy.
Add Sugar Gradually
Gradually add 1 cup of granulated sugar, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form and the mixture is glossy.
Incorporate Cornstarch and Vinegar
Gently fold in 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, 1 teaspoon of white vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of Earl Grey tea leaves until well combined.
Shape the Meringue
Spoon the meringue mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping it into a large circle with a slight well in the center.
Bake the Meringue
Bake for 1 hour, then turn off the oven and let the meringue cool completely inside the oven.
Pears Preparation
Slice the Pears
Peel, core, and slice the 3 pears into thin slices.
Mix with Honey and Lemon Juice
In a bowl, toss the pear slices with 1 tablespoon of campfire honey and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Let sit for 10 minutes.
Condensed Milk Syrup Preparation

In a small saucepan over low heat, combine 1 cup of sweetened condensed milk and 2 tablespoons of Frey Ranch 'Pedregal' single barrel rye.
