Method

Cocktail

1

Chill glass

Place a coupe or martini glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill with ice water while you prepare the cocktail to chill it.

2

Add 2 oz Absolut Pear Vodka, 2 oz pear nectar, 0.75 oz fresh lemon juice, and 0.5 oz simple syrup to a cocktail shaker.

3

Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup) and cap it. Shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is frosty and the mixture is well chilled.

4

Discard ice or water from the chilled glass. Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or martini glass using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer to remove any small ice shards or pulp.

5

Taste and adjust: if you prefer it sweeter, add 0.25 oz simple syrup and stir briefly; if you prefer brighter citrus, add an additional 0.25 oz lemon juice and shake again with a little ice then re-strain.

Garnish

6

Thread a thin pear slice onto the rim or float it gently on the surface of the cocktail.

7

Optional: Express a lemon twist over the drink by holding the twist over the cocktail and giving it a quick bend so the oils spray across the surface, then drop the twist into the glass or rest it on the rim.

8

Serve immediately.
