1
Infuse the Vodka
In a clean glass jar, combine the Gray Duck vodka, sliced pears, and fresh sage leaves. Seal the jar tightly and let it infuse in a cool, dark place for 3-5 days, shaking gently every day to mix the ingredients.
2
Strain the Infusion
After the infusion period, strain the vodka through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bottle to remove the solids. Discard the solids and set the infused vodka aside.

3
Mix the Gimlet
In a cocktail shaker, combine 60 ml of the infused vodka, 60 ml of elderflower liqueur, 30 ml of fresh lime juice, and 15 ml of simple syrup.
4
Shake with Ice
Add ice cubes to the shaker, cover it with the lid, and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.
5
Strain into Glass
Strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass.

6
Garnish the Drink
Float 2 fresh sage leaves and 2 pear slices on top of the drink for garnish. Serve immediately.
