Equipment

First, grab a shaker for mixing everything well.
A jigger will help with measuring the ingredients accurately.
I like using a strainer so that my cocktail is smooth and free of any pulp or seeds.

You’ll also need a cutting board and knife to slice up your garnishes.
Finally, a short glass or tumbler is perfect for serving this lovely drink.

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this cocktail taste just right:

1.5 oz of tequila
1 oz of pear juice
0.5 oz of lime juice
0.5 oz cinnamon syrup
Ice cubes
Pear slices for garnish
Cinnamon stick to top it off

I like to use fresh pear juice for a more natural flavor, but bottled works too!

Instructions

First, add ice to your shaker to chill everything down.

Pour in the tequila, then add pear juice and lime juice.
Next, splash in the cinnamon syrup.
Put the lid on the shaker and give it a good shake.

Shake it until the outside feels cold, which usually takes about 15 seconds.
Then, strain the mix into your glass filled with ice.

Top with a pear slice and cinnamon stick. Cheers! 🍐

Notes

Adjust the cinnamon syrup to your liking. More syrup means a sweeter drink. I like tasting my cocktail along the way and keeping my syrup on the lighter side for a refreshing sip.

If you want an extra kick, try using reposado tequila. It adds a smoky flavor. You can also try rimming your glass with ground cinnamon and sugar for an extra festive look! Do share your thoughts in the comments! 🍸

First, I noticed the sweet and juicy taste of pear. This gives the drink a fresh and light flavor. The cinnamon adds a warm spice that feels cozy and comforting. It blends perfectly with the pear’s sweetness.

The tangy lime juice adds a zesty twist that refreshes the palate. It’s the perfect contrast to the sweetness of the pear and the warm spice of the cinnamon. The lime keeps the drink from being too sweet.
