Ginger Pear Fizz Mocktail Recipe

What I like about this drink is how the pear’s sweetness balances out the spicy ginger.\
Add some bubbles, and it’s instantly more refreshing—plus, it’s super easy to throw together at home.

Equipment

• Cocktail shaker or just a jar with a lid (gets the job done)
• Measuring jigger or small measuring cups
• Bar spoon or any long spoon for stirring
• Citrus juicer for quick lemon juice
• Fine mesh strainer if you’re into a smoother texture
• Tall glass or highball glass for serving
• Ice scoop or just a regular spoon for the ice
• Knife and cutting board for pear slices

Having the right tools honestly just makes things less messy and way faster.\
I like using a shaker to really mix the pear and lemon juice, and a strainer is nice if you want your drink super smooth.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup pear juice or pear nectar
• 1/4 cup sparkling pear juice or sparkling water
• 1/2 cup ginger beer (non-alcoholic)
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional, but cozy)
• 1/2 cup crushed ice
• Fresh pear slices for garnish

Pear nectar makes it a little thicker and sweeter, which I like when I’m in the mood for a richer drink.\
If you want something lighter, go with regular pear juice.

Sparkling pear juice adds more fruitiness, but sparkling water is fine if you want it less sweet.\
Ginger beer brings the fizz and a spicy kick, and lemon juice cuts through the sweetness just right.

Instructions

• Fill your shaker halfway with crushed ice.
• Pour in the pear juice (or nectar) and fresh lemon juice.
• Toss in a pinch of cinnamon if you’re feeling it.
• Shake gently for about 10 seconds—no need to go crazy.
• Strain into a tall glass packed with more crushed ice.
• Top with ginger beer and sparkling pear juice or water.
• Give it a light stir with your bar spoon.
• Pop a thin pear slice on the rim for garnish.

Shaking the juice and lemon together first just makes the flavors blend better, at least in my experience.\
I always add the ginger beer last so the fizz stays nice and lively.

Notes

Sometimes I swap between pear nectar and juice depending on how sweet I want it.\
Nectar’s richer, juice is lighter—just depends on the mood.

If you’re not into a strong ginger flavor, use less ginger beer and add more sparkling water.\
Or, if you’re all about the ginger, double up on the ginger beer and skip the water.

Serving it super cold with lots of crushed ice is key, honestly.\
And if you’re going for a cozy twist, a cinnamon stick or star anise as a garnish is pretty great too.

Tasting Notes

The first sip? It’s crisp and honestly pretty refreshing. That pear brings a soft sweetness—not too heavy, just enough.

There’s this gentle warmth from the ginger that sort of lingers in the background. The fizz keeps things light and bubbly, so it never gets cloying.

I find the ginger really balances out the fruitiness. It keeps the flavor from falling flat, which is something I always look for.

As I keep sipping, I notice layers. Pear jumps out first, then the ginger sneaks in, and finally the sparkling water kind of ties everything up.

It’s smooth, but there’s still a little bite from the ginger. I actually love that combo; it feels bright but not harsh.

The aroma? That’s a whole other thing. The pear smells super fresh and clean, and there’s this subtle spicy note from the ginger that just makes me want to take another sip.
