Pear And Ginger Martini Cocktail Recipe
I love creating a refreshing cocktail, and this Pear and Ginger Martini is one of my favorites! It's made with fresh pear juice and a kick of ginger for a unique twist. ππΈ Let me walk you through how to make it.
Equipment
- You'll also need a muddler or a spoon, a cutting board, and a knife for preparing the ingredients.
- I also keep a citrus juicer handy for squeezing any fresh lemons or limes. They add a burst of flavor to the cocktail.
- Make sure your glassware is clean and chilled before serving for the best experience.
Ingredients
Gather the following ingredients:
- 1 ripe pear peeled and sliced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger grated
- 2 ounces vodka
- 1 ounce pear liqueur
- Β½ ounce simple syrup
- Β½ ounce fresh lemon juice
- Ice
These ingredients blend together perfectly. The ripe pear adds a sweet flavor, and the ginger gives it a spicy edge. π Using fresh ingredients makes a huge difference in taste!
Instructions
- Muddle the pear and ginger: In your shaker, combine sliced pear and grated ginger. Muddle them until they are well mashed.
- Add liquids: Pour in vodka, pear liqueur, simple syrup, and lemon juice.
- Shake it up: Fill the shaker with ice, cover, and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds. This mixes the flavors nicely.
- Strain and serve: Strain into a chilled martini glass. You can garnish with a pear slice or a twist of lemon for extra flair.
This cocktail is not just refreshing but also super easy to make!
Notes
Freshness is key: Always use fresh ginger and pear for the best taste.
Simple syrup: If you donβt have store-bought, make your own by dissolving sugar in hot water.
Adjust sweetness: Tweak the simple syrup amount to match your taste preference. If you like it sweeter, add a little more.
