Pears Ginger
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.7 / 5
The Pears Ginger cocktail is a refreshing mix that combines the sweet and slightly floral notes of pear vodka with the zesty kick of lime juice, all softened by the gentle fizz of ginger ale. This drink is typically served in a highball glass, which allows for a generous amount of ice to keep the cocktail chilled. With a flavor profile that balances fruitiness with the spicy warmth of ginger, this beverage is well-suited for those who enjoy a slightly sweet, yet tangy refreshment. The Pears Ginger is an inviting option for a laid-back afternoon or as a light accompaniment to a meal.
