Today I am sharing what has become my go to cocktail for the summertime! This martini just gives me summer vibes, on the beach, without a care in the world. Plus it’s so easy and quick to make and it taste amazing. I keep all the needed ingredients at my place year round and this drink never gets old!
Ingredients:
- 1.5 oz Absolute Juice Pear & Elderflower
- 1 oz lemon juice
- 1.5 oz simple syrup
- sliced pear
Fill the shaker with ice. Combine all ingredients. Shake really well.
Fill glass and garnish with a pear.
Drink and Enjoy!
Tricks and Tips
- So fun fact originally I made this drink with Absolut Pear and St. Germain. But my bestie saw this summer that Absolut has their own bottle that already combines the Absolut Pear and an elderflower liqueur together. St. Germain is an elderflower liqueur so its super amazing that you can now buy this in just one bottle!
- If you want it to be sweeter add more simple syrup. If you prefer a drink that is more tart add more lemon juice.
- If you are only making a cocktail for yourself then you obviously won’t need cut the whole pear. Squeeze some lemon juice over the inside of the pear and put the pear in a ziplock bag so it doesn’t change color immediately.
- I throw a mint leave on top for aesthetics but its totally not necessary. (Its just Ki being extra)
- Just like I mentioned on my Classic Margarita post, I would suggest investing in a shaker. I recently got this one from Target and its perfect because top has the measurement and serves as the jigger cap.
