Friday Shake Up! Pear & Eau de Vie cocktail

Pear and Eau de Vie Cocktail

Total Time: 30 mins
Serves: 4

Ingredients

1 ripe pear
1 lemon juiced
75ml Eau de Vie by Paracombe Premium Perry
25ml hazelnut liqueur
handful of ice
500ml basket pressed pear juice by Paracombe Premium Perry

Instructions

Put the pear through a spiralizer to create long spaghetti-like strands. If you don’t have a spiralizer, slice the pear into thin ribbons with a vegetable peeler, then cut the ribbons into thinner strips.
Line up 4 tumblers and put 3-4 strands of pear in each one. Divide the lemon juice between the glasses to coat the pear strands and stop them discolouring while you make the cocktail.
Pour the Eau de Vie and hazelnut liqueur into a cocktail shaker. Add a handful of ice and shake until the outside of the cocktail shaker starts to frost, then strain into the glasses. Top with the pressed pear juice divided between the 4 glasses.
