What Is a Pear Martini?
A Pear Martini is a vodka cocktail flavored with pear fruit served with a pear slice as a garnish. A classic martini is made with vermouth and vodka or gin and usually garnished with an olive or lemon twist. For the pear flavor, a Pear Martini features pear-infused vodka and pear juice or pureed pears. You can also add pear nectar or pear simple syrup. A spritz of fresh lemon juice, lime juice, elderflower liqueur, ginger liqueur, or bitters can give the pear cocktail an additional depth of flavor.
