Make a delicious cocktail with this pear sauce, or swirl it with yogurt or ice cream. It's a great way to use overly ripe pears.
Ingredients
- 2 ripe pears
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp grated ginger
- 1/2 cup Sparkling Traminette
- 1 tsp Poire William pear liqueur
- 2 tsps gingered pear sauce (first three ingredients)
Directions
Make the pear sauce first. Peel, core, and coarsely chop 2 ripe pears. Cook them in a pan with sugar and ginger until soft. Cool and then purée until very smooth.
For the cocktail, pour Poire William liqueur into a champagne flute and add the pear sauce. Then add Sparkling Traminette. Garnish, if you like, with a sturdy slice of fresh pear dipped in lemon juice to prevent browning.
