Serves: 2 drinks
Ingredients
1 very ripe pear
3 oz bourbon
1 oz Justamere's maple syrup
½ oz lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla extract, or the seeds scraped from ⅓ of a vanilla bean
Justamere's Cinnamon Maple Sugar to top off
ice
Directions
Slice the pear in half. Scoop out any overly squishy pulp along with the seeds and stem. Roughly dice the pear and put it in a medium bowl. Mash the pear with a fork or a potato masher. Transfer the pear to a fine mesh strainer set over a wide mouthed measuring cup or another bowl. Press the pear pulp against the strainer to get as much of the juice out as possible, along with some of the pulp.
Once you have the pear juice, add the rest of the ingredients except for Cinnamon Maple Sugar, along with some ice, and stir vigorously to mix. Fill two glasses with more ice and divide the drink between them. Sprinkle with Cinnamon Maple Sugar! Enjoy!
