Good friends introduced me to a new kind of cocktail one night. We did the dinner and they surprised us with the drink. It is a Cointreau based cocktail which was fun for me as I am not so familiar with this liquor. I thought it was delicious, but have tweaked it a bit by replacing the sparkling water with Prosecco….what can I say?

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 ½ oz (50ml) Cointreau
  • 1 ½ oz (50ml) pear juice
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Prosecco, for topping
  • Cinnamon stick for garnish

INSTRUCTIONS

Add the Cointreau, pear juice and lime juice to a shaker filled with ice. Shake it well. Pour into a short tumbler with some ice in it. Top with some prosecco and drop in a cinnamon stick for serving. The cinnamon stick may seem like an extravagant touch for a garnish but I am telling you that it is essential! The smell of the cinnamon as you sip the sparkling pear concoction is divine….just divine!
