Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 3-4 slices pear I cut a pear quarter into slices
  • 1-2 sprigs thyme
  • 1/4 tsp ground Cardamom 
  • 1/2 ounce maple
  • 1 ounce lemon freshly juiced
  • 2 ounce Natural Grapefruit Soda I used Jarritos
  • 1.5 ounce clear spirit of choice optional

Method
 

  1. Place pear, cardamom, thyme, and maple in a cocktail shaker. Muddle the ingredients together, breaking down the pear and expressing the thyme into the maple.
  2. Add freshly juiced lemon and ice. If you wish, you can add a clear spirit of your choice (nonalcoholic like Lyres, or alcoholic for cocktail enjoyers). Shake.
  3. Strain over crushed ice into desired glass (I shaved my ice down by putting it into a blender). Top with 2 ounces of natural grapefruit soda.
  4. Garnish with a full pear slice and thyme sprig.
