Smoked Pear Cocktail

Season’s Delight

Inspired by fall’s flavors during the holidays, it is the perfect drink to enjoy as you warm yourself in front of a welcoming fire with friends and family. 

The mezcal provides a slight smokiness that pulls together the herbal notes of the Averna, as well as the spice of the pear liqueur. Lemon and egg white help give a light silkiness that rounds out this perfect fall cocktail.  

Ingredients:

  • 1 oz 400 Conejos Joven Oaxaca Mezcal
  • 3/4 oz St. George Spiced Pear Liqueur
  • 1/2 oz Averna Amaro
  • 3/4 oz fresh lemon juice
  • 3/4 oz simple syrup
  • 1 egg white
