Expert Recipe Tips

Use the good stuff

• When it comes to a cocktail that has so few ingredients, the key is to get good quality ingredients. You’ll notice the difference if you don’t.

Chill the glass 

• Chilling your serving glass before pouring the drink helps it stay cold longer. Just place it in the freezer or fridge for a bit before it’s time to drink.

Strain out the ice 

• We don’t want a watered-down martini. Adding the ice to the shaker and letting the liquid run out is the best method.

Add simple syrup for a sweeter taste

• If you prefer a sweeter martini, feel free to whip up some simple syrup and add that to taste.

How to Store

Fresh is definitely best, but if you don’t finish your martini on the same day, you can store it in the fridge for a day. Serve in a chilled glass and enjoy the same way you would on day one.

What to Serve with Your Pear Martini

Serve up your delicious concoction with fresh pear slices floating inside the glass or on the side as a snack. If you grow your own pear trees, make sure you incorporate some of your fresh fruit with this drink.

Whether you’re serving a summer salad or roasted pork, this martini will add the perfect flavor to your meal.
