Asian Pear Sparkler

 

INGREDIENTS

​

  • 1 cup freshly pressed Asian pear juice

  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

  • 3/4 cup honey

  • 1/4 cup sugar

  • 1 (4-inch) sprig fresh rosemary

  • 1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and cut into coins

  • Small grating of fresh nutmeg

  • Ice

  • Soda water

​

Directions:

  1. In a saucepan over medium heat, mix pear juice, lemon juice, honey, sugar, rosemary, ginger, and nutmeg. Heat the mixture until it reaches a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure the sugars dissolve.

  2. Take the pan off the heat and let the mixture sit for 30 minutes. Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the solids, then set the syrup aside to cool completely.

  3. To prepare, fill an 8-ounce glass halfway with ice. Add 3 tablespoons of the syrup and top with soda water. Stir well. Adjust the sweetness or intensity by adding more syrup as desired.

Simmer this mixture to let the spices infuse, and you'll have a fragrant, warming, and subtly spiced cider that's easy to make and naturally sweet. This version is excellent for those looking for a healthier alternative without sacrificing flavor​
