Servings: 4
Skill Level: Easy
Ingredients
- 2 ripe pears, peeled and cored
- 4 sprigs of fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons honey (or agave syrup for a vegan option)
- 1 cup sparkling water
- 1 cup pear juice
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Ice cubes
- Extra rosemary sprigs and pear slices for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by preparing the pears. Peel and core them, then blend until smooth. The fresh, sweet aroma will tantalize your senses.
- In a large pitcher, combine the pear puree, honey, rosemary sprigs, pear juice, and lemon juice. Stir well, ensuring the honey fully dissolves. You can almost smell the fragrant blend of citrus and herbs mingling together.
- Add the ice cubes to the pitcher, followed by the sparkling water. Give it another good stir. The fizzy bubbles add a delightful texture to each sip.
- Pour the spritz into individual glasses, ensuring each spritz is garnished with a fresh rosemary sprig and a slice of pear. These garnishes not only enhance the presentation but add an extra burst of flavor with every drink.
Helpful Tips and Variations
- For an extra touch of sweetness, rim the glasses with a bit of honey and dip them in sugar before serving.
- To make this drink even more refreshing, freeze the pear slices and use them as ice cubes.
Storage and Substitutions
Refrigerate any leftover spritz in the pitcher for up to 2 days. If you plan on storing the drink, keep the sparkling water separate and add it just before serving to maintain its effervescence.
