The Gilded Pear

An elegant autumn twist on the classic gin and tonic. Just in time for sweater weather, this cocktail is refreshing and festive. The crisp gin, luscious pear, and warm seasonal spices capture the warmth and charm of fall in every sip!

Garnishes

3. Strain the mixture into the prepared wine glass and top with tonic water.
4. Garnish with your choice of dried orange slices, cinnamon sticks, star anise, and whole cloves.
