Pear Martinis. Yes, they are blissful and I probably don’t need to explain why. If you are a pear lover that is. This cocktail  is a true taste of summer! I had my first experience with a drink like this at the New Sheridan Chop House here in Telluride, CO. Now it is my favorite…but do not fear. I still have flings with bourbon.
If you are looking for a crisp, cool, kinda sweet (but not too sweet ) cocktail then this might become your favorite too. Martini glasses are very elegant but rather silly when you are a smidge tipsy, dont’cha think? They are kinda tricky to balance without spilling. Maybe it keeps one from drinking too much. Hmmmmmm?
Anywhoos…they are pretty to hold and made even tastier with Grey Goose La Poire Vodka. Don’t worry…if it is tricky to find Le Poire, plain vodka will do ya just fine. Next time you have a cocktail party, I highly recommend these martinis. Pear finely balanced with a twist of lemon, a splash of sparkling water (or sparkling pear water)…and of course the booze.
