Toast Thanksgiving dinner with Embers Ski Lodge Maple Pear Sour recipe along with three other holiday cocktails featured by Craft Spirits Exchange. Try your hand in mixing these cocktails and give your guests something special to sip while munching the quintessential roast turkey.

 

“Pear, maple and walnut play nicely in this cocktail that would equally with spiced nuts and nut-topped baked brie and crackers before dinner as it would with apple or pear pie for dessert. Walnut bitters add richness and depth, but if you can’t find them substitute another flavor of your choosing.” Kelly Magyarics, Craft Spirits Exchange (Follow her on Twitter)

 

Maple Pear Sour Recipe

Recipe courtesy of Embers Ski Lodge, Nashville, TN

Pear, maple and walnut play nicely in this cocktail that would equally with spiced nuts and nut-topped baked brie and crackers before dinner as it would with apple or pear pie for dessert. Walnut bitters add richness and depth, but if you can’t find them substitute another flavor of your choosing.

 

1 ½ oz. Angels Envy Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

½ oz. Mathilde Pear Liqueur

½ oz. maple simple syrup (equal parts real maple syrup and warm water, stirred to combine)

¾ oz. fresh lemon juice

3 dashes walnut bitters

½ egg white

Pear slice, lemon twist and cinnamon, for garnish

 

Add first six ingredients to a cocktail shaker. Add ice, and shake until chilled. Strain into a rocks glass over fresh ice, and garnish with the pear, lemon and cinnamon.
