Glass Guide- Cocktail Glass

The French Pear Martini combines to great new spirits, pear-infused vodka and St. Germain. While each was available previously via homemade pear vodka and non-alcoholic elderflower cordial, the recent additions to the commercial market make this cocktail easier than ever. This is an elegant, flavorful, very "springy" cocktail. Serving it in a cocktail glass is a little unusual considering Champagne is added, but it's a nice touch and makes a stunning impression.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 oz St. Germain liqueur
  • 1 1/2 oz pear vodka
  • Champagne
  • super-fine sugar for rimming

Preparation:

  1. Rim a cocktail glass with super-fine sugar.
  2. Shake liquors in a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
  3. Strain into the prepared cocktail glass.
  4. Top with Champagne.
