Tuscan Pear

From Grey Goose Vodka, for About.com

For a fruity, refreshing lowball drink, the Tuscan Pear is a perfect choice. The pear-flavored vodka of Grey Goose (La Poire) pairs delightfully with the lemon liqueur lemoncello, ginger liqueur and orange juice. The mint leaves and pear garnish are a finishing touch that adds freshness and color that contrasts the bright yellow drink for a simple, elegant display.

  • dried pears for garnish
