Now that we are heading towards winter, it is also nice to start making winter cocktails. Tasty spicy syrup and fruit that fits perfectly with this season. I love it myself licorice root, I often drink it as a tea, but you can also add it to your syrup as a seasoning. Just break a stick into pieces and let it soak in the syrup. This pear syrup gin cocktail has a nice head because of the protein that we shake in the cocktail shaker. We shook twice, once with and once without ice. This gives a beautiful foam layer.
Pear syrup gin cocktail
I'm repeating myself a bit with this, as with my other cocktails, but again you can also serve this virgin. Nowadays you can find all kinds of nice and tasty alcohol-free versions online, but also in many liquor stores.
The syrup can be kept for weeks, so you can easily store it in a glass bottle in the refrigerator. You can even make flavored Spa with it, for the necessary refreshment on hot days. Enjoy the endless possibilities and experiment with different combinations of flavors!
Herbs and spices
You can also vary endlessly with this. Try with cinnamon or pink pepper balls. I chose liquorice this time, fennel seeds, and star anise. As far as I'm concerned, those are perfect flavors that fit the winter.
Here you will find the complete recipe with all the ingredients you need. I hope you have fun preparing the dish below.
