Pear Ginger Bourbon Bliss

Pear Ginger Bourbon Cocktail

As the weather cools down and fall flavors take center stage, there’s nothing like a cocktail that warms you from the inside out while still feeling fresh and light. My Pear & Bourbon Ginger Bliss brings together the crisp sweetness of pear, the subtle spice of ginger, and the bold, warming notes of bourbon in a drink that’s as cozy as it is refreshing. Whether you’re hosting friends or simply unwinding after a long day, this cocktail is the perfect way to embrace the season in style. Bonus: the homemade pear ginger simple syrup makes it extra special!
