Mini-Croque Monsieur: The White Pear Martini
A fragrant, fruit-forward martini that echoes the wine-poached pear’s citrus and floral notes with just the right touch of sophistication.

Directions
-
Chill a martini or coupe glass. In a shaker filled with ice, combine pear vodka, elderflower liqueur, vermouth, lemon juice, and bitters. Shake until well chilled, about 15 seconds. Strain into your chilled glass and garnish with a thin pear slice, lemon twist, or a small edible flower.
