Pear Cocktail with Thyme

A recipe for a pear cocktail with thyme using St. George Pear Brandy

Trick-or-Treat!

I recently attended the L.A. Loves Alex’s Lemonade event, and had a pear cocktail that I loved so much, I had to try and recreate it at home. It used Pear Brandy and thyme, which seemed like the perfect way to bring in fall. We’re finally getting cooler weather here, and tonight we have plans to hang out with friends and watch the kids trick-or-treat. You know what goes great with this cocktail? Candy. Happy Halloween!
