"This is the perfect cocktail for transitioning from winter into spring," says Joel Tennyson, wine director of The Inn at Dos Brisas of his Spiced Pear Cocktail. "The ginger adds a kick to wake up your palate. Pears are not a fruit you often find in cocktails, but they add the perfect balance of sweetness to play on the acidity and the spice of the ginger."
