My sparkling spiced pear cocktails are so easy to batch together to take for thanksgiving dinner! After making your spiced syrup, just pour all the ingredients into travel safe bottles along with your prosecco and you’re ready to go!
For the spiced syrup: Add 1 cup water, 1 cup honey or sugar, 5 sprigs of fresh thyme or rosemary, 1 cinnamon stick, 1/4 tsp cloves, and 2 inches of sliced ginger to a saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Simmer for about ten minutes (don’t let it boil) before taking the pan off the heat to steep. Once completely cooled, strain and pour into a syrup bottle. The syrup can be stored in the fridge for 2-3 weeks.
For the pitcher of cocktails: Combine 3 cups of pear juice, 1.5 cups of vodka or gin, 1/2 cup of the prepared spiced autumn simple syrup, and 1/4 cup lemon juice in a pitcher or travel-safe bottles. Just before serving or packing, add one chilled bottle of Prosecco.
