Shake all together with ice, strain into a large coup, no garnish.
This is a fun refreshing cocktail for the warm weather featuring Er Guo Tou. People often shy away from Er Guo Tou due to its high proof and intense finish, but with the right pairings and balance it can be delightful. This drink is juicy, fruity and refreshing.
In China the word for Pear sounds like the word for separate or divorce, so superstition dictates that you never split a pear with someone you love.
