Yield: 1 cocktail

Ingredients:

• 1 ounce Grey Goose La Poire
• ½ ounce Meyer lemon juice
• ½ ounce Asian pear syrup
• Pinch of Asian pear cubes (¼-inch dice)
• Pinch of crystallized ginger
• 2 Turbinado sugar cubes
• Moscato d’Asti
• Fresh spearmint
  

Method:
Combine vodka, Meyer lemon juice, pear syrup, Asian pear, crystallized ginger, and sugar cubes in a Boston shaker. Muddle all ingredients until they freely combine, then roll back and forth to insure infusion.  Pour half of the contents in your shaker into a footless champagne flute, and top with a fine quality Moscato d'Asti, making sure to leave room for the final contents of your shaker tin.  Finally, garnish with a sprig of fresh spearmint and a bit more crystallized ginger.
