Pear Fake-a-tini

Wish you could join the party?

When I was having chemo and couldn’t do much, I spent a lot of time on the couch.  Inspired by our “Thin Man” movie box set, SuperHubs invented this “Martini” to help get me through the no-alcohol rule without feeling like I was missing out.   

We spent many nights enjoying a nice fire, a great meal and a hilarious movie (Editor’s Note: if you have never seen the “Thin Man” series, we highly recommend them – movies like they should be; smart, fabulous, and endearing!) Check it out here>  While SuperHubs had a real martini, my “Fake-a-tini” was just as satisfying and helped cap off a perfect evening.

 3 oz. pear nectar

1/2 oz. pineapple juice

Ice

Pear or cherry to garnish

Chill martini glass by filling with ice.  To martini shaker, add pear nectar and shake well.  Empty glass of ice and add pear mixture.

Garnish with pear slice or cherry.  Makes one serving.
