1½ cups pears, chopped into 1" pieces
¾ cup granulated sugar
2 cinnamon sticks
Cocktail
2 oz. Tequila
¾ oz. pineapple juice
½ oz. pear syrup
1 oz. lemon juice
Tajin and a slice of lime for the rim
Make the pear syrup by adding water, pears, sugar, and cinnamon sticks to a saucepan over medium heat. Stir gently until the sugar has completely dissolved. Turn the heat down and let it simmer for 30 minutes. Remove the syrup from the heat and let it sit for at least 15 minutes. Strain the syrup into a glass measuring cup and discard the pears and cinnamon stick.
To make the cocktail, combine ingredients in a shaker with ice. Shake well and strain into a glass.
Cheers, and enjoy!
