A Seasonal Twist: Cinnamon Pear Fizz Mocktail
When the holidays roll around, there’s nothing quite like the comforting aroma of cinnamon and sweet, juicy pears to set the festive mood. Whether you’re hosting a party or treating yourself to a quiet night in, this Cinnamon Pear Fizz is the perfect seasonal sip — and it’s delightfully alcohol-free. With just the right balance of warming spice, subtle sweetness, and a bubbly finish, it’s an easy way to embrace the holiday spirit.
Why We Love It:
This mocktail takes the classic flavors of the season — crisp pear and aromatic cinnamon — and pairs them with the soothing sparkle of club soda or sparkling water. A touch of honey (or simple syrup) keeps it balanced without becoming cloying, and a dose of our Baked in Bushwick tincture adds that extra layer of relaxation you’re craving. The result? A holiday-inspired sipper that’s not only refreshing and delicious, but also a low-key way to unwind after a day of gift shopping, cookie baking, or back-to-back Zoom gatherings.
What You’ll Need:
- ½ cup pear juice
- ½ cup sparkling water (or club soda)
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (plus extra for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon honey or simple syrup
- 1 dropper of Baked In Bushwick tincture
- Fresh pear slice, for garnish
Directions:
- Mix It Up: In a cocktail shaker (or a mason jar with a lid), combine the pear juice, cinnamon, honey, and one dropper of our tincture. Shake vigorously to ensure that the cinnamon and honey incorporate fully.
- Serve Over Ice: Fill a rocks glass or tumbler with fresh ice. Strain your pear-cinnamon mixture over the ice, then top it off with the sparkling water for that crisp, bubbly finish.
- Garnish & Enjoy: Gently place a fresh pear slice on the rim of the glass and sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on top. The scent alone will have you feeling festive in no time.
Pro Tips:
- Adjust the Sweetness: If you find the drink too sweet, add more sparkling water or opt for less honey/simple syrup.
- Elevate Your Garnish: For an even more impressive presentation, lightly dust the rim of the glass with cinnamon sugar.
- Make It a Cocktail: Prefer something with a kick? Add a splash of your favorite brown spirit (we suggest a mellow bourbon) for a spicy, spirited version.
With its harmonious blend of flavors and a soothing herbal tincture, this Cinnamon Pear Fizz is sure to become your go-to holiday mocktail. Whip it up for your next gathering or simply settle in by the window with a glass in hand, watching the snowfall. However you enjoy it, we guarantee you’ll feel more “baked” into the holiday vibes from the very first sip.
Stay baked, friends!
