PEAR MARTINI

Steps:

• Chop the half pear, then place it in the bottom of a cocktail shaker. Muddle until it's fully mashed.
• To the cocktail shaker, add the pear vodka, lemon juice, simple syrup, and orange bitters. Add 1 handful ice, then shake until cold. Strain into a martini glass and garnish with a pear slice.

Steps:

• Put the pear, shochu and lemon juice in a blender and puree until smooth. Pass the pear puree through a very fine mesh sieve (or a regular sieve lined with cheesecloth). Press on the solids to get as much juice out as possible.
• Fill 4 glasses with large ice cubes and put a shiso leaf in each glass. Use a blunt object to pound the ice and shiso to release its flavors. Divide the pear mixture between the 4 glasses and serve.
