Summer Cocktailing

Its no secret that cocktails are among my very favorite things, especially in the summer on a Friday with friends. My drink of the moment is a pear martini, done simply without any fuss.My great friend Dana was kind enough to get me this beautiful bottle of St. Germain which completes the drink like no substitute can.

Ingredients:
2 parts Grey Goose La Poire
1 part St. Germain
Fresh squeezed juice of 1/2 lemon
1 slice of pear (or lemon)
3-4 ice cubes

Directions:
Pour all ingredients into a cocktail shaker, shake vigorously for about 30 seconds
Place lemon or pear slice in the glass
Strain into the glass over the fruit wedge
