Ingredients:

• 2 oz vodka

To Make The Pear-Rosemary Syrup:

1.  Combine one ripe pear (peeled and chopped) with 2 tsp O-live olive oil in a small saucepan.
2. Sauté until the pear starts to caramelize, about 10 minutes.
3. Add 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup water, and one rosemary sprig and simmer until sugar has dissolved and pear starts to break down, another 10 minutes.
4. Remove from heat, cool, then strain. Syrup will keep in fridge for about 2 weeks.
