The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn.
Fall poem by John Muir
Pear Ginger Toddies
According to Ralph Waldo Emerson, there are only ten minutes in the life of a pear when it is perfect to eat. Savor this sweet yet spicy pear concoction anytime.
Serves 4
2 cups pear nectar
4 whole cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon maple syrup
4 shots spiced rum
Candied ginger on skewers for garnish
Combine pear nectar, cloves, ginger, nutmeg and syrup in a saucepan and bring to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, remove the cloves. I like to dip rim of coffee glass in cinnamon and sugar. Pour into 4 coffee glasses and add 1 shot rum to each glass. Garnish with ginger and serve.
