White Horse Scotch works good in this cocktail. Amount of grenadine will need to be adjusted to taste and sweetness of your grenadine.
Homemade grenadine is best for this drink.

  • A bit too sour and pear got lost so I upped the eau de vie to 1 1/2 ish. I guess similar effect would be to lower lemon and cognac to 3/4 for less boozy variation. Still nice either way.
  • Used Hudson Valley small batch pear brandy. I felt it needed just a little extra lemon juice to brighten it up — ★★★
  • Terrific pear flavor. — ★★★★★

Made with St George Pear Brandy, Pierre Ferrand 1840 and Combier Triple Sec. Divine. Like rich pear drops with a satisfying alcoholic warmth that lingers. Perfect accentuation of a beautiful pear note. 

plandll commented on 12/03/2020:

Used Raynal VSOP brandy instead of cognac, and Hudson Valley small batch distilled pear brandy (80proof). I felt it benefited from 1.5 oz lemon juice to brighten it up a bit.

  • Great! Used Fee Bros. barrel aged bitters instead of Angostura. Is the little sweetness coming from the Cunard? — ★★★★
  • Rebel Yell small batch Rye. Noilly Prat. Love the bitter, smokey finish.
