  • Crisp and refreshing and clean. The taste of pear is strong with this one. Not a lot of character but solid. Nice to have a cocktail that taste like pear eau de vie.
  • St. George Terroir Gin Tasty buy lacking in oomph - the sum was not greater than the parts. — ★★★

Rob Marais commented on 10/25/2013:

Frankly I think this would be better with home made boiled custard instead of store bought eggnog. YMMV.

Arrack commented on 10/26/2013:

Thanks for the suggestion, I will look into that!

Kindred Cocktails commented on 1/01/2015:

Curated to remove store-bought egg nog and Amaretto brand as there are better options.

  • Very boozy with my high-proof amer, though not harsh.
  • Doesn't work for me (used 'real' Amer Picon). It seemed unbalanced; too much alcohol burn and the maraschino dominates.
  • Excellent. Use a very bitter homemade Amer Boudreau, which at 1 oz, contributes strongly — ★★★★

Stewart commented on 5/10/2016:

Made this (or something like it) using 1 oz CioCiaro + 1/4 oz Campari for bitterness in place of the Amer Picon.  Not sure how it compares to the true Boudreau version, but quite tasty.
