Pear brandy

Some extra-fancy varieties of pear brandy come in a bottle with a whole pear inside, created by strapping the bottle to the tree while the pear is still budding. You don’t need to hold out for such an elaborate bottling – pear brandy can be had at nearly any price point. Just stay away from the bottom shelf – as with most fruit spirits, the cheapest varieties are usually artificially-flavored sugar-booze.

Really Good App

We downloaded the app after seeing it as one of the top posts on /r/cocktails, and we've been playing around with it and adding our ingredients to the list. While it's not an all inclusive list of ingredients (missing some creme de ), it's a solid overall app and tosses out some truly spectacular recipes based on what you have in your liquor cabinet. Minor quibbles for an otherwise fantastic application!
