ETA_ when i get to the restaurant I always order a Cosmo.
I never really drink Cosmo's - only on Thanksgiving.

This sounds amazing! Let's get schnockered!

I have got to try this pear GG !
I have been obsessed with Figenza Vodka. It's a fig vodka that tastes like pear nectar. You should try it if you haven't already
Martini w figenza, muddled lemon and a little orange bitters = omg I'm drunk in 2 drinks because I drank them like water

That sounds amazing too.
And yes, the Grey Goose pear is hard to find, but as soon as you open it and take a sniff, it smells like fresh cut pears. Crazy

Re: Thanksgiving spirits/cocktails
A spiked apple cider sounds like a good idea, with a caramel garnish.
The kids can have theirs too, without the spike.
Or maybe a nice fruity red sangria.

Love my GG Pear! Thankfully, I dont have a hard time finding it. Restaurants and Bars are hard to find it in. So you add Limoncello AND Grapefruit juice to it? Hmmmm.........sounds extra tasty.
All I add is Cranberry Juice and a Lime...they go down like water.

You shake it up with a shot of limoncello and a shot or 2 of ruby red grapefruit juice. You can add a dash of simple syrup but that can make it a bit too sweet so I use that sparingly or not at all

This sound so amazing! How much of the grey goose? A shot? I'm terrible at mixing cocktails!
