Ingredients
- 1 1/2 tablespoons tamarind concentrate
- 3/4 cup water
- 3 tablespoons superfine sugar
- 1/2 inch cinnamon stick
- 1/2 cup unsweetened pear juice
- 1/2 (750 ml) bottle chilled Prosecco
- 1 pear (thinly sliced)
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine tamarind concentrate, water, and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture barely comes to a boil. This should take about 10 minutes.
- Turn off the heat, add the cinnamon stick, and let the mixture steep until cool for about 30 minutes. Once cooled, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve and discard the solids.
- Combine the cooled tamarind syrup with the unsweetened pear juice, and chill the mixture until cold, for at least 2 hours.
- To serve, fill a coupe or flute glass a quarter to a third full with the pear-tamarind juice, top with chilled Prosecco, and garnish with a slice of pear.
