Pear cream cider served in a glass
Winter warming drink with pear and cream

Warm creamy pear and apple cider

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Drinks
This drink is the borderline between cocktail and dessert. Pear and apple are relatives (both belong to the rose family), so their flavours harmonise naturally. The addition of cream makes the acidic base creamy, while spices lend a 'pastry' character. It's like sipping liquid pear pie.

Instructions

1 ✓

Pour the cider into the saucepan, add the cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar. Heat it up.

Tip: Dissolve the sugar.
2 ✓

Stir the pear puree into the warm base.

Tip: Use a whisk to mix until lump-free.
3 ✓

Reduce heat to minimum. In a separate small bowl, mix the cream with a ladle of warm cider (tempering).

Tip: This step prevents heat shock, which would cause the cream to curdle.
4 ✓

Pour the creamy mixture back into the saucepan, add the vanilla, and heat for another 1 minute, but DO NOT boil.

Tip: Just heat through together.
5 ✓

Fish out the cinnamon and pour into glasses.

Tip: Garnish with fresh pear.

Recipe FAQ

Did the cream curdle?
The acidity of cider can curdle cream when boiling. The secret is low heat and 'tempering' (temperature equalisation).
