These are the ingredients you need for a Honey Pear Collins:
Pear Vodka
Elderflower Liqueur – this liqueur is slightly sweet and less floral than you would think! If you end up wanting to make the drink sweeter, add more of this or the honey syrup
Lemon Juice – fresh is best!
Honey Simple Syrup – using straight honey does not work well as it tends to seize up as soon as it is cold and will not mix well
Club Soda
FAQs
