Pear and Thyme Fizz

Tip: Deck the drinks with CBD
For an on-trend and alcohol-free holiday party, consider serving CBD-infused mocktails. Let your guests know in advance what you’ve got planned; that way, they can manage their CBD intake. Little signs on each serving tray that display the CBD dosage in the different drinks can also empower guests.

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400 F. Place rimmed baking tray in oven to warm while oven preheats.
2. Slice pears in halves, or quarters if large, and remove stems and core. Place pears in large bowl along with honey or maple syrup, vinegar, and thyme. Toss to combine.
3. Dump pears onto warmed baking tray in single layer. Bake until easily pierced with fork and lightly browned. This will depend on size and firmness of pears—probably between 20 and 40 minutes. Remove tray from oven and set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
4. Strip roasted thyme leaves off 3 stems and place in blender, discarding stems and remaining roasted thyme sprigs. Add pears to blender along with 2 Tbsp water and puree until smooth. Transfer puree to pitcher and refrigerate until ready to use.
5. When ready to serve, stir in sparkling water or wine or combination. Divide among champagne glasses and garnish each with a slice or two of pear and a sprig of thyme.
