Scorched Pear & Ginger Bitters test Chocolat Moderne founder Joan CoukosThis rustic and yet refined blend is bursting with flavors of ripe pear, caramel, spices and tangy garlic.

Scorched Pear and Ginger Bitters pair up (pun intended) perfectly with vodka and gin based cocktails. Also, a nice addition to rum and champagne.
