Ingredients

  1. 2 Asian pears peeled, cored, and roughly chopped
  2. 1 cup shochu or sake
  3. 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  4. Large ice cubes
  5. 4 green shiso (perilla) leaves

Instructions

  1. Put the pear, shochu and lemon juice in a blender and puree until smooth. Pass the pear puree through a very fine mesh sieve (or a regular sieve lined with cheesecloth). Press on the solids to get as much juice out as possible. 
  2. Fill 4 glasses with large ice cubes and put a shiso leaf in each glass. Use a blunt object to pound the ice and shiso to release its flavors. Divide the pear mixture between the 4 glasses and serve.
