Ruibín’s cocktails are a testament to Galway’s vibrant cultural mix, shaped by its student spirit and creative heart.

This Port and Pear Cocktail can be made individually and served shaken and strained into a coupe glass, as here, or can be batched in a jug (just multiple the ingredients tenfold) and served in a salt-rimmed rocks glass over ice. All the ingredients are available to buy either in Evergreen or McCambridges.

Ports & Pears Cocktail Recipe

Serves 1

Ingredients

45ml mezcal (or tequila if not available)
30ml pear juice 
15ml tawny port
10ml Grand Marnier 
20ml fresh lime juice
10ml sugar syrup  
1 dash plum bitters

To serve

Smoked salt, to rim the glass

Dried pear slice or lime wheel

  1. Rim a coupe glass with smoked salt. We use a smoked whiskey salt, which you can find easily enough, or any smoked salt will do.
  2. Add all other ingredients to a cocktail shaker and shake well with ice. Strain out into glass, or serve over ice. 
  3. Garnish with your choice of dried pear slice or lime wheel.
