Cinnamon Pear Mimosa
Turn to this wintery mimosa for a reprieve from eggnog and mulled wine this holiday season.

Ingredients:
1 (750ml) bottle prosecco or champagne, chilled
16 ounces pear juice, no added sugar
2 cinnamon sticks
Ground cinnamon and thin slices of pear for garnish

Directions:
In a small saucepan, heat the pear juice until it comes to a boil. Once it boils, turn off the heat and add the cinnamon sticks. Cover and let steep for 30 minutes. Pour into a container, cover and refrigerate overnight or until cold.

Fill champagne flutes half full with the cinnamon pear juice, and top off with prosecco. Garnish with a pinch of ground cinnamon and a slice of pear.
