This tea is wonderful, I have made it a half dozen times. Am making some right now as there are ripe pears in the stores. Have found for us about 1 t sugar sweetens enough. The ginger is so refreshing!

This really is a perfect drink. I made Sunny's cucumber drink before and it was way too sweet but this one is just right. There is just enough ginger to give it zing without overpowering the pear. I made mine with Asian pears and the flavour of the fruit was delicate but lovely. I even use this to make my super immunity mango smoothies taste even better, which I did not think was possible. Thank you Sunny! ~ Suzie the Foodie

I've made this tea a couple of times and enjoyed every drop. The flavors of pear and ginger marry quite nicely together. Using less or no sugar worked for me however. I've thought about using cooked pears in a breakfast muffin mix, anyone have any ideas about this?
