Ingredients
Honey-Base Syrup
1 cup water
3/4 teaspoon bee pollen
2 cups high-grade amber honey
Baby Pear Punch
4–5 sprigs thyme
10 oz Seedlip Spice 94
1 lemon, cut into thin slices
1/2 Bartlett pear, cut into thin slices
10 oz pear juice
5 oz apple cider
5 oz Honey-Base Syrup
5 oz lemon juice
20 oz chilled green tea
Directions
Honey-Base Syrup
In a small saucepan, bring water to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add bee pollen and stir.
Add the honey and turn the heat to low.
Stir until honey is integrated and bee pollen is dissolved.
Finely strain out all solids using a cheesecloth on a colander and let it cool. Bottle and refrigerate for up to 3 months.
Baby Pear Bunch
Use a lighter to toast the thyme sprigs until fragrant lightly. Blow out any flames and place the toasted sprigs in a large punch bowl (at least 128 oz in volume).
Add Seedlip Spice 94.
Add lemon and pear slices. Stir and let sit for 10–15 minutes to infuse.
Add the rest of the ingredients and stir it. (The chilled green tea will dilute the punch in place of water.)
Add a few giant ice cubes and stir. Serve immediately by spooning into small punch cups. Enjoy!
