Now comes the hard part if you lack patience like me. Close the jar and let sit in a dark cool place for four days. Ugh, I know right. After four days you can taste test to see if it needs longer.

This was my day four results ( I made two) and it was spicy! Almost too much for my taste, I personally will use less spice next time.

Strain vodka to remove pears and spice. A spaghetti strainer worked for me but there are probably better options. The pears can be devoured too; maybe some spiked pear sauce?
