Pear

Pear is an orchard fruit with roots in Europe and Asia, grown in cooler regions from the Pacific Northwest to France and China. Dried pear pieces add a gentle, mellow sweetness with a soft, juicy, slightly floral flavor and a hint of honey. Pear pairs well with black tea, white tea, rooibos and spice blends, especially alongside cinnamon, ginger, vanilla, cardamom and apple. Pear and spice blends are cozy autumn favorites, and they taste wonderful with a splash of milk or steamed into a latte.
