Ingredients
- 2 large ripe pears, such as Bosc or Anjou, slightly firm to the touch
- 3 tablespoons granulated stevia extract, or to taste
- 1 tablespoon dried lavender
- 2 blossoms dried hibiscus
- 1 chamomile tea bag
- 1/2 cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves
Directions
- Peel, halve and core pears using a melon baller to scoop out seeds.
- In large pot, combine 3 cups water, sweetener, lavender, hibiscus, chamomile tea and mint. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low. Add pears and simmer until you can easily pierce pears with the tip of a knife, about 20 minutes.
- To serve, transfer pear halves to 4 individual bowls and ladle some of the cooking liquid over the top.
