Celebrate your favorite veteran always and forever. Inspired by my favorite US Navy sailor this sparkler of a drink contains a liqueur called Poire William. It is a pear flavored brandy that goes well with fresh ginger and some patriotic fruit colors. Top it off with some bubbly and just says "cheers".
