Pear and grape compote
Description
The drink is quick and easy to prepare. If you're making grape and pear compote to drink right away, simply place the berries and sliced pears into a saucepan with boiling water, add sugar, and simmer for 10 minutes. However, if you'd like to preserve this compote for winter, follow my method. It's an unusual approach, but the compote stores very well, even though the jars contain pears, which often tend to cause containers to "explode."
