2 cups unsweetened pomegranate juice

½ cup sugar

2 cinnamon sticks

4 whole cloves

4 ripe but firm Bosc pears, peeled, halved, and cored

8 scoops Market Pantry® Vanilla Ice Cream


  1. 1. In a large saucepan, bring the juice, sugar, cinnamon sticks, and cloves to a boil. Add the pears and reduce the heat to simmer until tender, about 10 minutes.
  2. 2. Transfer the pears to a serving dish and boil the pomegranate juice until syrupy and reduced to ½ cup, about 10 minutes. Discard the spices; let the syrup cool slightly.
  3. 3. Arrange 1 pear half and 1 ice cream scoop in each serving dish. Drizzle the syrup on top and serve immediately.
  4. Tip: The pears and syrup can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days before serving with ice cream.
