Ginger Pear Punch

Yesterday's post was a total Debbie Downer. Sorry about that.

So, on March 7th I did the post for Ginger Tea, one of my fav. drinks & said i'd post the recipe for the Ginger Pear Punch. It's a little time consuming but it's pretty good when it's all done. Sunny calls it tea but I prefer punch.

4 cups water
2 pears, peeled and coarsely grated
1-inch piece ginger, sliced into 1/8-inch coins

Directions
