You can just blend frozen pitted cherries with the pear nectar if you can't find cherry juice...

If you want it daiquiri style like on the photo, you need much more ice cubes or you have to freeze it and stir it every 30-60 minutes for a couple of hours.

You forgot the vodka

What liqueur should we add to this drink?
