KAHLUA POACHED PEARS 
6 pears
8 c. brewed coffee
1 1/2 c. Kahlua liqueur
1 c. fresh orange juice
2 tbsp. lime juice
1 1/2 c. sugar
2 cinnamon sticks

Peel pears then slice bottom edge off so pears will stand up. Remove core of pear with melon baller. Place pears in a large saucepan with remaining ingredients, making sure they are fully covered with liquid (placing a small towel on top of pears to keep them submerged may be necessary). Over low heat, cook pears until fork tender. Carefully remove from liquid so they can cool.

Remove cinnamon stick from liquid. Increase heat to high and boil liquid down until it begins to turn into a syrup. Remove from heat and refrigerate to cool. To serve spoon syrup over pears.
