Place all the liquor ingredients in a large pan, and bring to a simmer before dropping in your peeled pears. Poach on a gentle simmer until a knife can be inserted easily into the pears.
Remove the pears with a slotted spoon and set aside, then turn up the heat under your pan and reduce the liquor by about a third to a half.
If you'd like a thicker liquor, add another quarter cup of sugar and reduce further, which will leave you with a sweeter, more syrupy liquid.
Serve alone as a dessert with the syrup, with yoghurt or ice cream, or perched on a tart.
