Rub lemon juice all over the pears.

Add all ingredients into a pan (including the pears) and simmer.

Continue to cook, turning the pears occasionally so that they become saturated evenly.

When the pears becomes tender, remove and place on a serving plate.

Continue simmering the syrup, depending on how thick you like the syrup to be.

Pour the syrup on top of the pears before serving.
