Mix the base ingredients (brandy, bitters, orange blossom water) in advance, then add chilled sparkling wine just before serving to preserve carbonation.
Use a dry or extra-dry sparkling wine such as Prosecco, Cava, or Champagne—avoid sweet varieties that would overpower the delicate pear flavor.
Pre-chill your glass, use cold sparkling wine straight from the refrigerator, and add ice to the glass rather than shaking the cocktail.
Pear liqueur, Poire William, or a dry fruit brandy will work; adjust quantity slightly if using a sweeter alternative.
