Today’s post is all about beverages, respectively my favorite drink!  I’m bored of all these Hugo’s & Aperol Spritzz.

In Paris we have Chanel, Dior or Lanvin so it’s no wonder that my favorite drink is from france as well. Lillet 1872, a perfect Aperitif or sundowner. I’m not into sickly sweet drinks what makes this Aperitif from Bordeaux even more attractive to me. The taste is softly herb paired with a perfect bitterness.

There are a lot of different ways to create a fresh, tasty drink for summer.

One of my favorites is

 

 

 

Lillet vive:

5cl Littet blanc

10 cl Tonic Water

Ice and a cucumber-slice, mint plus 1 strawberry.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lillet Vesper:

1cl Lillet Blanc

6cl Gin

2cl Vodka

Ice and a lemon zest.

 

 

 

 

 

Lillet Citrosé:

5cl Lillet Rosé
