SPICED LILLET SPRITZ
Lillet is an infused wine aperitif available in white, rose and red - each with slightly different flavor notes. While delicious on its own, this cocktail adds a warming spiced syrup and fresh blood orange juice to make it feel extra cozy for the holidays and pick up on the berry and spice flavors in Lillet Rouge.
