Lillet
[ lee-LAY ]
A French
APÉRITIF made from a blend of wine,
BRANDY, fruits and herbs. It originated in the French village of Podensac and has been made since the late 1800s. Lillet Blanc is made from white wine and is drier than Lillet Rouge, its red-wine counterpart. Both are classically served over ice with an orange twist.
