The Duchess
A little English flair supports this drink. The orange jam doesn’t only add an English touch, but also underlines the bitter and sweet orange notes that were used for the liquor in Lillet as well.

• 4cl Lillet Blanc
• one tablespoon British orange jam
• 2cl Lemon
• Soda Water
• ice cubes
Fill Lillet Blanc, jam and lemon into a marmalade jar, put the lid on and shake it well. Afterwards, open the jar, add ice cubes, fill up with soda water and stir.
Haute Couture
To fit into the Little Black Dress, you sometimes have to pay attention to your shape. That is why Tatjana Friedrich created an exotic low proof and low calory drink! The Lillet Rosé stands for elegance and sophistication. The coconut water is low in calories as well as isotonic.

• 5cl Lillet Rosé
• 15cl Coconut Water (Innocent)
• pulp from one passion fruit
• mint leaves
• ice cubes
Fill a wine glass with ice cubes, add Lillet Rosé and coconut water. Finish off by scraping out a passion fruit, stir briefly and decorate your drink with mint leaves.
Femme Fatale
The 60s inspired us with movies like »Swimmingpool«, »Lolita« or »La dolce vita« to create a drink with the name »Femme Fatale« – what would be a better fit for that than Lillet Rouge, that came out in 1962 and got to international fame?

• 5cl Lillet Rouge
• Fentiman’s Rose Lemonade
• Rosemary Lemon
• ice cubes
Pour Lillet Rouge into an ice filled tumbler, fill up with the rose lemonade and stir briefly. Finish by softly rubbing the rosemary on the back of your hand to set the etheric oils free and garn the drink with it. Press the lemon peel against the glass to get all the flavours in and then drape over it.
Tip: if you don’t have any rose lemonade, you can just mix a few sprinkles of rose water with sparkling water or soda and a splash of lemon
Tillistique
Tillistique takes you to a magical world, full of elegance, refinement and of course creativity. The sparkling of the champagne gets an interesting contrast with the bitter and colourful notes of the pink grapefruit. The right drink to be creative!

• 5cl Lillet Blanc
• 3cl Fresh pink grapefruit juice
• 10cl Champagne / Prosecco
• Small lavender twig
• ice cubes
Mix Lillet Blanc and fresh grapefruit juice into a champagne glass and fill it up with cold champagne. If you have a lavender twig, that is a beautiful decoration for this drink. Otherwise, all kinds of edible flowers make very nice decorations as well.
Tip: the fresh grapefruit juice needs to be filtered after pressing it, so that you don’t have any small pieces of pulp floating around your drink
J'adore
Sometimes, you just need a break between creative projects. The drink with pineapple and strawberries is easy to recreate at home – just the right partner for a little escape onto the balcony after a day’s work at the computer.

• 5cl Lillet Blanc Pineapple, half a slice
• 2 strawberries
• Prosecco/ champagne
• ice cubes
Puree the strawberries and pineapple in a blender and filter through a strainer. Pour the filtered puree into a wine glass, fill it with ice cubes and add the Lillet Blanc. Top off with champagne or Prosecco, as you wish.
