Lillet Cocktails Recipes

Steps:

• For each drink, pour 2/3 cup Lillet Blanc (or dry vermouth) into a wine glass with ice. Add 2 dashes orange bitters. Top with sparkling wine or seltzer and garnish with a slice of orange.

Steps:

• Puree half of the lychees and all of the syrup in a blender until all lychees are liquefied. Strain through a fine mesh strainer, pressing down to get the most from the lychees into a clean pitcher; discard the fibrous solids. Add the Lillet, rosewater and bitters. Refrigerate to chill thoroughly, if needed.
• Pour into chilled flutes, martini, or fun juice glasses, and garnish with an orange twist or slice. Drink.

Steps:

• Make the spiced syrup: Combine 1 1/2 cups water, the sugar, cloves, cinnamon stick and blood orange zest in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar; simmer until syrupy and reduced to 1 cup, about 15 minutes. Let cool, then strain.
• Make the cocktail: Combine the Lillet, blood orange juice and 1 tablespoon of the spiced syrup in a large glass and stir. Add ice and top with seltzer. Garnish with a blood orange slice.

Steps:

• Add ice, Lillet, and orange juice to a cocktail shaker. Shake and strain into 2 glasses filled with ice. Top off each glass with 1-ounce of soda water and garnish with an orange slice.
