Made in a small village in the Bordeaux region, the wine-based apéritif, Lillet, has been made since 1872. The mild floral, herbal and citrus notes of this liqueur (similar to those found in vermouth), can be sipped alone, or used to enhance cocktails. This Lillet Paloma is light, refreshing and easy to make.

1 part Lillet Rosé
Slice of fresh grapefruit
Simple Syrup to taste
Dash of Lemon Juice
Ice cubes
METHOD
Combine all ingredients in shaker with ice, shake and strain over fresh ice in highball glass. Garnish with a lime wedge and pinch of kosher salt.
