History

Thirst quenching, refreshing and low in alcohol. Suitable for summer afternoons or pre-lunch drinks.

This drink is adapted from a signature serve which Lillet Blanc promoted as “Lillet Vive.” The French word Vive means live or long life, so Lillet Vive translates to Lillet Life. Vive l'apéritif means long live the apéritif.
