    The rosy hue of Lillet Rose makes it such a stunning cocktail ingredient! You get the most beautiful pink cocktail perfect for Valentine's Day or any spring and summer happy hour. 

    What does Lillet Rosé taste like?

    Lillet Rose is very fruit-forward with notes of red berries, like wild strawberries and strawberries, orange blossom, and grapefruit. The dominant grape is Sémillon which is the main grape variety used to make many beautiful Bordeaux wines. If you are a wine enthusiast, you need a bottle of Lillet Rose in your home bar.

    How to pronounce Lillet Rosé

    You pronounce Lillet Rose like lee-LAY rose-AY. 

    What type of alcohol is Lillet?

    Lillet is a French fortified wine that comes in three different varieties: Lillet Blanc, Lillet Rose, and Lillet Rouge. Each variety has different tastes and aromatic qualities. I recommend Lillet Blanc if you are a pinot grigio fan, Lillet Rose if you like a sweeter rose with light aromas of berries, and Lillet Rouge if you like a sweeter red wine, like a Merlot. 

    Is Lillet Rosé a vermouth?

    It is not! The difference between Lillet and Vermouth is Lillet doesn't have wormwood, and Vermouth does.

    What is similar to Lillet Rosé?

    If you can't find Lillet Rose, I recommend using Lillet Blanc or a sweet vermoth. 

    What to make with Lillet Rose?

    Lillet Rose is perfect for making a refreshingly simple Lillet Spritz, a Rosé Paloma, or a Lillet Rose Martini.
