A message from my husband Eric...
Ever since Leslie returned from her year abroad in Paris with tales of the wonders—and apéritifs--of the City of Lights, Lillet has been a staple in our lives. When Drinking French entered our lives (thanks to Marc and Jessica), we naturally gravitated to anything with Lillet in it and this one does not disappoint. A flanker to the classic Corpse Reviver cocktail, the Lillet Reviver is fresh and truly reviving—the shot of gin doesn’t hurt, either. The good news is that you do not have to be a corpse to enjoy this tonic pick-me-up!

1 ounce gin
1 ounce Grand Marnier, Cointreau, or triple sec

1 ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice
about ½ teaspoon Pastis or absinthe
