Mulled wine is not really my thing, I have to admit. But the smell of it, creates a nice mood for the Christmas holiday season.
Due to Corona, I began to drink alcohol occasionally again. And so, I had the idea to mix a little aperitif with the taste of Christmas.
It's the taste of cinnamon that does the trick, actually. Here's my recipe.
Recipe for a winter apéro
- 5cl Lillet Blanc
- 5cl Tonic Water
- 5cl Apple Juice
- 2cl Lime Juice (= half a lime)
- 2cl Cinnamon Sirup
Stir well, serve chilled. Cheers!
This is not a sponsored post. I only linked the above ingredients, so you can see how the bottles look. I did not come up with a name for this drink as I have zero intentions to make bar-keeping a hobby.
The drink contains around 4.5% of alcohol. For an alternative without alcohol you could replace both Lillet Blanc and Tonic Water with 10 cl of Ginger Ale.

Non-alcoholic version
- 10cl Ginger Ale
- 5cl Apple Juice
- 2cl Lime Juice (= half a lime)
- 2cl Cinnamon Sirup
