Paramour Lavender-Yuzu Aperitif Liqueur

Paramour Lavender-Yuzu Aperitif Liqueur is new to market, bold on flavor, and low in alcohol at 14% alcohol by volume, the same percentage found in many wines. Chilled or served over ice, Paramour Lavender-Yuzu Aperitif Liqueur is delicious on its own and also works well in a variety of cocktails. We created three great tasting cocktails using Paramour Lavender-Yuzu Aperitif Liqueur, Luxury Experience – Lavender Margarita (with tequila), Luxury Experience – Fuzzy Greyhound (with gin), and Luxury Experience – Lavender Lemonade. Cheers, it’s cocktail time!
