Lillet Rosé Spritz

A light, floral spritz built on Lillet Rosé, prosecco, and a splash of club soda — pale pink, effervescent, and barely-there sweet. The orange slice and fresh thyme add a herbal citrus finish that keeps it from tipping into precious. The kind of drink that makes an ordinary evening feel like the start of something.

This cocktail is part of our Date Nite collection, made to be sipped while you cook together.

WHAT IS LILLET ROSÉ

Lillet Rosé is a French aperitif wine. It's slightly sweet, lightly floral, with notes of peach and citrus. It's lower in alcohol than spirits and designed to be sipped, not shot. Find it in the wine or aperitif section at most liquor stores.

PROSECCO TIP

Use a dry (brut) prosecco so the drink stays balanced. The Lillet already brings sweetness, so the prosecco is just for bubbles and balance. Any affordable brut prosecco works, and cava is a great substitute if that's what you have on hand. For a brighter, blush pink color, use rosé prosecco. That's what we used and it makes a beautiful difference in the glass.

THE THYME GARNISH

Don't skip the thyme. It adds a subtle herbal note that makes this feel more considered than a simple wine spritz. Lightly clap the sprig between your palms before dropping it in to release the oils.

GLASSWARE OPTIONS

We used a stemless wine glass, which works beautifully. A standard wine glass or a large stemless tumbler are both great. Avoid a narrow flute because this drink needs room to breathe and show off the garnish.

MAKE IT A MOCKTAIL

Swap the Lillet Rosé for white grape juice with a small splash of pomegranate juice, and use sparkling water in place of prosecco. Add the orange and thyme. It's just as pretty and still feels special.

BATCH IT FOR HOSTING

To serve 6: combine 12 oz Lillet Rosé and 12 oz prosecco in a pitcher. Pour over ice in individual glasses and top each with a splash of club soda. Garnish as usual.

Because every drink deserves a beautiful moment.

A ritual we return to

Our cocktails are part of something bigger for us. They’re the beginning of Date Nite, a connection-centered experience we created to help you slow down, share a meal, and enjoy time with the one you love.

Each Date Nite is thoughtfully planned for you, so you are not stuck deciding what to cook or how to pull the night together. We pair one cocktail with a complete menu, a simple flow from prep to plate, and small details that make the evening feel easy and connected from start to finish.

It is not about perfection. It is about presence, and creating space to reconnect, whether that is with your partner or simply with yourself, over a really good meal.

How to Create an Intimate Date Night Space at Home

Our drop-leaf table has lived in a bed-and-breakfast, a storage unit, and a narrow hallway pass-through. It took years to find its purpose. This is the story of how it became the heart of Date Nite — and everything we've learned about creating a table for two that actually makes you want to stay.

How We Really Plan Our Date Night Menus

Last week I was sick. Nothing dramatic — just that slow, foggy kind of under-the-weather that dulls your appetite and makes everything feel like too much. So that became the menu. And the moment we sat down to eat it, I thought — this is why we do it this way.
