Lillet Blanc x Emily in Paris Limited Edition Aperitif

Lillet Blanc x Emily in Paris Limited Edition Aperitif is the limited-edition bottling of the classic French aperitif, released by Maison Lillet in partnership with the Netflix series Emily in Paris. Inside the couture-inspired bottle — its label illustrates the Lillet woman in looks drawn from Emily's closet, beret and all — is the same Lillet Blanc made in Podensac, just south of Bordeaux, where Lillet has been crafted since 1872: a blend of Bordeaux white wines, principally Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc, with macerated citrus liqueurs from sweet and bitter orange peels and quinine bark, aged in oak and bottled at 17% ABV (34 proof) in a 750mL bottle. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.

The Original, Dressed for Paris

Lillet Blanc is the house's original and most iconic aperitif, the modern successor to Kina Lillet, blended in Podensac from rigorously selected Bordeaux wines and fruit macerations crafted on site — sweet oranges, bitter oranges and quinine from South America — then rested in oak. The Emily in Paris collaboration dressed that heritage for the series' fourth season. Pair it with its sibling, the Lillet Rose x Emily in Paris Limited Edition Aperitif, compare it with the classic bottling, the Lillet Blanc Aperitif, or browse the full aperitif shelf.

Tasting Notes

Fresh and fruity: candied orange, honey and lime with floral notes and a hint of quinine bitterness, full and fleshy on the palate with a long, aromatic finish.

How to Enjoy

Serve it the classic way — very chilled, over ice with a slice of orange and a splash of tonic — or put it to work in a Vesper, a spritz, or the Emily Lillet Royale Blanc with Champagne and peach. More regional pours live in our Bordeaux collection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the aperitif inside different from regular Lillet Blanc?
No. The liquid is the same classic Lillet Blanc — Bordeaux white wines, citrus liqueurs and quinine from Podensac, oak-aged — presented in the limited-edition Emily in Paris bottle. If you want the standard label, we also carry the classic Lillet Blanc Aperitif.

How strong is it and what size is the bottle?
17% ABV (34 proof), in a 750mL bottle.

What cocktails use Lillet Blanc?
The Vesper is the famous one, but it also shines in spritzes, a Corpse Reviver No. 2 and a simple Lillet and tonic. Refrigerate after opening and serve very chilled.
