30 ml fresh lemon juice
15 ml honey syrup

Preparation
Fill a long drink glass with ice cubes.
Pour in PECETTE Bitterly.
Add the fresh lemon juice and honey syrup.

Tasting experience
The nose immediately evokes the Mediterranean: rosemary, citrus and a delicate floral touch of lavender. The attack is lively and lemony, quickly balanced by the subtle sweetness of honey. Notes of bitter orange and wormwood then appear, bringing an elegant, rich and aperitif dimension. The finish is long, complex and particularly thirst-quenching. The rosemary reinforces the herbaceous character of the drink and evokes the scents of the garrigue after a hot summer's day.
In this cocktail
Bitterly
PECETTE Bitterly draws its inspiration from the great traditional bitters.
Its style embodies the refined alliance between bitter orange, rosemary and aromatic herbs.
Its structure is expressed through the freshness of dealcoholized wine and the precision of botanical distillation.
Our aperitif offers a harmonious and singular tasting experience, born from the meeting of the liveliness of bitter orange, the depth of quassia amara, the herbal imprint of rosemary and the sweetness of spices.
Tasting: neat over ice with an orange zest, or with an artisanal tonic.
