The French Blonde is a beautiful cocktail featuring French liqueur Lillet Blanc, elderflower liqueur and dry gin accented by sunny, freshly-squeezed grapefruit juice. We like to use St. Germain elderflower liqueur paired with Broker’s dry gin and the resulting drink is a lovely mixture of floral, fruity, citrus and oh là là!
