From an unlikely source, the Metro, in an article on Lillet, comes this wonderful aperitif, Le Printemps cocktail. (Not a true cocktail, of course; is it a rickey?)
Le Printemps
2 oz Lillet (blanc)
1/2 oz Lime juice
1/2 oz Simple syrup
4 fresh Mint leaves
3 slices Cucumber
Muddle all but Lillet. Add ice and Lillet. Shake, strain into a coupe, and garnish with a cucumber slice, and a mint leaf.
The article mentions being able to drink one at Bobo, in NYC, but I am uncertain whether it is a Bobo creation. Doing a search on the drink returned no results.
