Kir
The Kir is a classic French cocktail that combines dry white wine, typically a Bourgogne Aligoté, with a splash of crème de cassis, a blackcurrant liqueur. This refreshing drink is often garnished with a twist of lemon and is known for its fruity, slightly sweet flavor, making it a popular aperitif. Its vibrant color and delightful taste make it a favorite for warm-weather gatherings.
