Yes, you definitely have to try panaché! It’s simply beer mixed with lemonade, the perfect summer drink to enjoy on the terrace of a French bistro!

Cool blog post! I miss Pastis and “citron pressé”… but not “café au lait”, because I think cappuccino is way much better .

Have you ever tried “panaché”?

Thanks Marion! No, I haven’t tried that. I’ll have to now. And I ♥ both cafe au lait AND cappuccino.

We make citron presses regularly here! No sugar though, just one or two lemons squeezed into a glass with water (sparkling or still) added. Cafe au lait is something I’ve been drinking since I was a child, and still the best way to have coffee (which reminds me I need to learn to froth milk). I had a Kir Royale for the first time up in Victoria, B.C. when at the Empress for tea with my aunt. I don’t do licorice, so sadly never had a pastis, although I’ve been told they’re amazing. And we made hot chocolate like that last year, with a small hot pepper, and it was out of this world amazing, but best served in petite quantities because as it cools you really do lose your spoon!

Oh, don’t get me wrong Poppy, I too love my wine. And Rose on a hot summer eve in Provence sounds perfect. Can I join you?

I *LOVE* Kir! We went crazy on that stuff when I lived in Paris … so much so that “that group” and I have Kir parties when we get together and my bridal party served them at my shower!
