Name: Le Saintongeais
Prep time: 3 min
Yield: 1 serving
Cuisine: Cocktail
Ingredients: 3 oz Pineau Des Charentes White; 1 tsp Triple Sec Liqueur; 1 dash Angostura® Bitters

Le Saintongeais is a bright, slightly sweet aperitif-style cocktail with the honeyed grape character of Pineau des Charentes lifted by a splash of orange from triple sec and a hint of spice from Angostura bitters. Served over broken ice with a lemon twist, it looks pale and inviting and offers an easy, refreshing sipper worth trying when you want a low-proof, flavor-forward alternative to heavier cocktails.
