Spring has sprung, and there's no better way to celebrate the beginning of the season than with St. Germain. Made from handpicked elderflowers native to France, it makes an elegant addition whether you’re planning a romantic picnic for two or partying outdoors with friends. Its subtle flavor allows it to pair easily with complementary spirits.

Although crafted from a flower, St-Germain tastes of pear, citrus, and tropical fruits. Light and refreshing, it has about half the sugar content by volume versus traditional syrupy liqueurs. Its subtle flavor allows it to pair easily with complementary spirits. A classic celebratory pairing combines St-Germain with Champagne, but bartenders in Seattle are using it with more than just bubbly. Vodka, gin, rye, rum, tequila and bourbon all play well with St-Germain.
