“Folle Envie was inspired by an old recipe from Zilda, my extravagant great-grandmother who ran a country store and mixed up this homemade drink to share with her neighbors and customers every Saturday afternoon. Eight years later, I was inspired by a crazy idea to recreate her recipe to honor Zilda who loved to share her recipes and life with everyone around her.” -Estelle Sauvage, co-founder of Folle Envie and Zilda’s great-granddaughter Folle Envie means “crazy desire” or “crazy idea,” and is a perfect description of how Estelle Sauvage decided to recreate her great-grandmother Zilda’s recipe. Using a base of organic white grapes from the Southwest flavored with homemade cardamom and lemon peel extracts, Folle Envie is a delicious low-alcohol aperitif on its own, and we love it even more mixed with Archibald tonic and served over ice to make a delicious, refreshing, and easy cocktail.
