Sherry?

Too early for a Martini?

Kir Royale?

Other suggestions?

Has to be a dry sherry. Or a Manzanilla.

Who gives a stuff if it before lunch.

For Kir Royale, swap Limoncello for the cassis (we do it with Prosecco instead of champers)

Negroni for the brave. Have two if you are willing to commit marital suicide.

Aperol spritz!
Bellini/mimosa
Bloody Mary
If you like negroni, you can have a lighter version called americano, or an even more lethal one called negroni sbagliato!

Pineau des charentes. Those that know will likely agree. However, a good number don't know...

I get through the stuff by the truckload. Simply fabulous.

Can't think of anything worse. I'd rather put lemon Cif in it.

Oh yes. Now we're talking. Brilliant suggestion.

(I have a bottle lurking on the wine rack. Time to get that chilled....)

Why change a winning combo.

When I retire I'll be drinking G&T for breakfast.
