Pommeau is a drink which can be served as an apéritif : Ivan Vautier uses it quite often as an ingredient. As the word pomme in its name suggests, it is made with apples, being fresh apple juice cut with the apple-based spirit Calvados.

Pommeau is just starting to become known outside Normandy. It has an ABV of 17 degrees, like its distant grape-based cousin, Pineau des Charentes.
