You have received lots of advice on doing this.

As others have stated, one of the easiest ways is simply run 1/2" or 3/4" PVC plastic pipe above ground from the spigot to the Lanai and then clamp it to the aluminum frame.

One of the tricks to get from the spigot to the PVC pipe is simply to use a short, flexible metal braided hose like you see for a washing machine.. It has female fittings on both ends, one for the spigot and one for the head end of the PVC pipe. That way it can be easily disconnected and allowed to drain if it really gets below freezing in the winter.
