Aviation Cocktail

We haven’t been drinking many Aviations lately. But they are an old favorite. This one was particularly delicious. Absences makes the palate grow stronger?

Aviation Cocktail

Makes two drinks.

3 ounces gin
1 ounce maraschino liqueur
1 ounce lemon juice
1 teaspoon creme de violette

Combine all in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake vigorously and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a maraschino cherry. Or two.

 

Cocktail hour often includes some silliness these days.
