Aviation
This is, to our minds, one of the most perfect cocktails ever invented: delicate, balanced, mysterious, and beautiful. We prefer the recipe from Doug Ford at cold-glass.com. He advises that it should be made “small, very cold, and emphatically sour.” After trying it ourselves, we can’t help but agree.
Ingredients
- 2 parts Gin
- ¾ part Lemon juice
- ½ part Maraschino
- ¼ part Crème de violette
Instructions
Shake with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Drop a stemless cherry into the glass, or garnish with a lemon twist.
