Crème de violette

Crème de violette is a delicate, barely-sweet liqueur made from violet flower petals. It’s responsible for the gorgeous dusky hues of the Aviation, a drink which for years was printed without its most important ingredient due to the dearth of the stuff in the United States and elsewhere. Thank goodness it’s back in stock – the Aviation is one of our favorite cocktails.

Love it

Love it. Such a great idea and it is executed really well. A must have app for any party situation. Amaze your friends with great drinks anytime, anywhere. I can't count how many times I've been in a spot where this would have changed the direction of an evening with friends. The suggestions are really well groomed, not a crummy drink in the list.
