Violet-berry liqueur

Bottle of Creme Yvette for cocktail recipes

Violet-berry liqueur is our generic name for Crème Yvette, a beautiful ruby-violet liqueur made from violet petals, blackberries, raspberries, strawberries, currants, orange peel, vanilla, honey and spices. We don’t yet know of any substitutes for this unique liqueur and its mile-long ingredient list, but we’re always on the hunt!

Crème Yvette only returned to market in 2009 after a 40-year hiatus, and to this day it can be difficult to find. It’s a bit like crème de violette or raspberry liqueur, and either will do as a decent-enough substitute in a pinch.

Great drinks-great app

Great cocktail app. Very good list of drinks that actually are well made and tasty. I have used other apps that just were overloaded with tons of junk drinks. It feels like the creators of this app actually enjoyed making the drinks and decided which were good enough to add to the list. Really appreciate the perpetual updates drinks listing too. Hate paying for things more than once.
