July 15-Aviation No 1

We are on a roll with the cocktails recently. All of them have been banger that I love and we continue that streak today. The Aviation No 1 is one of my favourites I’ve tried all time. The floral nature of its signature ingredient, creme de violette, works so well with the gin and the lemon, plus you have the marashino adding a dimension other thasn just sweetness. As for why this is the Aviation No 1, when creme de violette was less availible, the no 2 version was created without it.
