Review:

Just as the name suggests, only classically an Aviation should include crème de violette so if you feel this is lacking then consider adding 2.5ml (¼ a barspoon)– anymore and the parma violet floral notes overpower the strawberry.

History:

Adapted from a recipe created by Richard Godwin and published via his The Spirits on Substack, in turn his recipe is a strawberry-infused riff on Takumis Aviation.

Alcohol content:

  • 1.3 standard drinks
  • 26.89% alc./vol. (53.78° proof)
  • 18.8 grams of pure alcohol
