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
