Since Maraschino liqueur isn't ny favourite I tried this out and it's honestly perfect for my taste buds. It's violette forward, similar to the Aviation, but without the astringency that comes with Maraschino. I used Dry Curacao and to me that worked fabulously. It's really great to see violette where it gets to shine without overpowering or getting overpowered by the other ingredients!

Accidentally used bianco vermouth rather than Cointreau, having Arsenic and Old Lace in mind.
Still delish!

Made it with 15 ml of lime, it was pretty well balanced, the créme de violette wasn't as overpowering as I expected. It's definitely more approachable than the Aviation.

I always make this when I have a little bit of lemon and lime juice left over. Tastes like refreshers (the fizzy fruit sweets) in alcoholic liquid form. A firm house favourite.

Not much into "floral" cocktails, but this was really good. Nicely balanced. Nose was very "citrusy" and the Creme de Viollete was very prevalent upfront on the palate, with a nice citrus finish. A definite recommend.

Very gin forward, would have to try out with other gins. Rest of it is a nice base to round things off. I wonder how it would go with Botanist or Old Pilot's.

Just tried this (with all lime) - a bit hit. Will definitely try again!

Went with the full half shot of Lime. Wow what a winner! Dryer the Gin the better. Family Fav. now.
