Subtle and playful and yet plenty potent, thank you gin. And the violet, orange, and lemon flavors are in perfect harmony, thank you Simon. I used Tanqueray export strength, Combier Liqueur D'Orange, Rothman & Winter Crème De Violette.

Very good and interesting cocktail, because the violet shines much better than in an Aviation and complements the gin very nicely.

Very nice indeed!

Oh this was lovely, very floral and just a touch fruity, and not as bone dry as the aviation, which makes it a better choice for pleasing a crowd in my opinion. Debating on trying to substitute the juice with citric acid solution and stir the thing, might yield a pretty colored drink

Very nice cocktail but definitely on the sour side. For me it is closer to an 8. Admittedly this may relate to the lemon variety I used, Eureka, which if I'm correct is more acidic than Lisbon both of which in Canada at least are the most available in groceries. I will try next time with a Meyer lemon. As well, I'm curious to try with cognac as the main spirit.

I made the original version with cognac and it is delicious, highly recommended, I need to try the gin version as well.
