Lemons, Lemonade, or ... Aviation?

Posted by Nerdyy

Life has a way of handing us lemons - sometimes very bitter and very tart ones! And we humans have a way of holding onto those memories that bring us back to these lemons. The old saying of course is make lemonade but that is so blase (yes there should be an accent aigu there, but I have no idea how to do it).

So, take the lemon, squeeze out some lemon juice, mix up some gin, creme de violette and maraschino cherry liqueur, add a cherry and a lemon peel to garnish and VOILA you have a stunningly beautiful creation aka Aviation! Enjoy it while soaking up the Summer sunshine :D

Recipe:

2 oz Gin
1/4 oz Maraschino Liqueur
1/2 oz fresh Lemon Juice
1/4 oz Creme de Violette
Cherry (optional)
Lemon Peel Garnish


And what a stunningly beautiful color it is!

CHEERS :D
