The Aviation cocktail is a classic and refreshing drink that dates back to the early 1900s. It was created by Hugo Ensslin, a bartender at the Hotel Wallick in New York City. The cocktail gets its name from the striking blue hue, reminiscent of the sky, that is achieved by a splash of Creme De Violette. This floral and slightly sweet liqueur pairs perfectly with the sharpness of gin and the tartness of lemon juice. The addition of Maraschino cherry liqueur adds a subtle hint of cherry to the mix, creating a complex and balanced flavour profile. The Aviation is a beloved cocktail among gin lovers, known for its smooth and refreshing taste with a hint of floral and fruity notes. This classic cocktail is a must-try for anyone looking to explore the world of mixology.
