Come Fly With Me

Today Alan and I ventured to Inglewood Farm for their weekly Saturday market, and what did we discover but a bumper crop of gorgeously juicy Meyer lemons. Tonight before dinner as we were listening to some old Sinatra, we decided to fix something that reminded us of the slightly hazy winter sky and the fresh, floral flavor of that tantalizing citrus.

The Aviation Cocktail



Combine together in a shaker:

1.5oz Gin
1.5oz Fresh-squeezed lemon juice 
3/4oz Maraschino Liqueur
1/2oz Creme de Violette Liqueur

Add ice and shake vigorously. Strain into chilled coupe glass. Rim glass with a lemon twist.
