Valentine's Cocktail

Aviation Cocktail

Happy Valentine’s Day gin lovers! Roses are red, violets are blue, and so is this stunning Aviation cocktail.

This cocktail is a real showstopper, and this classic mixes floral and fragrant violet with maraschino. The match of these with the gin botanicals from Hidden Curiosities gin, along with the incredible colour, makes this one a firm favourite at my table. 

It's very simple to make, so it's th‬e perfect way to impress your date this Valentine's weekend.
