🥃 Serve in: Nick and Nora Glass
Pretty enough to fool you. It’s equal parts gin, Cointreau, crème de Violette and lemon, stirred into a pale lavender that looks like it belongs at a garden party. Then the gin shows up, the lemon bites, and the violet lingers like perfume on a coat that isn’t yours. It’s beautiful on the surface, with plenty going on underneath, much like the flower. Remember the warning "calm surface, deep waters".
Fill a mixing glass with a rock of ice and add ingredients. Stir until chilled. Double strain into a Nick and Nora.
