Sky Blossom

The Sky Blossom cocktail is a classic libation that embodies the essence of a clear, calm sky. This delightful concoction combines the floral notes of crème de violette with the crispness of gin and the zing of lemon, resulting in a perfectly balanced and visually stunning drink. Its pale blue hue, reminiscent of a clear day, makes it as appealing to the eyes as it is to the palate. Originally documented in 1916 by a German bartender in America, the Aviation has since become a timeless classic in the world of mixology.
