Creme or liqueur de violette has become a mainstay of my bar, even though, in truth, I don’t use it often. I’m drawn to floral flavours, and the product from Benoit Serres is basically considered the best in the world. I got mine from Europe but it might be available in the US by now. Superlative in the classic Aviation cocktail, the subtle orange and floral flavours of this product would make even the most anti cocktail person fall in love with spirits.
