Sweet violets supposedly were a gift from Zeus the king of the Greek pantheon as a comfort to Io (eye-oh) for whom he loved but has to turn into a heifer to save her from Hera’s wrath!
Sweet violets have a very unique sweet pastelly taste and a strong scent.
As a drink it can be used exactly like Crème de violette but as it has been refined with Wild juniper and a unique set of botanicals in our GIN it is also equally as good on it’s own, with lemonade, mixed with ice cream or in baking!
Try making an Aviator cocktails with this much superior Violet liqueur!
