Aviation - Cocktail Recipe

Wondering how to make Aviation? Cocktail Builder will help!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 oz of Gin
  • 1/4 oz of Maraschino liqueur (alt: cherry liqueur)
  • 3-5 pinches of sugar

Instructions

Fill cocktail shaker with ice. Juice the lemon and add to the shaker. Add a little sugar, if desired. Pour in gin and maraschino, and shake. Serve straight up in a cocktail glass.

The strict recipe does not have any sugar, but I like to add a little.
