Violette & MaraschinoSpring

Rams Horn

The Rams Horn is gin, crème de violette and Luxardo Maraschino, stirred with orange bitters and served over ice with a lemon twist. It is spirit-forward and floral, with a cherry note and a pale blue-violet color. A stirred, stronger cousin of the Aviation for spring.

History

The Rams Horn is a modern recipe in the Aviation family. It drops the lemon and serves the drink stirred and on the rocks, which makes it stronger and more aromatic than the classic shaken version.

How are you making it? ⓘ Batching includes dilution water. Pre-batched cocktails need added water to replace the melt from stirring or shaking. We use Jeffrey Morgenthaler's standard: 18% for spirit-forward drinks, 25% for shaken.
