History

First created in New York in the early 1900s, the Aviation became a pale-blue icon thanks to its rare floral twist. Its mix of bright citrus, cherry complexity, and violet perfume made it one of the most striking cocktails of its era. Though it briefly disappeared, modern revivals brought it back into the spotlight. It’s admired for its delicate balance of sharpness and elegance. A sip of Aviation feels like drifting into a sky of light and color.
