BAYviation

1 1⁄2 oz Gin, Bombay Sapphire (INFUSED: see Notes)
1⁄2 oz Maraschino Liqueur, Luxardo
1⁄4 oz Crème de Violette, Rothman & Winter
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
Instructions

Shake with ice and strain into a frozen coupe glass.

Notes

--- The gin is very heavily infused/soaked in Bay Leaves.
--- A week ago my pal Mike G. told me to soak some gin in bay leaves, so I did. I began soaking a small amount of Bombay Blue Sapphire Gin in a large amount of bay leaves.
--- Today I did a taste test ..... WOW !! I didn't realize how quickly the gin would "absorb" the bay flavors. Good Stuff !!!!

History

My favorite cocktail is the Aviation, so it is the perfect choice for this first experiment with the BAY-infused gin.
