Liberation
0
Gin shaken with St-Germain, lemon juice and crème de violette, finished with a lemon twist. Floral and tart, with the gin keeping it dry. Created by John of the Thursday Night Cocktail Association in Atlanta in 2011.
John of the Thursday Night Cocktail Association in Atlanta created Liberation in 2011, drawing on gin cocktails from the early 1900s and combining Plymouth gin, a floral liqueur and lemon juice. It was made for the Backstory crew shortly after International Women's Day, while the Tahrir Square demonstrations were under way, and V the P came up with the name.
