Stratosphere

This pale purple drink, adapted from 'The Stork Club Bar Book,' is similar to a Kir Royale but made with creme de violette - a French liqueur made with violets- plus two cloves and a twist of lemon. The clove garnish may seem superfluous at first, but it adds a kick of winter spice that balances out the drink's floral notes. Plus, they act as dazzling vectors for bubbles in the glass.

This cocktail is alcoholic, so drink responsibly! Best served in a Champagne Glass, though any glass works!

Feel free to get creative with substitutions — try different fruit types, sugar substitutes, or liquor brands. Crafting cocktails should be fun!
