Boë Violet Gin is based on their award-winning Boë Superior Gin recipe, which is known for its earthy and floral flavor notes. A few of the botanicals used in their gin are cassia bark, rose petals, orange, ginger, licorice, and almonds. If you aren’t able to find any violet liqueur or syrup, this recipe is still delicious when made with a lavender syrup. It’s not exactly the same, but lavender and peach are another stellar flavor combination that works great with gin.

Gins that use the parma violet often try to resemble the taste of these popular British sweets as closely as possible.

What on earth should I garnish my new parma violet gin with? TW Kempton is a relatively cheap alcohol brand that is only sold at some places. But don’t get fooled by this.
