Aviator (revised)

Generally, the Aviator is a bit too dry for me. The balance of maraschino liquor against creme de violette is more bitter than sweet. So, tonight I reversed the proportions of the two-3/4 oz creme de violette and 1/2 oz maraschino liqueur. Still a dry and citrusy drink, but not quite so bitter, and more colorful too. That's a Luxardo cherry at the bottom. On my list, making brandies cherries. Sounds like a good winter activity to me!
