Wheels-Up Cocktail Recipe
Updated: Sep 10, 2021
Our Wheels-Up cocktail is a spin on the classic Aviation cocktail traditionally made with gin, maraschino liqueur, crème de violette, and lemon juice. We used J.T. Meleck Vodka instead of gin and the result is a tasty and fun cocktail perfect for Mardi Gras celebrations big and small.

Wheels-Up Ingredients
2 oz. J.T. Meleck Vodka
½ oz. maraschino liqueur
½ oz. fresh-squeezed lemon juice
Crème de violette

Wheels-Up Directions
Combine J.T. Meleck Vodka, maraschino liqueur, lemon juice, and ice in a cocktail shaker and shake well for approximately 10 seconds.
Strain into a martini glass and top with crème de violette.
