Marianne at Midnight

 

How could I resist a drink that has a floating flower petal in it?  Such showmanship...  Besides, as unlikely as it seems, I already had a bottle of Crème de Violette on hand, from a different recipe.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 ounces Scotch
1 ounce Crème de Violette
1/4 ounce Tuaca
pansy, or other edible flower, for garnish

Directions:
Stir for 30 seconds in an ice-filled shaker. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Float flower on top for drama!  Enjoy!

I served this as a dessert drink, with a White Chocolate Crème Brulee.  Here's the recipe:
