It's Delightful, It's Delicious, It's De-lovely...

It's Champagne Violette, and it made me swoon when I saw it--love at

first sight! Champagne with violet liqueur and a blackberry. Yes, violet

liqueur...could there be anything more charming? I didn't think so, so

I went on a search. Turns out the bottles are as beautiful as the drinks...

Creme de Violette was a common ingredient in many cocktails in the early part of the 20th century, during which Cole Porter lived in Paris and also wrote many of his hit songs, including "It's De-Lovely."

The violet is the emblem of Toulouse
