Robert Cooper, the creator of St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur, has recently located his family's old recipe for Creme Yvette. Last produced in 1969, this popular cocktail ingredient has been revived and is now available! The original suppliers for many of the raw materials were no longer in business, but new purveyors of the needed ingredients were discovered. Cooper sourced dried violet petals from Provence, and the berry maceration (a mix of blackberries, red raspberries, wild strawberries, and cassis) from Burgundy. A spice blend of honey, orange peel and vanilla were then added to complete the flavor profile. Armed with a few old bottles from his family's stash, Cooper was able to test the newer version against the original formula and has deemed the revival a success.
