To make a violet kir you pour a tablespoon of violet liquer in the bottom of a champagne flute, then carefully pour chilled champagne in until the glass is filled, tyring not to disturb the liquer. There should be a distinct contrast. It is a variation of the traditional kir that uses creme de cassis (a currant liquer).
