What is a Pornstar Martini?

A pornstar martini is a cocktail made from passion fruit liqueur, passion fruit juice, vanilla vodka, lime juice and a little simple syrup. It is typically served with a glass of sparkling wine such as prosecco on the side. This cocktail is not a true martini but does carry the martini name. It was created in the early 2000s by a bar owner named Douglas Ankrah.

Vanilla vodka is a clear colored liquor that has a vodka base and an extra flavoring of vanilla added in by infusing the vodka with vanilla beans. Vodka itself is a nearly tasteless liquor that is made by distilling grains such as rye or even potatoes.

Passoa is a passion fruit liqueur It was made in the late 1980s. It originated in France, but has become popular in many different cocktails with its sweet passion fruit flavor. It is 20% alcohol by volume.
