I needed to take the Pornstar Martini off the menu because it just gets in the way. I needed to come up with an alternative that could be more like a Martini. It had to be something that could bridge the gap between shaken, sweet, purée drinkers and the stirred, boozy, bitter drinkers. Kevin Kos inspired me with his clarified pornstar martini episode. I bought myself some Pectinex, clarified some passion fruit purée and turn some of it into syrup. This was my starting point. One of my favourite flavour combinations is passion fruit and white chocolate, so I wash some cocoa butter in vodka. To give some balance to this I decided to keep the flavours of the pornstar martini. I gave Prosecco a foolproof role in the cocktail, instead of being shotted, sipped, or discarded by the guest. To add the bitterness of a martini, vanilla bitters were a no-brainer. After playing around with the ratios and Flavour Blaster bubbles, I put this on my menu at Girlfriend Bar in Clapham, London. This was November 2021. It’s one of my best sellers. I batch the whole thing, except for the bitters.
