Among the many exotic and tempting cocktails taking over the bar landscape, one in particular stands out this year: the Pornstar Martini. This trendy drink has become a real star in bars worldwide and is taking the hearts of long drink lovers by storm.
Originally created in the late 1990s by British bartender Douglas Ankrah, the Pornstar Martini has made a remarkable journey through the mixology scene. Its bold name and combination of exotic flavors make it a real eye-catcher on any cocktail menu.
The key to a perfect Pornstar Martini lies in the balanced mix of ingredients. The cocktail consists primarily of vanilla vodka, passion fruit liqueur, fresh lime juice and prosecco.
But the highlight of the drink is undoubtedly the small addition of fresh passion fruit, which not only gives the cocktail a decorative touch, but also a delicious and refreshing note.
Here is a shopping list:
You should use a cocktail shaker to mix the cocktail. Because: A good cocktail shaker is more than just a container for mixing ingredients. It is an instrument that intensifies the taste and look of the cocktail. The bar tool not only helps to mix the ingredients, but also to cool and whisk. The Pornstar Martini becomes cloudy as you shake it and finally gets its distinctive layer of foam. A classic cocktail shaker consists of three parts: the base cup, a bar strainer (also strainer) and the lid.
To serve the exotic drink in style, it is best to use martini glasses or champagne glasses. They have a long, thin stem that allows you to hold the glass like this without affecting the temperature of the drink. The style also helps avoid fingerprints on the glass. The glass has a wide, open bowl that tapers towards the top. The shape helps concentrate the flavors of the cocktail.
The Pornstar Martini has made a name for itself not only because of its unique taste, but also because of its popularity in pop culture. Many celebrities and influencers have declared the cocktail their favorite, helping it spread further.
In bars around the world, the Pornstar Martini has become a staple. Its popularity is evident not only in the trendy city center bars, but also in upscale restaurants and exclusive clubs. The versatility of the drink allows it to be offered in different versions, for example with different types of vodka or as a non-alcoholic alternative. Cheers!
