šŸ“œ History

Douglas Ankrah created the Pornstar Martini at Townhouse bar in Knightsbridge, London in 2002. Originally called the Maverick Martini after a Cape Town strip club that inspired him, Ankrah chose the provocative new name because he imagined it as "something a porn star would drinkā€”pure indulgence, sexy, fun and evocative." The cocktail combines vanilla vodka, passion fruit purĆ©e, and PassoĆ£ liqueur, served with a shot of Champagne on the side. This theatrical presentationā€”plus the irresistible sweet-tart passion fruit flavorā€”helped it become the UK's most-ordered cocktail by 2018. The Champagne sidecar was intended as a palate cleanser, best sipped alternately with the main drink. When the cocktail spread to LAB bar in Soho (which Ankrah co-owned), it became a phenomenon that launched countless variations worldwide.
