Passionfruit Martini 5 Litre Box
This cheeky cocktail was invented by the famous Douglas Ankrah, founder of London’s Lab bar, during his time working at the Townhouse in Knightsbridge. In his mind, he put together the alluring flavour combination of passionfruit and vanilla, originally calling it the Maverick Martini in a hat tip to a “dodgy club” in Cape Town.
Since then, the cocktail has enjoyed a vogue in dozens of countries, rising to be one of the top ten cocktails of all time. Not altogether unsurprising for a risqué-named drink made from what is widely considered one of the most delicious fruits in the world, the passionfruit, famous for it’s deliciously tart, aromatic flavour.
Shaken over ice and served cold, this is the perfect summer afternoon cooler, with the velvety sophistication to transition smoothly through sunset into the night-time. Feel your senses come alive with exotic music, energy and passion. Let the tropical sweetness fold into the luxuriant vanilla, and allow your naughty side to awaken.
THE STORY
In our search to find the beautiful travel story behind the passionfruit, our journey led to the exotic, sun-drenched continent of South America, circulating around the rugged, yet beautiful landscapes of Northern Argentina. Being a country known for their passion, be that music, art or people, it’s only fitting they should be one of the largest producers (and enjoyers) of this culinary treasure.
With our obsession for authenticity, we didn't stop until we found a company who produced not a Fairtrade vodka, made from organic Fairtrade quinoa grown in the rarefied heights of the beautiful Altiplano of the Andes mountains. We were a little weak at the knees by this point.
Built on a mission to support farmers in developing economies, Fair spirits ensure the workers producing the quinoa and passionfruit are paid a fair price, to support both their families and local economies to grow and expand sustainably. Which suited us perfectly, because when you’re sipping on a cocktail this decadently moreish and indulgent, it certainly helps to know every mouthful is balancing the naughtiness with a little good in the world!
