Hey it’s Friday again. I have been working day and night all week (and looks like I will be working most of the weekend as well) so a little break and a lovely cocktail are very much in order.

I truly adore the taste of passion fruit. I love them in baking – passionfruit curd is incredible in tarts (note to self: must make some very soon) – but they are even more suited to cocktails.

This passion fruit martini is elegant and sophisticated and just so, so lovely. I have used fresh passion fruit but you can buy passionfruit purée online to make things easier – especially useful if you plan to serve a few of these babies.

I have made this without the passionfruit liqueur and it is still delicious though it loses some of its punch. Take a look at the recipe card notes for links to these products.

As with all cocktails, make sure you taste before serving – you might need to adjust your drink. Dip a straw into the shaker and evaluate your Passionfruit Martini.

Fresh passion fruit juice be very sour or quite sweet which will affect the overall flavour. If the cocktail is too sweet add a little more lemon juice, if it is too sour you can add more sugar syrup.

INGREDIENTS 

  • Passionfruit liqueur: try Passoa, Edmond Briottet Fruits de la Passion (Passion Fruit) Liqueur, or Bols Passionfruit liqueur
  • Passion fruit purée: I recommend Funkin Pro  if you plan to make a large number of cocktails. Note that once opened it needs to be used within 8 days. Monin passion fruit purée  is another option with longer self life (needs to be consumed within 4 weeks) but it’s a bit cloying and thick so so use sparingly!
  • Homemade passion fruit syrup or Monin passion fruit syrup (flavoured sugar syrup) 

How to make a Passion Fruit Martini

Full measurements and instructions can be found on the printable recipe card at the bottom of the page. Please take a look at the steps and video before attempting this recipe!

STEP 1 Fill your martini glass with ice. Halve the passionfruit. Slice one thin sliver and set aside. Scoop the rest out the flesh / seeds into a small sieve. Press at the pulp with the back of the spoon and extract the juice (into your cocktail shaker).

STEP 2 Add all the remaining ingredients and fill the shaker with ice. Shake vigorously until frost forms on the outside of the shaker.

STEP 3 Discard the ice from the martini glass. Strain the cocktail into the glass. Decorate with a fine slice of passionfruit.

    Sounds great, but I am not familiar with passion fruit liqueur. What is the brand of the kind you use?

    Thanks!

      Hi Chad – Briottet, Giffard and Passoa are some brands that make it (you can find them on Amazon in the UK). I really like the Briottet brand.
