Femme Fatale: A Pornstar Martini

Rather than serving sparkling wine alongside their Pornstar Martini variation, Austin’s The Long Goodbye adds it directly to the glass. “A vanilla infusion lends to a drier finish than the traditional addition of vanilla-flavored liqueur, with the passion fruit providing a citrusy, floral, and melon-forward brightness highlighted by the toasty cremant,” says Seth Odland, bar lead and beverage director. 

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 oz. vodka
  • 1 oz. fresh lime juice
  • 3/4 oz. falernum
  • 3/4 oz. passion fruit vanilla syrup
  • 1 oz. sparkling wine
  • Tools:shaker, strainer, fine-mesh strainer, barspoon
  • Glass:coupe
  • Garnish:hibiscus dust (optional)

Preparation

Pour the sparkling wine into a chilled coupe. Shake the remaining ingredients and fine strain into the coupe. Optional: Shake hibiscus dust on the surface of the cocktail and swirl with a barspoon.
Passion Fruit Vanilla SyrupIf using frozen purée, thaw 2 1/4 oz. of passion fruit purée (Long Goodbye uses Perfect Purée) completely and bring to room temperature. Add 2 1/4 oz. of granulated sugar and 1/3 tsp. of vanilla syrup and whisk to combine completely. Refrigerate to store. Makes approximately 6 servings and will keep for 2 weeks in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Hibiscus DustUsing a spice grinder, pulse 1/4 cup of dried hibiscus flowers to a fine powder. Store in a shaker. Makes approximately 6 servings.
