I want to make cocktails this Christmas and am starting to shop for the ingredients. In particular I want to make Porn Star Martinis. Does anyone else make them successfully and if so do you use vanilla syrup as has been recommended to me and if so......... where do you get it from.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I know you can use Vanilla Vodka but apparently the syrup is better ?

I've never used vanilla syrup, just the vanilla vodka. I also used the passion fruit/mango purée as the passion fruit I bought didn't have enough pulp inside them. Didn't taste any different to me either.

I use Absolut vanilla vodka, Passoa passion fruit liqueur and Funkin Pro passion fruit puree to make mine. Delicious.

Interested in this thread?

I don't make Porn starts but use the Monin Gum syrup for espresso martinis, bought it from Tippl which is just a fancier division of bargain booze I think Grin

I know in some recipes it tells you how to make it at home though so that's an option too.

A simple but impressive cocktail I make frequently is French martinis
40 ml chambord
50ml vodka
60ml pineapple juice.

Those are not the official quantities supplied by chambord but the ones I always use.

I make pornstars the same way as the poster above. Don't forget the shot of prosecco.

I use the exact same ingredients. I also freeze the passionfruit purée in ice cube trays so I can take a couple cubes out and make one whenever I like (the purée says to use within a few days of opening). They defrost very quickly. So good!

I change the proportions slightly too as I like the chambord
