Passion Fruit Vodkatini
Wonderfully simple Vodka Martini that delivers a clean and crisp Passion Fruit buzz. The simplest of recipes can often be the best, and this example is no exception. The rich flavour and sharp edge of the Passion Fruit requires little accompaniment. The recipe comes courtesy of Simon Difford, although its been renamed here for clarity.
Mix
2 shots of Vodka
0.5 shots of Sugar Syrup
1 Passion Fruit
Shake
Halve and scoop out the Passion Fruit, muddle with the Vodka in the mixing tin, add the other ingredients, add lots of ice, shake, and fine strain.
Pour
Serve in a Martini glass and garnish with a passion fruit shell (for show, a splash of vodka will burn from the shell with a blue flame).
