Directions
The Porno Gigi cocktail is an aperitif drink born from the rib of the Pornstar Martini, the creation of Douglas Ankrah based on passion fruit nectar, vanilla, passion fruit liqueur, and vodka.
A mythical cocktail, born a few years ago, in 2002, but consistently among the most loved ever, either for the alluring name or the charm of the incredible combination of vanilla and passion fruit.
But we want to go further. Indeed we want to return to Italy to personalize it with our ingredients and, at the same time, make it less sweet and sharper so that it can always be drunk at any time, both as an aperitif cocktail and as a recreational night drink.
Let’s see the ingredients of this twist, similar in approach but very different in taste, which is more nuanced and vibrant and much less sweet.
Grappa is the chosen distillate, passion fruit nectar, elderberry syrup to give a floral touch, vanilla, lime, and limoncello to finish with a zesty note.
Ingredients and doses to make the Porno Gigi cocktail
- 4 cl of Grappa
- 1 cl of limoncello
- 2 drops of vanilla essence
- 2 cl of lime juice
- 2 passion fruit
How to make the cocktail Porno Gigi
Squeeze lime and strain the juice.
Cut the passion fruit, extract the pulp, put it in a shaker, and pound with a pestle.
Add the ice, vanilla, grappa, lime juice, and limoncello, shake quickly and then pour into a well-cooled glass and add crushed ice.
If you want a less rustic-looking cocktail, strain the passion fruit pulp before shaking.
Decorate with a sprig of mint or rosemary and serve.
