We have got the inventor of the world-famous Porn Star Martini (Douglas Ankrah) on and interviewing today.<sup>\u2021<\/sup>\u00a0 Developed in 2002 at the Townhouse in Knightsbridge, London, UK. It\u2019s now become a global phenomenon. Let\u2019s chat to Douglas and then I\u2019m gonna go on to nervously recreate this cocktail afterwards. See you in a bit.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Hey guys welcome to <i>The Mess Mixologist<\/i> and as mentioned previously, I\u2019m extremely excited to have Douglas Ankrah with us today, the inventor of the world famous Pornstar Martini. Welcome to the show Douglas.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 It\u2019s a pleasure Ben, great of you to have me on the show. I really love it. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Thanks for coming on. So within the bartender and mixology scene, I mean you\u2019re an extremely famous guy, your cocktails extremely famous globally, but for those that don\u2019t know you and know that you\u2019re the inventor of it tell us a bit more about you, where it came from, what was it called and the reason behind the events in it.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Well, the Porn Star Martini was created in a in a bar that I had called the Townhouse in 2002. I recall that day very, very, very well cuz you know trying to create a cocktail, I was so surprised, it\u2019s not easy. You know you gotta have a concept. You gotta have a vessel. You gotta have a story behind any drink that you create as a mixologist.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Right.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 So I used to go to a strip club in Cape Town when I was writing in my book <i>Cocktails: Shaken and Stirred<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 So when I came back, the place that I went to is called Mavericks in Cape Town. Okay. So when I got to London and released my book, I opened myself a bar called the Townhouse. One of my bars is called the Townhouse in Knightsbridge.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 So when I created the cocktail I wanted a cocktail that was kinda provoking so that young people could drink it and also not offend the elders. The Pornstar Martini has got two names. It\u2019s called the Maverick Martini of the Strip club Mavericks in Cape Town and it\u2019s called the Porn Star Martini if you\u2019re young, you\u2019re confident, you\u2019re daring, you don\u2019t care what you say you know.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 But unfortunately, Maverick didn\u2019t take off.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 OK.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 The name Maverick. The Porn Star became a huge hit in my bars and then traveled throughout the UK and globally. So I\u2019m very proud, but the Pornstar Martini has three or four things going for it. One is the name.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yup.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Two. It\u2019s the serve, the theater and the ritual. Like any other thing when it\u2019s done well, it can be amazing. You know it can be really good, but you\u2019ve gotta make it the way I create it and unfortunately a lot of bars tend not to do that. They take a shortcut for example.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I mean, that\u2019s one thing that I kind of get quite annoyed at in the market that I\u2019m in specifically, which is gin mills, which was something that I wanted to talk to you about. So as the inventor of the drink and someone who who knows what it should taste like you know, he knows how it should be served. What are your views on the plethora of cheap, in my opinion, cheap nasty rip offs of your drink?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 You know what, I\u2019m ever so grateful that drink is very famous, you know. But, if you\u2019re gonna copy me, copy me in style, don\u2019t bastardize it. And there are just so many of them, from M &amp; S (Marks &amp; Spencer) to just everyone and honestly speaking as a mixologist, someone who knows how to make drinks and create drinks. I\u2019m actually full of this comparison, its such a falsehood of the public buying into this rubbish. Horrible nasty drinks, because it\u2019s not a Porn Star Martini that you are buying. There\u2019s some really, really bad copies out there, you know. That\u2019s why I brought out my two variants.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I mean, we all wanna go on to talk about those as well cuz both are exciting in themselves too. Umm, and let\u2019s take a step back. There\u2019s champagne on the side.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Yup.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Are you supposed to drink it before, after or does it go in the drink?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 I\u2019m glad you brought this up.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 It\u2019s the debate of many many. It\u2019s like they\u2019re sitting at home at 3 o&#8217;clock in the morning. Listen up! Hey Doug, do we put the Champagne in or the Prosecco in? First and foremost Ben, it\u2019s not Prosecco. I\u2019m glad you said it\u2019s Champagne. It\u2019s Charlie all the way. Champagne all the way, you know. You\u2019re not supposed to drink or pour the Champagne into the finished drink. What you do. I\u2019ll show you the way you make it. I\u2019ll show you how to make it pop in a minute.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 But you also have a Champagne as a palette cleanser, not in a shot. So you drink the Martini, but once in a while you have the Champagne as a palette cleanser, revert back to the to the Martini, then you know you carry on that way, but no way that you pour the Champagne into the the Martini glass onto the finished article.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 So as long as you\u2019re using Champagne because it\u2019s nice and dry against the slight sweetness of the Martini. If you go with Prosecco, it\u2019s just sweet, sweet.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 But there\u2019s some good Proseccos out there, one, and number two, the Porn Star is very classy really. You know it was pretty nice. You know there\u2019s a history of the story, the journey behind it. You know, like many other drinks, you know when I invented it not many bars were doing Champagne by the glass. You know the cheapest option was basically Prosecco. So the Pornstar kind of changed the game for Prosecco really.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 You know 20 years ago a lot of bars, a lot of restaurants were not carrying Prosecco. They were serving Champagne and they could not afford Champagne as a sideshow, you know. So in a way Porn Star elevated the name of Prosecco, I believe. I think if you think about it really, 20 years ago when you were like 5 years old, you know.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 You know. It\u2019s scary. It\u2019s scary.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 But no one\u2019s really thinking Prosecco that way, you know.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I think we need to get on. I interviewed a girl called Becky Milton a couple of weeks ago and she wants to start a campaign about flat glasses of Prosecco being served in bars and I think she\u2019d be good to get on to the cause to make sure that Champagne is served with the Pornstar from now on.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 I mean I, I love champagne. I used to drink a bottle of Champagne every day and a shot of Bailey\u2019s in my cappuccino coffee. Yeah! First you get up in the morning. Get to work. That\u2019s when you get very creative Ben. You drink in the morning.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Well I need to change my lifestyle I think to get a bit more creative. How did you get into mixology and bartending originally?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Right. I know I\u2019m a bit gray and show my age a little bit there. I started about 35 years ago. You know it was the last thing I wanted to do is serve people. But WOW, people do that, you know? But you know I met a guy when I was a busboy in the Hard Rock (cafe). I was very fortunate. One day I was walking through Hyde Park. I was about seventeen and I saw a queue of beautiful girls queuing up to get into this restaurant and I\u2019m like, Oh what\u2019s that? So I went in there and asked for a job. He asked me when can you start? I can start tonight. So he asked me to come on the following day and I became a busboy. That\u2019s my entrance into the event, into the game.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 A queue of beautiful women brought you into the bartending and mixology world?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Of course, what can I say?<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 What an entrance. What an entrance. So you, I mean, you\u2019ve gotten ridiculously famous in the industry. You\u2019re working as a consultant now to bars, restaurants, night clubs. What\u2019s the most exciting project you\u2019d say you\u2019ve worked on?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 You know for me, I hate, I hate to kinda drop names, but I love the stuff that I was involved in. You know the Townhouse was pretty special to me. The LAB bar was incredible. You know the LAB bar was the bar that for 17 years basically paved the way to mixology. I miss LAB (London Academy of Bartending), but a few other bars like Shay and people like that, you know, kinda paved the way into what we enjoy and love today. I love the bars that I was involved in, but I\u2019ve been involved with so many, many bars, you know.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I thought I read a quote from you in kind of my research and it said that, \u201cWhatever your budget is, double it.\u201d Is that good advice for everybody?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Of course. Honestly, if you\u2019re gonna go on a date with a girl and you\u2019ve got 100 pounds, make it 200 pounds, you know? You need to do that. You need to have money to do things properly. You know?<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah. Okay. So onto your first, your newest product, the incredible Pornstar Martini kits.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Right. This is the Original Porn Star Martini Kit.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Curated by you inside so they arrive beautifully packaged. I\u2019ve got a video that I\u2019m gonna put on to our reels. I\u2019m gonna get my apprentice to help me cuz she\u2019s better with the technology than I am.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Of course.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Here, I\u2019m gonna try to get it on the camera (holds up a complete boxed kit for the viewers to see), it comes with a beautiful note from you.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Thank you. On a great paper.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 And then inside the instructions.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Iconography. Yeah, very much so.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 And then look at the the kit inside. So you\u2019ve got the vanilla Grey Goose.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Well, so the kind people at Bacardi-Martini group gave me some Grey Goose Le Vanille, which I love. The original Pornstar was mixed with a different vodka, but Grey Goose is still so kind, so Grey Goose Le Vanille. A passion fruit syrup.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 And is this to your recipe?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Totally. So this kit serves two people, you know.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 So Grey Goose, passion fruit syrup, Passo\u00e3.  That Passo\u00e3 spirit is the only one in the country by the way. It\u2019s 50ml of Passo\u00e3 and serves two people in a homemade vanilla sugar.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 You know it looks incredible. They\u2019re well packed.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Yeah. Give it a good shake before you put it back. Yeah, totally. So it\u2019s, it comes well packed you know. Yeah, it\u2019s looking pretty good.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 So where are these available for people because this is this is an incredible gift for I\u2019d say 90% of people cuz everyone loves the Porn Star Martini. So where can I get all of this?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Well, they can get a hold of the kit on my website which is www dot original porn star martini dot com, Jerry\u2019s in Soho, London, at Amazon UK and also Master of Malt.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Okay, superb. And as well as the kit, you\u2019ve got a ready to drink version as well don\u2019t you?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Yeah, I have the P*Star, so what I\u2019ve done is that I took the porn off to be more commercial. So I took the porn off and it\u2019s Pstar passion fruit liqueur. This is a cocktail that\u2019s ready to serve. So eventually, quick serve events, gifting parties and most of all rooftop bars. A lot of rooftop bars stuck with me. It\u2019s up in Knightsbridge, you know in Mayfair and it\u2019s well made. It\u2019s made by the guys in DeKuyper in Holland for me.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Okay, nice. Yeah, they make some fantastic liqueurs over there don\u2019t they?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 They do. Very much so.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I think I\u2019ve got a bottle of their cherry brandy somewhere behind my bar here.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Yeah, you know, but you can pick it up on Amazon and and things like that.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 You\u2019re serving it as a spritz as well, aren\u2019t you?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Well, I think this time around, I made it easier, you know, for bars, homes, especially as a spritz. So literally you pour certified in a wine glass. Top it up with Prosecco or Champagne or Cava or anything you know that is party.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Awesome. Well, we\u2019re doing it. We\u2019re running a bar in the summer. Here we go. We\u2019re gonna serve this as our signature serve in Essex this year out of our horse box.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Really? Essex? Partytown? The capital of the Pornstar Martini?<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Is it?<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The capital of the Porn Star Martini must be Essex.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 I\u2019m not from Essex by the way, but the capital of the Porn Star Martini must be Essex really. Think about it. Every Esser loves them.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 What are the chances of getting you down for a guest appearance?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 You got money? Oh, I can\u2019t wait.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I\u2019m sure we can get some.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Definitely. I can make an appearance definitely, but honestly I don\u2019t care where the cocktails end up. You know. I\u2019m very proud. No matter what area, which barstool or which country. Not many people create a cocktail and take it to market. Often times drinks can\u2019t do that for you without knowing, you know.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 I managed to kinda, you know, save the screen just to get this out (holds up bottle of P*Star) and also get the kit out.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 So, here\u2019s a question for you. Have you ever been served a Porn Star Martini by someone that doesn\u2019t know who you are?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Oh yes. I can\u2019t name the bar or the person. It was a bar somewhere that\u2019s kind of full of it, you know, and they brought me a Pornstar Martini. A very badly made one. I was with a friend of mine. She looked at me. I looked at her and we just started laughing. You know we drank it anyway and we just laughed, but you know it could have been a young guy trying to get into this by making that so you can\u2019t criticize too much. She looked at me and I looked at. After a while, okay and it happens, sometimes you know not every bar will have the ingredients to make it properly.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Okay. So if we flip that on its head then, where have you been or have you ever been where you\u2019ve been served from and been really impressed at it coming out to you?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 I\u2019m the most difficult person to impress you know. Honestly speaking, when it comes to drinks and certain things I\u2019m very anal about it. Not really, you know. I\u2019ve been to some great bars, but they don\u2019t make it like I\u2019ll make it, you know. It\u2019s, I haven\u2019t been to a bar whereby (and I love Porn Star Martinis by the way) when it\u2019s made well. It\u2019ll drink good. Drinks made well, it could be amazing. But, not really.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Never? Never impressed with someone who\u2019s\u2026 that\u2019s sad.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 No. I\u2019m a difficult customer mate.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I think we need the country to up it\u2019s game on Porn Star Martinis in general.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Of course, I mean it\u2019s been on <i>Coronation Street<\/i> (a British soap opera). It\u2019s been many, many shows you know and people often times forget that someone came up with an idea. Someone thought about the serve. Someone thought about the ingredients. Someone thought about everything, you know. It wasn\u2019t just someone that, no, it takes time to do things properly, you know and often times people will bypass your drink or to make it much more accessible to everyone. But, if you want a real deal, you go back to the Pornstar Marini and also the (Pstar) liqueur.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah perfect. So if you could have a Porn Star Martini with anyone alive or dead who would it be and why?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 My God man your questions are so hard at times mate. You know I love and adore Sidney Poitier, the actor. He\u2019s one of my favorite artists, crossed many boundaries and I just like him. He\u2019s very, very debonair as a man, you know, I like him. A woman I would love, love, love to dine or have a Pornstar Martini with is Marilyn Monroe. It\u2019s two icons and Martin Luther King baby, you know and my father too, he\u2019s in my life.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I knew there\u2019d be an attractive lady in there somewhere considering how we got into it. I\u2019m not surprised you kind of slid Marilyn Monroe in.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 I did. Of course, I cannot have just men. Come on mate. But on a good note, you know, if you have Sidney, Marilyn, my father and Martin Luther King, and also maybe you could have Iman there or Naomi Campbell. You know.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 So we\u2019ve got three girls, three guys. We could talk one-to-one great, you know and they\u2019re all very iconic in their heydays and I like that.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 What a party that would be.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Actually, no. I also have John Lennon and Bob Marley. Two of my biggest, biggest heroes, you know.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I mean it\u2019s just going to who could you have it with the who wouldn\u2019t be attending? I mean it\u2019s just gonna look like a huge party now.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Really? I\u2019m sorry. I can\u2019t do this by the way you\u2019re gonna get me in trouble. I guess who\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 So what\u2019s next for you then? What\u2019s on the agenda?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 They call me a passion fruit king you know, so I\u2019m working on a couple of ideas. I\u2019m working on a on a P*Star spritz canned at the moment.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Okay.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Yeah. So hopefully by late summer, maybe. It\u2019s sponsored to be canned, ready to go to festivals, hand them out. You know, yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Perfect. So I\u2019m gonna go on to make this once we\u2019re off camera (holds up Pornstar Martini Kit). If I open it up one more time, can you talk me through and I\u2019ll be going through your shots for everyone else there? What is the perfect way to make this drink?<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Really? Who are you gonna make it for? Yourself or your girlfriend, your lover or your partner. Who are you making it for? Your wife?<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I\u2019m actually making this for the apprentice in the office. It\u2019s a bank holiday tomorrow so me and her are gonna share a couple.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 You\u2019re gonna make it now or you\u2019re gonna make it tomorrow?<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I\u2019m gonna make it late this afternoon so I\u2019m gonna do it now Douglas. I\u2019ll do no more work for this afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 I know. So what you do is that I mean before you start, I put fifteen mil about fifteen ml of water in a mixing tin before you start or mixing glass.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Okay.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Yeah and pour the ingredients accordingly. So the vodka.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 It\u2019s very, very simple, you know. The vodka, the syrup, the Passo\u00e3 and the homemade vanilla sugar. And sugar can be sweet, but if you make it with two people, maybe two teaspoons would be ideal.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Okay.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 So it\u2019s not too sweet, you know. But when you put water in the syrup, it opens up the syrup okay. And if you shake it very, very hard you get a froth on top.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Perfect.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 So you gotta shake it so hard that\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I\u2019m gonna\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Go ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 I\u2019m gonna send you a photo. but I\u2019m worried about being really judged.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 No, no, no, don\u2019t be silly. Come on. I\u2019m not gonna judge you. I don\u2019t do that, but make sure that when you serve it that you have a teaspoon, so if you fish out the flesh of the passion fruit, eat that. So the Porn Star Martini, if you can check out the iconography, you fish out the fresh passion fruit at the end.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 This is how you do it so it becomes like a talking point if you\u2019re in a bar and I be like what\u2019s he doing what\u2019s he drinking you know. so if you follow that iconography, it\u2019s very, very simple. But if you\u2019re shaking make sure you use proper ice and shake well so you get the froth on top.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Yeah. Right. I\u2019m looking forward to giving that a go.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 So send us some images please mate.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 So to finish up, remind us of where we can get these and what are your social media profiles so people can give you a follow.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 Guys, please follow me to check out my page. Please find me on www dot original pornstar martini dot com and my handles for Instagram are pstarliqueurofficial or originalpsm. So hit me up. Also check out my FB pages.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Well, Douglas thanks ever so much for coming on to the show. It\u2019s been enlightening and fun and I look forward to meeting you in person once we can once we can socialize again a bit more.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 We\u2019ve got about a month and a half, 2 months to go, so let\u2019s pray and you know, make sure that everything works out well.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Nice. Stay safe and I\u2019ll catch up with you soon.<\/p>\n<p>Douglas:\u2002 And don\u2019t forget to send the pictures by the way. Don\u2019t cheat, okay.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 No I\u2019ll get it. I\u2019m gonna send you the pictures. I\u2019ll send you the pictures. I\u2019ll see you later on.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Well, thank you for joining us Douglas and I hope everyone else enjoyed that as much as I did. I think one more to take away from that is don\u2019t settle for bad Porn Star Martinis anybody. Right, so time to make the cocktail. Let me try to do as much justice as I can. I don\u2019t think I can go too far wrong because I\u2019ve got the kit available on Amazon dot co dot uk, original pornstar martini dot com, Masters of Malt and Jerry\u2019s in Soho, London.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 Let\u2019s open it up. So we\u2019ve got a Grey Goose La Vanille. The passion fruit puree to Douglas\u2019s recipe. Passo\u00e3 liqueur and his vanilla sugar. Well, let\u2019s put that away. We\u2019ve got Douglas\u2019s instructions. I do not want to get this wrong cuz I promise you I\u2019m gonna send him that photo. Let\u2019s get started.<\/p>\n<p>Ben:\u2002 50 ml of the Grey Goose vodka. Now, he specifically states we put ice in last for this. So that\u2019s what we shall do Douglas. In it goes. 25 ml of the Passo\u00e3. Oh, smells good. 25 ml of the fruit syrup, It\u2019s got a nice little label on. Let\u2019s take that off. I tell a lie, it\u2019s 50 ml of the fruit syrup. We\u2019ve got two teaspoons of the vanilla sugar. Be careful with this. Oh, smells cracking. Oh, no. I\u2019ve already put the ice cube in here. In goes the ice. Lid on it, so shake for 30 seconds. I\u2019m not gonna make you wait that long. I\u2019ll shake for 30 seconds but cut it out. And there we go, beautifully cold and shaken. Top off. Oh, it smells delicious. Alright, let\u2019s strain that into our cold Martini glass. The beautiful vibrant orange colors there. There we go. Top it off with half a passion fruit. Pop that in the top and then you\u2019ve got Douglas Ankrah\u2019s perfect Pornstar Martini. Cheers guys. Oh, that\u2019s good. A little champagne is a palette cleanser. Never mix the two. Enjoy and we\u2019ll see you next week on <i>The Mess Mixologist<\/i>.<\/p>\n<h3>References<\/h3>\n<p> <\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Provocative Allure Even though this drink started out as the Maverick Martini which was named after Maverick\u2019s Revue Bar, a gentleman\u2019s club billed as the most sophisticated strip club in Cape Town, South Africa, the suggestive association (or lack of knowledge about the connection) wasn\u2019t enough to boost sales.
