Passion Fruit Martini

A passion fruit martini made with vodka, sweet and tangy passion fruit purée, fresh basil and a touch of honey all shaken with a little egg white for a silky finish.

Pouring a Passion Fruit Martini

This post is dedicated to one of my favorite people in the world, my friend Dayna.  She is one of the sweetest, most thoughtful, and intelligent people I know and tomorrow she is marrying the man of her dreams.  Dayna has been one of my closest friends since we went to high school together 20 years ago and I am so incredibly happy for her.

No one deserves happiness more.  If you met her, you would agree 🙂  Tomorrow is going to be full of love and friends and family and I can’t wait to watch her walk down the aisle as an incredibly gorgeous bride.

Passion Fruit Martini

This passion fruit martini is similar to one that Dayna told me about a long time ago.  She had something like it at a restaurant and loved it.  I wrote down the ingredients she told me and then they disappeared in my notes until just recently.

Debbie and I went to work mixing up a passion fruit martini using the ingredients Dayna had mentioned and I think it turned out pretty amazing.  The passion fruit shines in this cocktail and the basil adds a freshness that we love.  The honey brings out the sweetness of the passion fruit and tones down the tang just a bit.  Its a big win!

Passion Fruit Martini on a tray and ready to serve

We got our passion fruit purée by cutting open the fruit, scooping out the insides and then straining out the seeds.   It takes a bit of work to get all those seeds out.  If you can buy passion fruit purée, I say go for it.

If not, I found the easiest way is to dump the insides of the fruit into a strainer over top of a bowl and then using a spatula, push the fruit through the strainer until you are left with the seeds.

What to serve with this Passion Fruit Martini

Since this passion fruit martini makes us think of a summer cocktail party with lots of appies,  here are a few suggestions to pair with this delicious cocktail:

Appetizers

  • Peach, Prosciutto & Brie Tart
  • Coconut Prawns with Habanero & Pineapple Sauce
  • Caramelized Onion, Pear, Roasted Garlic, Aged Cheddar & Prosciutto Tarts
  • Bruschetta with Peppers, Tomato, Basil, and Feta
  • Whiskey Sliders with Bacon, Caramelized Onion, and Homemade Buns

I gotta tell ya, I would pay good money to be at that party.  YUM!
