Passion Fruit Martini Recipe with Tiptree Passion Fruit Curd
Looking for a new twist on a classic cocktail? This Passion Fruit Martini recipe brings something extra to the table with one surprising but delicious ingredient: Tiptree Passion Fruit Curd. It’s smooth, tropical, and full of summer flavour, perfect for those summer parties, cocktail nights, BBQs or simply sipping in the sun.
While traditional Pornstar Martinis use passionfruit purée and sugar syrup, this version keeps things simple (and a little more indulgent) by using passionfruit curd instead. The result? A silky, fruity cocktail with a touch of luxury and a bright, citrusy finish from the lime juice.
Why Use Tiptree Passion Fruit Curd in Cocktails?
If you’ve only used fruit curd for spreading on toast or filling cakes, this is your sign to try it in a drink. Tiptree Passion Fruit Curd is packed with real fruit flavour and has a smooth, creamy texture that blends beautifully into cocktails, no blender or sugar syrup needed. It adds depth, body and a delicious tangy sweetness that takes this vodka-based martini to another level.

- 35ml vodka
- 15ml Passoã (passion fruit liqueur)
- 10ml Chambord (black raspberry liqueur)
