Ingredients
  

  • 1 piece passion fruit
  • 1 ½ ounces vanilla vodka
  • 1 ounce passion fruit liqueur
  • ½ ounce lime juice
  • ½ ounce simple syrup
  • Extra passion fruit half and/or edible flowers for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Split the fruit in half and scoop the flesh and seeds into an empty cocktail shaker.
  • Add the vanilla vodka, passion fruit liqueur, lime juice, and simple syrup to the shaker.
  • Add ice and shake until well chilled.
  • Strain into a martini glass and garnish if desired.

Notes

The passion fruit seeds are edible and only a few usually slip through the cocktail strainer. If you prefer a seedless martini, you can pour the cocktail through a fine mesh strainer when straining into the martini glass.
Can't find fresh passion fruit? Try one of these: 
  • 1 tablespoon of passion fruit puree
  • 1 teaspoon of concentrate for a stronger flavor
  • 2 tablespoons of nectar (and reduce the syrup for sweetness) 
Want to prep ahead? Mix fresh passion fruit, vanilla vodka, liqueur, lime juice, and syrup in a large pitcher. When you're ready, shake it up individually with ice and your desired amount of the cocktail for a fresh, chilled martini every time.
Make your own simple syrup: Heat equal parts water and sugar in a small saucepan until the sugar dissolves. Allow it to cool, pour into an airtight container, and keep in the fridge for up to 2-3 weeks.
