About Passoã
Passoã is the word # 1 Passion fruit liqueur. Created over 35 years ago, with a full-bodied sweetness that brings a twist and burst of zest to the palate. Used within the original Pornstar Martini cocktail created by Douglas Ankrah in 2002, Passoã is the key ingredient within this iconic cocktail. Made with real passion fruit and no artificial flavors, Passoã is unmistakably tickled red with an intensely stimulating flavor. It is a key ingredient in the UK's most popular cocktail, the Pornstar Martini, a must-have in bars but also easy to make at home with friends. Passoã adds passion to any cocktail: it will give an exotic passionfruit twist to most cocktails (margarita, spritz, mojito, sangria) and can also be enjoyed in an easy refreshing mix with tonic, lemonade or orange juice.
