Happy World Cocktail Day Glam Fam!

Our cocktail scented wax melts, luxury candles and bubble bath are some of our best sellers, so we thought we'd share some recipes for how to make the real thing! 

Pornstar Martini

Originally named the Maverick Martini after a shady bar in Cape Town, these cocktails were renamed Pornstar Martinis in homage to their key ingredient - passionfruit. 

The sweetness of the vanilla and syrup is balanced by the sharpness of passion fruit and complemented by the shot of fizz which accompanies it.

Ingredients

2 ripe passion fruits, halved

60ml vanilla vodka

30ml passoa

1 tbsp lime juice

1 tbsp sugar syrup

Shot of champagne (or Prosecco), to serve

Method

Scoop the seeds from one of the passion fruits into the glass of a cocktail shaker, add the vodka, passoa, lime juice and sugar syrup. Add a handful of ice and shake well, strain into 2 martini glasses, top up with prosecco, then add half a passion fruit to each. Serve immediately with the shot of fizz on the side.

Pina Colada Mocktail

Non-alcoholic alternatives to popular beverages is a growing market, with a recent study by Distill Ventures showing that 61% of UK customers want better non-alcoholic choices.

If you want to impress friends who are choosing a soft drink, here's a recipe for an indulgent, non-alcoholic Pina Colada. 

Ingredients

1 large tin of pineapple chunks in juice 

200g condensed milk

200g coconut cream

Ice

Method

There are two ways to make this creamy mocktail! Either put all of the ingredients in a blender for a slushy style consistency, or put them in a cocktail shaker for a smoother drink.
