Passionfruit Gin Martini

This Passionfruit Gin Martini is my own little take on a tropical classic. I’ve swapped the vanilla vodka for gin (because honestly, what else am I doing with vanilla vodka?), and skipped the sparkling wine altogether to keep things simple, tangy, and sweet.

I first fell in love with this drink at the Martini Bar at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Singapore — and lucky for me (and you), it’s super easy to replicate at home!

🍸 Why You’ll Love This Passionfruit Gin Martini

  • Easy to make with just 3 main ingredients
  • No fancy syrups or sparkling wine required
  • Perfect summer cocktail or dinner party drink
  • A great way to use gin in something other than a G&T!

The original Passionfruit Gin Martini recipe calls for passionfruit pulp, vanilla vodka, lime juice and sparkling wine. I’ve swapped out the vanilla vodka for gin because honestly what am I going to do with the remaining vanilla vodka? Gin is more versatile (hello, G&Ts!) And I find the sparkling wine just isn’t very necessary.

You can use fresh passionfruit as well but I find using passionfruit pulp gets you a better ratio of passionfruit. You can add a little more fresh passionfruit into the drink if you’d like. Since the passionfruit pulp already has sugar in it, I haven’t added any more. If using fresh passionfruit though, then you’ll want to add 15ml or half an ounce of simple syrup as well.

Variations & Tips

  • Make it sweeter: Add simple syrup if using unsweetened passionfruit.
  • Want a little fizz? Add a splash of soda water or prosecco.
  • Make it a mocktail: Replace gin with a non-alcoholic spirit like Lyre’s Dry London Spirit.

This Passionfruit Gin Martini is fresh, fruity, and incredibly easy to make. Whether you’re serving it at a summer BBQ, a girls’ night in, or just because you deserve something fabulous, it’s sure to be a hit.
