  • Balance of flavors was nice, but as I feared this was a bit too sweet for my taste.

  • Needs a lot more than 1/4 oz of simple with that much lemon and lime juice. I probably added close to 3/4 oz of rich demerara before it tasted like a punch. I used T. F. Noyaux - perhaps not as sweet as others.

I agree needs more sugar. I got to 1/2 oz and it was still too sour. Maybe just ease up on lemon/lime.

Agree with a 3 with averna. Black walnut bitters + averna and punt a mes just leads to a kind of muddy bitterness with the scotch I was using (highland park 12). Suspect there is a good mix here, this wasn't it. Curious about using my homemade Amer Picon.

  • Mezcal gets a little lost. Perhaps the drink doesn’t need both tequila & mezcal. I made it with two barspoons Fernet, which was plenty. — ★★★
  • I halved the Fernet but it still overpowered. Gonna keep reducing to get better balance... UPDATE: I like it best with 1 bsp Fernet Branca!
  • Whenever the Fernet-Branca exceeds 1/4 oz, it's all I can taste.
  • Flavors mesh well but fernet predominates.

Kindred Cocktails commented on 11/29/2017:

I tried this last night and rated it 3 stars (good, would make again). If you like Fernet in modest (not super subtle, but not hit-you-on-the-head amounts), you'll like this cocktail. I also subbed Amaro Noninio, but the sugar balance was off. Need to swap some Cynar for more Tequila or maybe dry vermouth.

noksagt commented on 12/01/2017:

Imbibe's image of this has a dark layer over the rest of a much lighter drink. Anyone know if PH&AC layers the fernet for service?

Also: nonino seems like it'd be a really weird sub to me in this one.

applejack commented on 3/18/2020:

I initially made this with Fernet Branca and a tequila blanco.  I thought this was bit unbalanced using those ingredients, but better when using an alternate, less menthol heavy fernet such as Fernet-Vallet (which made sense given the other Mexican ingredients) or Letherbee Fernet.  The type of tequila wasn't specified so I figured the default was a blanco; I thought the oak, vanilla & caramel notes of a quality repo or anejo rounded out the drink better.  So if you didn't like this as specified, I'd suggest maybe trying it with an alternate fernet and an aged tequila, which made for a nicely complex, bitter sipper.  I also thought a drink with powerful flavors such as this benefited from being served on a large rock or sphere instead of up.

Porn Star Martini (lightly modernized)

1 1⁄2 oz Vodka (vanilla-infused)
1 1⁄2 oz Passion fruit puree (lightly sweetened)
2 oz Sparkling white wine (in sidecar)
Instructions

Shake, strain, up, serve with a sidecar of sparkling wine.

Notes

Actually a quite good drink, especially with the acid of the sparkling wine chaser to cut through the sweetness of passion fruit syrup. The original calls for plain vodka with vanilla and passion fruit liqueurs in addition to passion fruit puree. I recommend infusing a few vanilla stalks instead.
