Tasting Notes
The Pornstar Spritz is light, fruity, and just sweet enough. The passion fruit liqueur is the star, giving off tropical and tart flavors. Prosecco brings bubbles and a crisp finish, while the splash of soda water keeps it from getting too heavy. The vanilla syrup adds a smooth, mellow touch that rounds everything out. It’s fresh, slightly tangy, and a little sweet all at once. The balance makes it easy to enjoy without being over the top. You get a bright, fizzy drink with a soft layer of vanilla underneath and a clean, refreshing finish.
Equipment and Glassware
You don’t need much to put this drink together. A jigger helps measure everything properly. A bar spoon is useful for stirring, though you can also just build the drink straight in the glass. Use a wine glass or large stemmed glass so there’s room for the bubbles and ice. Make sure it’s tall enough to handle the mix of prosecco, soda water, and liqueur. A cocktail pick or dried fruit garnish is optional but looks nice. Keep everything chilled if you want the drink to stay crisp from first sip to last.

Pro Tips

- If you’re serving a few at once, prep the glasses with ice and syrup ahead of time.
- Add the prosecco and soda just before handing them out to keep the fizz fresh.
- You can also batch the base (liqueur + vanilla syrup) and keep it cold in the fridge.

When to Serve
This is a solid drink for brunch, day parties, or casual get-togethers. It feels light and playful, so it works well when the mood is easygoing and social. Serve it before dinner as an apéritif or during warm-weather events when people want something fruity but not too sweet. It’s also great for celebrations like birthdays or bachelorette parties—it looks festive and doesn’t need a lot of fuss. Because it’s not too strong, it’s easy to serve more than one without things getting too heavy. It’s a good “first round” drink.
Which Liquor Brands to Choose
- For passion fruit liqueur, Passoã is the most popular option it’s fruity, bright, and widely used in this type of drink.
- If you can’t find it, look for any liqueur that lists passion fruit as the main flavor and isn’t overly syrupy.
- For prosecco, go with a dry or extra dry bottle La Marca and Mionetto are good picks that aren’t too pricey.
- As for vanilla syrup, Torani and Monin both make solid versions that mix easily.
- Soda water should be plain and unsweetened Topo Chico and Fever-Tree are both crisp and reliable options.
