Porn Star Margarita ⭐️🍹 Using both very terms loosely here 😂 The recipe for the OG cocktail is a blend of passion fruit puree, passion fruit liqueur, lime or lemon, vanilla simple syrup, vanilla vodka and a side of champagne. I always craved these flavors but in margarita form – Cadillac style with the Grand Marnier) and here she is!

Why You’ll Love this Porn Star Margarita
This Porn Star Margarita recipe takes everything from the viral original cocktail – the lush passion fruit, vanilla warmth and pop of citrus – and gives it a margarita glow-up ⭐️! You will be hooked!
Prep Like a Pro
Dry Shake First – When using egg whites, always do a dry shake before adding ice. Doing a dry shake with the egg whites emulsifies and traps air, which creates a stable foam. Adding the ice afterwards chills the cocktail while the foam remains.
Use Fresh Lemon – Bottled lemon just doesn’t hit the same. Make sure you add a little and taste, you can always add more but you can’t take back what you’ve put in. The brightness of the lemon is key to balancing the sweetness.
Chill Your Glasses – This frothy, citrusy Porn Star Margarita deserves a cold glass so pop it in the freezer while you make your cocktails!
Fresh Passion Fruit – If it is in season, don’t skip out of the fresh passion fruit garnish. It adds aroma, texture and extra drama on top!

🔥Chef Nadia’s Tip🔥
- Make sure you do the dry shake before you add ice to this Porn Star Margarita! Doing a dry shake with the egg whites emulsifies and traps air, which creates a stable foam. Adding the ice afterwards chills the cocktail while the foam remains.
- I’ve been talking about a specific shaker on my social media. It is expensive but if you like making drinks, this thing is life changing! It’s leak proof, has an integrated jigger, it’s insulated so you have to shake it less, has a screw cap so it doesn’t jam or explode, and it is huge so you can make more than one drink at a time! So check out this Elevated Craft Hybrid Cocktail Shaker!
Substitutions and Variations
- Substitutions
- You can substitute the egg whites for foaming bitters.
- You can replace the Grand Marnier with Cointreau or Triple Sec. You won’t have the vanilla kick but you’ll keep the orange flavors.
- Swap the passion fruit puree with a mango or pineapple puree if you would like. Just make sure you strain.
- Variations
- No Egg White Variation → Just skip it, the egg whites don’t affect the taste so skipping this step is totally okay if you’d prefer it.
- Mocktail Porn Star Margarita Variation → Use a zero proof tequila, like Ritual Non-Alcoholic Tequila. In place of the Grand Marnier sub with orange juice concentrate or orange blossom water.
