In any case, this crowd-pleasing combination of vanilla and passion fruit, accompanied by a shot of sparkling wine, has spread far from its origins at London’s Townhouse bar in the early 2000s. Now adopted by bars the world over, this provocatively named cocktail has become a modern classic in its own right.
