The Story
Created by London bartender Douglas Ankrah in the late 1990s — first as the "Maverick Martini," then renamed for the flamboyant serve. Ankrah built it around vanilla vodka, passion fruit, and the theatrical shot of Champagne poured alongside. It became one of the best-selling cocktails in Britain and a fixture on menus worldwide.
