When is World Passion Fruit Martini Day? This day will take place on May 28 of each calendar year.
What is World Passion Fruit Martini Day? It’s well known that cocktails and the Brits walk hand in hand, and the Passion Fruit Martini has been one of the UK’s favourite cocktails during the last four years. It became more than a cocktail: it’s a British icon. On average, there have been more than 64 million Passion Fruit Martinis served during the last three years, representing more than 20% of the cocktails served in the UK. So we thought this marvelous creation deserved its very own national day, will you join us by raising a PFM?
Why is this day being celebrated or observed? Passion Fruit Martini Day joins Pina Colada Day, Mojito Day and Beer Day as a celebration of amazing beverages!
