Hello and welcome to another episode of our Connecting Communities Podcast.
My name is Abena Serwaa, the publishing editor of AKADi Magazine and you were just listening to Lily Naadu Mensah, older sister to the late Douglas Ankrah – the cocktail entrepreneur, author and businessman who created one of the UK’s top 10 cocktails – famously called the Pornstar Martini.
This cocktail is a passion-fruit-flavoured drink made with vanilla-flavoured vodka, Passoã (a passionfruit flavoured liqueur made with natural passionfruit), passion fruit juice, and lime juice.
It is traditionally accompanied by a chilled shot glass of prosecco.
Lauded as a pioneer in the drinks industry, Douglas established one of the popular cocktail spots in London the Townhouse and co-founded the Soho-based London Academy of Bartenders to train bartenders.
Douglas tragically passed away in 2021 at the age of 51.
Lily, who is a personal brand coach and author of ‘Work Your Quirks’, tells us more about her late brother, his career and how his family and friends plan to honour his legacy.
The music in this episode is made exclusively for AKADi Magazine by Kyekyeku and the Super Opong Stars and is called 'Life No Dey Easy'.
