There's a bar in Leeds selling light-up pornstar martini paddles and they sound pretty damn incredible.
Served up on special glow-in-the-dark paddleboards (not the kind you go down the river on), they come in a range of six different flavours - because passionfruit is so 2019.
If you fancy drinking your pornstar a little differently, you can choose from a range of different flavours including strawberry, peach, melon, cherry and orange.
Or alternatively, if you consider yourself a bit of a Pornstar purist then you can always still opt for the classic passionfruit tipple. There's no judgement here.
Priced at £50 for the full paddle, it's available throughout the week at Leeds' Revolution Electric Press.
Alternatively, individual drinks are included in the happy hour deal which runs between 5 and 7 pm, Monday to Friday.
Sharing the news to their Instagram page, Revolution Electric Press Leeds said:
"TEASER ALERT FOR ALL PORNSTAR LOVERS!!!
"We may or may not be launching our EXCLUSIVE PIMP YOUR PORNSTAR PADDLE TODAY ? Get your squad together and head to Rev's Electric Press to find out.
"6 flavoured pornstar martinis all served up on our very own absolut UK light-up paddle!
As well as serving up these amazing-looking pornstar paddles, Revolution also does a belting bottomless brunch.
Situated in a unique area of Leeds in the Civic Quarter, you'll get a brunch dish and 90 minutes of bottomless drinks - ranging from Aperol spritz and Ketel vodka and tonic, to prosecco, amstel, bloody marys and more.
From smashed avocado on toast to fried chicken and bacon waffles, there's so many different dishes to choose from too.
Find Reveolution Electric Press at 41 Cookridge St, Leeds LS2 3AW.

Get Baked’s viral ‘Bertha’ cake has a sister on the way – and she sounds just as cheeky
She's big, she's green and she's ready to ruin your figure.
A lot of you will have seen the viral ‘Bertha’ cake by Leeds born beloved sweet treat specialists Get Baked.
They recently opened another site in Manchester's Northern Quarter, where queues literally formed round the block of hungry punters wanting to get their hands on the infamous sugary treats.
And now it's going to happen all over again, as they've recently unveiled their newest flavour which is sure to go down a storm.
We’ll give you a hint: it’s a current food and drink trend that’s about as big as Bertha herself – it’s not matcha, it’s not hot honey (duh), and it’s not Guinness…

Yes—scratch that; HELL YES!Get Baked is set to welcome Bertha’s equally beautiful twin sister, and she’s officially a pistachio girlie.
Having started out life simply as ‘Bruce’, after taking inspiration from the iconic scene from Matilda, this thing has become a phenomenon in its own right, and who doesn’t like more flavours of a good thing?
Probably one of the biggest foodie crazes going at the minute, thanks to the popularity of pistachio cream, cookies, lattes and the similar social media sensation that is the ‘Dubai Pistachio Bar' people are rather fittingly going nuts for this particular flavour of almost absolutely anything.
With that in mind, the Leeds-born bakery and dessert shop – founded by Rich Myers over in Headingley back in 2011 – have shown no hesitation in hopping on the bandwagon and creating a new twist on their own viral menu item.
Teasing the full details in a post on their Instagram this week, they wrote: “What’s big, green, and is going to destroy your life in a couple of weeks’ time? Pistachio Bertha. Strictly limited to 5,000 slices. Coming oh so soon. GB.”
In case you were wondering just how mad those with a sweet tooth could possibly go for a slice of cake, just look at the recent queues when they finally launched in Manchester city centre:
Speaking on the grand opening here on our turf and his partner Amy’s hometown, Myers said simply: “Manchester, what a launch. Thanks for much for the warm welcome. Stay baked.”
