Lychee Limade Cocktail

Lychees are an interesting fruit and definitely an acquired taste. If I’m being honest, I don’t love eating lychees on their own, but I do loved lychee flavoured drinks.

This drink has it all, sweet and sour yet mild. Perfect cocktail for girls night in. I also love how pretty you can present this drink.

I will show you the recipe by the glass, but feel free to make a big batch by quadrupling the quantities. You can use rum or vodka or leave it as is for the non-alcoholic option.

Grab a can of lychees, because this recipe comes together quickly and is a drink worth gossiping about!
