• 1 cup lychee juice from can or store-bought
• 2 cups club soda
• 1 cup crushed ice
• 2 limes cut into wedges
• Optional: 4-6 lychees on bamboo skewers for garnish

Instructions

• Add mint leaves and simple syrup to the shaker. Muddle gently to release oils.

Notes

Store leftover lychee juice in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Fresh lychees make the best drink, but canned ones work well too.

For a sweeter drink, add an extra tablespoon of simple syrup.

Make sure to muddle mint leaves gently to avoid bitter flavors.

Replace club soda with sprite or ginger ale for extra sweetness.
