Ingredients
45 ml 1 1/2 fl oz vodka
15 ml 1/2 fl oz lychee liqueur
15 ml 1/2 fl oz fresh lychee juice
10 ml 1/3 fl oz dry vermouth
Lychee fruit, for garnish
Equipment
Cocktail Shaker
Hawthorne strainer
Jigger
Martini glass
Instructions
- Place your martini glass in the freezer or fill it with ice water to chill while you prepare the cocktail.
- In a cocktail shaker, combine the vodka, lychee liqueur, lychee juice, and dry vermouth.
- Add ice to the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mix is well-chilled.
- Remove the martini glass from the freezer or discard the ice water. Strain the cocktail mixture into the chilled glass.
- Add a lychee fruit as a garnish, either floating it in the glass or skewering it on a cocktail stick across the rim.
Notes
- For an added twist, consider infusing the vodka with lychee for a few days before making the cocktail to intensify the lychee flavor. Simply place peeled lychee fruit in vodka and let it sit for at least 24 hours.
