Notes
- Our lychee martini recipe allows a good deal of flexibility and freedom. Although we went with lychee syrup, you can easily swap it for lychee liqueur if you feel like it. Just keep in mind that when it comes to lychee liqueur, too little might be too much. With just an extra drop or two, you might make a mess of your cocktail.
- Although some brands offer lychee-flavored vodka, these might be hard to come by and their taste might be questionable. For our lychee martini recipe, we strongly recommend avoiding those and sticking to lychee syrup or lychee liqueur.
- We also took the liberty of opting for vermouth in this recipe. Adding a splash or two of dry vermouth will bring your taste buds some happiness. Another option would be going with Grand Marnier, which usually goes well with vodka martinis.
