This iced lychee drink is one of my favorite ways to beat the heat on a sunny afternoon. It is incredibly simple to put together since it relies on canned lychees, which provide both the fruit and a sweet syrup base that makes the drink perfectly balanced without needing extra sugar.

I love serving this with plenty of ice and a few extra fruit pieces for a pretty presentation. If you find the flavor too strong, just add a little bit more water or sparkling soda to lighten it up to your liking.

Ingredients

  • 1 can of lychees in syrup, 20 ounces
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 2 cups cold water
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • Fresh lime slices for garnish

Instructions

  1. 1

    Open the can of lychees and pour the entire contents into a blender.

  2. 2

    Add the fresh lime juice and the cold water to the blender.

  3. 3

    Pulse the mixture until the lychees are broken down and the liquid is smooth.

  4. 4

    Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve if you prefer a thinner drink, or leave it as is for extra texture.

  5. 5

    Fill two tall glasses with ice cubes.

  6. 6

    Pour the lychee mixture over the ice and stir gently.

  7. 7

    Garnish each glass with a slice of fresh lime before serving.

💡 Tips

You can use sparkling water instead of plain water if you want a fizzy kick. Store any leftovers in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to two days, but be sure to give it a good stir before serving again.
