Method

Cocktail

1

Prepare glass

Fill a highball or Collins glass with ice to chill while you build the cocktail.

2

Build

In a cocktail shaker add 2 oz Tito's Vodka, 0.5 oz lychee liqueur (if using), 0.5 oz lychee syrup, 1 oz fresh lemon juice, and 0.5 oz simple syrup. Add one or two ice cubes to the shaker (enough to chill but still allow dilution).

3

Shake & strain

Shake vigorously for 8–10 seconds until the outside of the shaker is chilled. Discard the ice from the chilled glass, then strain the shaken mix into the glass over fresh ice (about 3/4 cup).

4

Top with lemonade

Gently pour 3 oz chilled lemonade into the glass and stir once with a bar spoon to combine — do not over-stir to preserve carbonation if using sparkling lemonade.

5

Add lychees

Drop 1–2 whole canned lychees (drained) into the drink for texture and extra lychee flavor.

Garnish & Serve

6

Garnish the rim with a lemon wheel or twist and tuck a mint sprig beside it if desired. Serve immediately with a straw or cocktail pick for the whole lychees.
