Method
Cocktail
- 1
Combine and chill
Add lychee vodka, yuzu cordial, fresh lime juice and optional simple syrup to a cocktail shaker. Fill shaker with ice (about 3/4 full).
- 2
Shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the outside of the shaker is cold and slightly frosted. This chills and slightly dilutes the mix for balance.
Assemble & Finish
- 3
Fill a highball or Collins glass with fresh ice (about 3/4 full).
- 4
Double-strain the shaken mixture into the prepared glass to remove small ice shards and any pulp.
- 5
Top with approximately 2 oz soda water (adjust to taste) to give a gentle effervescence. Stir once gently with a bar spoon to incorporate.
- 6
Garnish with a halved lychee skewered on a cocktail pick and a yuzu or lime wheel on the rim. Serve immediately.
