TOP TIPS
· For a sweeter sip add 1-2 teaspoons of the reserved lychee syrup to each glass.
· For extra zing a splash of ginger beer instead of soda water adds warmth and spice.
· Make this into a mocktails by removing the vodka and increasing the soda water slightly.
· Chill glasses in the fridge for 10 minutes before serving for an extra-refreshing finish.
