• 3 pieces Lychee fruit (fresh or canned)
• 2 ounces Tequila

If using a salted rim, run a lime wedge around the rim of your margarita glass. Dip the rim into a plate of coarse salt and set the glass aside to dry.

In a cocktail shaker, add the lychee syrup, fresh lychee fruit, tequila, orange liqueur, and lime juice.

Step 3

Fill the shaker with ice cubes, then securely close the lid and shake vigorously for 20–30 seconds until well-chilled.

Step 4

Strain the mixture into the prepared margarita glass filled with ice (optional) using a fine-mesh strainer to remove any lychee pulp.

Step 5

Garnish with a lime wedge on the glass rim and a whole lychee fruit if desired.

Step 6

Serve immediately and enjoy your tropical Lychee Margarita!
