Happy New Year’s Eve…lol Well today’s Thirsty Thursday post is special, on Saturday I went to Eatery in midtown for brunch to celebrate my friend Kathleen’s birthday. So we ordered mimosas, bellinis (peach juice and champagne) and my best friend Erica ordered the Lychee Fizz. We were all fascinated by the little bubbles lol this one woman kept starting at the drink and finally asked what it was and ordered the same drink. Ok enough with the story, but I think it is the best drink for your New Year’s Eve celebration. It is very tasty and when the lychee is dropped in the flute non stop bubbles. It is interesting to look at and very tasty. Here is how you make the Lychee Fizz
Ingredients
- one bottle of pink champagne or other pink sparkling wine, make sure it is chilled
- one can of lychee in heavy syrup, make it is chilled too!
Preparation:
- open the can of lychees. Drain the syrup, keep one cup of the syrup to blend with the lychees. Reserve some lychees for decorations for the champagne flutes
- put the other half of lychees into a blender with the syrup
- Blend until the liquid is smooth.
- Put the smooth lychee nectar into a pitcher
- Pour in the pink champagne or pink sparkling wine…slowly, so it doesn’t bubble up, stir.
- drop one lychee per champagne flute, and pour the champagne and lychee nectar into the flute.
- Make sure to serve the bellini chilled.
