Florida Lycheetini

Makes One Cocktail

  • 4 ounces chilled Florida Lychee session mead
  • 2 ounces citrus or floral gin or vodka
  • 1/2 ounce dry vermouth (optional)
  • 2 dashes orange bitters
  • Canned or fresh lychee for garnish

PREPARATION: Pour cold mead into a chilled martini glass. Separately, combine gin or vodka with vermouth into a shaker with ice and shake. Strain the mixture into the martini glass with the mead. Add bitters and garnish with lychee.

TIP: Don’t shake mead with spirits, as it’s carbonated!
