My Tips and recommendations

• Chill Your Glass: For an extra refreshing drink, chill your martini glass in the freezer for a few minutes before serving.
• Fresh Lime Juice: Always use fresh lime juice for the best flavor. Bottled lime juice can be too sour or bitter.
• Adjust Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter drink, add more lychee syrup. If you like it to be less sweet, use less syrup or add more lime juice.
