Tips and Substitutions

• For a Lower-Calorie Option: Use a sugar substitute in place of simple syrup and opt for low-calorie vodka.
• Dietary Needs: Ensure your liqueur is gluten-free if necessary, and consider using agave syrup for a vegan-friendly sweetener.
• Fresh Lychee: If you can find fresh lychee, use it instead of frozen for a sweeter, more intense flavor. Just peel and pit before blending!
