Thai Lychee Soda

Submitted by UmmIbrahim

"A wonderfully refreshing and beautiful beverage that goes perfectly with an oriental meal, or just to enjoy itself on a hot summer day. I sometimes use the lychee fruit juice out of the can (1 cup) in place of the actual fruit."

Fresh tasting and refreshing! I used the syrup from a can of lychee fruit like you do sometimes because I love to just eat the fruit I didn't want to waste the pulp and they are quite expensive here. I used a Middle Eastern grenadine, bottled lime juice and perrier water for the club soda, I did not use the cold water. I will make this again with fresh lime juice insha Allah. Made for PAC Spring 2010.
