Cocktail Description
The Lychee Lagoon's captivating azure hue and exotic profile transport you to pristine tropical waters with just one sip.
This refreshing Collins-style cocktail masterfully balances the delicate, floral sweetness of Lychee liqueur with the citrus complexity of Blue Curaçao and tart pink grapefruit juice. The resulting flavor is simultaneously bright and soothing—with pronounced tropical fruit notes up front that give way to a clean, subtly bitter finish. Perfect for summer gatherings or as a striking signature drink at celebrations, the Lychee Lagoon also makes an ideal companion for a relaxed weekend brunch. Thankfully, it's surprisingly simple to prepare, requiring just a quick shake with ice and strain into a Collins glass. The cocktail pairs beautifully with light seafood dishes like ceviche or grilled fish tacos, and it's especially complementary to Thai or Vietnamese cuisine where its floral notes enhance rather than compete with aromatic herbs and spices.
