Lychee French 75 Cocktail

• 6 tbsp gin reduce if you prefer a lighter cocktail
• 6 lychees from a tin
• 2 tbsp lychee syrup from the tin
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp rose water
• Chilled Ultra Brut to top up the glasses
• 2 thin slices of lychee to decorate

Muddle the lychees, lychee syrup, lemon juice and rosewater in the cocktails shaker using the end of a clean rolling pin.

Add the gin and a handful of ice cubes and shake for 30 seconds.

Strain into two chilled Champagne flutes (or coupe glasses) and top up with the Ultra Brut – be careful as the wine has a tendency to froth over the glass.

Decorate with a small slice of lychee and serve immediately.
