- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice (about 2-3 limes)
- 2 cups cold water
- 2 tablespoons honey or simple syrup (optional)

- Garnish with fresh mint leaves and lychee halves to add a special touch.
- Savor the tangy aroma of lime mingling with the sweet, floral notes of lychee as you take your first sip.
Helpful Tips and Variations
- Substitute honey with agave syrup or your preferred sweetener for a different taste.
- For extra chill, serve in a pre-chilled glass.
- Mix with sparkling water instead of plain water for a fizzy version perfect for parties.
Storage and Substitutions
- Refrigerate any leftover lychee lime juice in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- If fresh lime is unavailable, bottled lime juice can be used as a substitute.
- For a winter variation, use canned or frozen lychee if fresh lychee is not available.
