Lychee Mint Frappe

The aforementioned herb garden is going splendidly. I'm watching my mint plant grow with the loving eyes of a mother. Albeit a cannibalistic one. Maybe it's more like the witch fattening up Hansel and Gretel. 



My favourite thing to do with mint is to whizz it with some ice and canned lychees for a fresh summer drink. 

Here's the ridiculously simple recipe:
Makes 1 large drink.
1. Place 6 lychees with 125ml of the syrup from the can in a blender.
2. Add 15 large mint leaves. 
3. Add 1 tablespoon of lime juice (optional).
4. Add 10 ice cubes.
5. Blend until smooth and pour in chilled glasses.
6. You could add vodka for a fun night out too.
