Coconut Lychee Coladas
This coconut lychee cocktail is incredibly easy to make! Just drain canned lychees and place them in a blender with full-fat coconut milk, ice cubes, coconut water, and Bacardi rum! If you’re a fan of coconut and love creamy, smoothie-like cocktails, these coladas are for you!
Ingredients
- 1 (20 oz) can whole, peeled lychees in heavy syrup drained and 1 tablespoon heavy syrup reserved
- 8 ounces (120 mL) full-fat coconut milk
- 4 ounces (60 mL) pure coconut water
- 2½ ounces Bacardi rum
- 5-6 large ice cubes plus more for serving
- lime wedges for serving
Instructions
- Combine the drained and peeled lychees, 1 tablespoon of the reserved heavy syrup, coconut milk, coconut water, rum, and ice cubes in a blender. Puree until very smooth.
- Pour over crushed ice or additional ice cubes, and garnish with lime wedges. Serve immediately.
Tips for Success:
- This drink can actually be made a few hours in advance and kept in a container in the fridge. Shake well before serving (however, it will not have that frozen texture).
