Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In your blender, pour in 1 cup of creamy coconut milk and add 3 tablespoons of lychee syrup. Blend on medium speed for about 30 seconds until the mixture is smooth.
  2. Squeeze in the juice of one lime, which should yield around 2 tablespoons. Blend on low for an additional 15 seconds to incorporate the lime juice.
  3. Add a generous amount of crushed ice to the blender, filling it about halfway. Blend on high for approximately 30 seconds until it achieves a creamy, slushy consistency.
  4. Pour the icy mixture into chilled serving glasses. Garnish each glass with fresh whole lychees and a lime wedge.
  5. Serve immediately for the freshest taste or refrigerate the base for up to 24 hours before serving.
