Litchi / Lychee /Laichi / Litchu... have you heard of this fruit ??? Isn't it sound like Chinese?? You're right, this is a cute little berry like fruit native to China, recently gained humongous popularity everywhere. Being its peek season in June / July, this is overflowing in my local farmers market, with chinese people sneaking, smelling and bagging. First I was reluctant to buy but after tasting... which I would compare to that of Ice-apple / Nungu or even little bit like Tender coconut juice, this fruit have become a regular visitor to my home. Shared here is just the recipe for simple Litchi Juice all natural.
Litchi Juice / Lychee Juice / Litzi Juice / Litchi Puree
| Ingredients | |
|---|---|
| 20 nos | Lychee |
| 2 cup | Water / soda / mango juice / mineral water |
Instructions
Wash the fruits, using a sharp knife, go around the inner seed, peel the skin which would easily slide off, remove the dark black seed. Then you have is all the fresh litchi flesh or meat. It is edible as such, combine this with water and blend, filter the juice and serve.
Notes
Absolutely no sugar needed, very sweet naturally. Make it optional.
Mixing with little Vodka / Saki / Tequila Lemon / Ginger Ale would result in Margarita / Martini / Cocktail. Add in your own flavour like ginger / mint / lime.
Can be refrigerated for few hours, too much will result in stinky smell something like rubbing alcholol. Fresh is always best.
Yield: 2 cups approx.
This is available in all Chinese markets, some farmers markets and most supermarket chains. In India, some Nilgris and Reliance chains carry this item.
