Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 tbsp watermelon jelly (or strawberry/ raspberry) (NOTE 1)
  • ½ cup (125ml/4 fl oz) sparkling moscato (or for less sweet, sparkling wine) (NOTE 2)
  • 15 ml lychee liqueur (NOTE 3)
  • 1 tsp rose water
  • 30 ml lychee syrup (NOTE 4)
  • 30 ml soda water (carbonated/seltzer water)
  • 1 lychee (peeled and seeded)

Instructions
 

  • Prepare jelly as per the instruction on the packet and chill in the fridge until set. Once set, use a spoon to break the jelly into tiny pieces. Doing this will make some of the jelly float whilst sipping the cocktail, instead of having them all sink to the bottom of the glass.
    making jelly
  • Pour the wine into a chilled champagne glass, followed by the lychee liqueur, rosewater, lychee syrup. Give it a gentle stir with a long small spoon, then add in the jelly and top it off with soda water. Have a taste of the mixture. If it's too sweet, add in some more soda water until you adjust it to your taste. Drop a lychee into the glass for garnish.

Notes

(NOTE 1) Watermelon Jelly - I used Aeroplane Jelly in watermelon flavour, however, you could also use strawberry or raspberry flavour.
(NOTE 2) Sparkling moscato - Moscato is a sweet wine (also known as dessert wine) made from muscat grapes. It's high in sugar but relatively low in alcohol when compared to other wines. I used sparkling moscato which is still quite sweet, so if you don't like sweet cocktails you could swap with sparkling wine or champagne then top it up with a little more soda water than the recipe calls for.
(NOTE 3) Lychee liqueur - I used French brand Paraiso for my lychee liqueur.
(NOTE 4) Lychee and lychee syrup - I purchased a cheap tin of lychees in syrup for the lychee garnish and the syrup.
