Lychee is having something of a comeback — on last year’s Drink of the Year Top 50, it was a trend we noted, and this year the trend continues thanks to drinks like Electric Blue from Elisa Rodrigues in Adelaide.

“I’ve long wanted to create a drink featuring lychee, and I also had a vision of crafting a vibrant blue cocktail on tap,” says the Maybe Mae bartender. “By combining these ideas, I brought Electric Blue to life—a fruity, refreshing, and perfectly balanced drink with a striking blue hue!”
