1. Open the canned lychee and separate the fruit from the syrup. Reserve 4 pieces of lychee for garnish and measure out about 4 tablespoons of the syrup.

3. Add the sparkling water to the mixture and gently stir to combine.
4. Fill two tall glasses with ice cubes and evenly distribute the lychee fruit (2 pieces per glass).
5. Pour the lychee soda mixture over the ice in each glass.
6. Lightly slap the fresh mint leaves between your hands to release their aroma, then add two mint leaves to each glass as a garnish.
7. Optionally, skewer an additional lychee fruit on a cocktail pick and place it on the rim of each glass for a finishing touch.
8. Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Thai Lychee Soda!
