This creepy martini recipe is a fun take on the Lychee Martini. The eyeballs are made of lychee fruit and blueberries. I love making festive twists on classic drinks to fit the seasons and holidays. This Halloween martini is really fun to make.
If you’re planning a Halloween party, this is a fun recipe to add to your list!

Ingredients
- Vodka – The main spirit in this martini is vodka.
- Orange Liqueur – I used Grand Marnier.
- Lychee Puree – I found mine here.
- Lychee Fruit – I used canned lychees.
- Blueberries– For eyeballs.
Directions
The best glass to serve a lychee martini in is a classic martini glass.
In a cocktail shaker, combine vodka, orange liqueur and lychee puree with ice. Shake for 15 seconds until icy cold.
Pour into a martini glass to serve.
Use blueberries inside of lychees to create eyeballs. Use a cocktail stick to hold them together and garnish your drink.
Tips for Making
- This drink is balanced, but not sweet. If you prefer a sweeter martini, add half an ounce to one ounce of simple syrup to this recipe before shaking.
- If you dislike vodka, I recommend replacing it with gin for a different take on this recipe. You could also try a flavored vodka, like vanilla.
- If you want to add more color to your cocktail, you can garnish with an additional wedge of lime.

Whilst I’ve had a lot of lychee FLAVOURED things – and have always enjoyed them – I’ve never actually had lychees on their own! I wonder if they’re just as good. This has certainly piqued my interest. It looks great, either way!
the canned lychees are very sweet- kind of in line with a maraschino cherry because they are in syrup. They are good though & it’s a really fun drink to make!
what is lychee puree?
Such a fun drink for a halloween party!
