    Hello there.  Welcome to the final I'm Pinning Around Pinterest Link Party for the year!

    Thank you for reading, linking, pinning and hanging around with me this year. Consider this our Pinning Around Christmas drinks.

    Here.  Have a cocktail.

    Lychee martinti - perfect Australian Christmas cocktail

    lychee martini

    Ingredients:

    • 60ml vodka
    • 30ml lychee liqueur
    • 30ml sugar syrup
    • fresh lychees
    • ice

    Method:

    Place the vodka, lychee liqueur, sugar syrup and ice into a cocktail shaker.  Shake for thirty seconds.  Strain into a chilled martini glass and garnish with fresh lychees.  Serve and smile without trying.  Makes 1 martini.

    Did you know Australia has the longest lychee season in the world?
    I'll drink to that!

    The guidelines for I'm Pinning Around Pinterest Link Party are as follows:

    • The party will start every Wednesday morning and close at midnight on Friday. All welcome.
    • Bloggers: if you’d like to join in: share one post that you think is perfect for Pinterest, then browse the other posts, find at least two that interest you, visit the site and pin directly from the original post.
    • Please help spread the word about the link too – the more people who join in, the more chances there are to pin. If you're sharing, please add the #pinningaround hashtag.
    • Each week I choose a few of my favourites to showcase the following week.
    • Readers: I hope that this will be a fun way to find some new blogs to enjoy. I've already discovered lots of gorgeous new blogs with clever ideas and photography that I adore!

    I'm Pinning Around will return 7 January.  See you then. x

      Had never even heard of a lychee until very recently - very funny, slimy things but surprisingly yummy! Added vodka is an added bonus x
