I Googled these, but they sound good. I like Prosecco more than Champagne.

Beijing Bellini

3 parts Champagne or Dry Italian Prosecco
1 part Lychee wine or Lychee Liquor
1 Lychee nut dropped to bottom of glass

Served in a tall champagne flute glass.

**Lychee wine or liquor can be found in your local Chinatown Liquor store; the liquor gives it a stronger flavor and punch. There's now an American lychee liquor brand called "Soho" which may be easier to find.

**You can also blend the lychee nut in a processor in its own sweet juice. Peeled, canned lychee nuts are available in a lot of grocery stores.

Red Lotus

1 1/2 ounces vodka
1 1/2 ounces lychee liqueur
1 ounce cranberry juice

Pour the ingredients into a cocktail shaker with ice.
Shake well.
Strain into a chilled old-fashioned glass filled with ice.
