Ich liebe es, nach Rezepten zu stöbern, neue Geschmacksphantasien zu testen und auf Märkten meine Nase in exotische Gewürze zu tauchen… Aber Kochen - das mach´ ich viel zu selten! Dabei macht es doch so eine Freude! Ich habe diese wundervolle Seite entdeckt: whipped. Da juckt´s mich richtig in den Fingern! Nur wem könnte ich diese Sünde von Kokostorte backen? Wann steigt das nächste Sommerpicknick für einen Reis-Kichererbsensalat mit Limone und Feta? Am besten dieses Jahr einfach keine Gans oder Pute an Heiligabend in den Ofen schieben, sondern Lychee-Martinis mit vietnamesischen Frühlingsrollen servieren. Ein Fest!  Kategorien: Allgemein, Inspirationen | No Tags Trackback URL: http://www.milchmaedchen-design.de/wp-trackback.php?p=236 [...] […] Es ist schon komisch.

I came to get the link and send it to my dad (I wasn't kidding). I read the recipe again. One cup of vodka, flavored with lychee syrup, shaken with ice and strained into a martini glass. One cup of vodka? Whoa boy, that's a party. No wonder you ended up with broken glass. I'm passing it on to my dad as is. He's likely to take it literally. I'm going to have fun next weekend.

We made them for my sister's wedding shower last year; three of us tippled the punch and turned into spring rolling dervishes, I think it might be something in the rice paper. Lychee martinis - genius and so easy. I'm passing this one on to my dad, he'll have them ready by the time I get to my parents place by Lake Michigan next weekend. I so love spring rolls like this.
