A Reethi Drink
Aug, 26 2019
The local Maldivian word for beauty, Reethi, is the perfect name for this stunning tropical cocktail.
Using fresh green apple juice and lychees, with a splash of juice from limes grown right here on Coco Bodu Hithi, Reethi is wonderfully light and refreshing - the perfect cocktail to sip by the Latitude poolside under the Maldivian sun.
