My bother loves Kiwi and we both like a nice drink, so when I found them in a local supermarket while in Sri Lanka and some left-over Bacardi, we decided to put the two together!
Ingredients
4 Kiwis2 teaspoons of Sugar
100ml / 4oz white rum
Handful of mint leaves
Sparkling water - Club Soda/ Seltzer
(Makes 2)
Directions
- Puree the Kiwis in a blender and set aside
- Muddle the mint leaves and sugar together
- Add the Kiwi and Rum
- Pour the Kiwi-Rum-Mint mix into two glasses and top-up the glass with soda/ seltzer
- Sit back and relax with drink in hand :-)
- Strain the Kiwi if you don't like the seeds. I find a metal strainer is easier to push the pulp through and keep the seeds out
- Prepare the puree earlier and refrigerate to make the drinks faster
- If you like your drinks a little sweeter, blend the sugar with the Kiwi
- If you like your drinks very sweet, add simple syrup to taste (prepare simple syrup easily: microwave a cup of water for 1 minute, add a half cup sugar, stir to dissolve sugar, microwave another 30 seconds)
