Instructions

  • After cutting slices of kiwi and lime for your garnish, peel the rest of the kiwi fruit using a teaspoon.
  • Cut the fruit into chunks and add them to your cocktail serving glass.
  • Add in the sugar, and use the muddler to mash the fruit together with the sugar.
  • Add the mint leaves to the glass, and stir everything with a bar spoon. (Don't muddle the mint, or it'll become bitter.)
  • Add in the lime juice and the white rum.
  • Fill the glass with ice and give everything a stir.
  • Then, top it off with seltzer water.
  • Add the lime slices, kiwi slices and the fresh mint sprig as a garnish.

Notes

  • If you can't find fresh kiwi, try using kiwi puree. It already has sugar, so you can skip the extra sugar in the recipe.
