Frozen Kiwi Mojito Recipe

Method

1. Blend the Kiwi: In a blender, combine the chopped kiwis, mint leaves, sugar (or alternative sweetener), and lime juice. Blend until smooth.
2. Add Ice and Rum: Add the ice cubes and white rum to the blender. Blend until you reach a slushy consistency. If the mixture is too thick, add a little club soda to help it blend smoothly.
3. Taste and Adjust: Taste your frozen mixture. If you want it sweeter, you can add more sugar or sweetener, blending again to incorporate.
4. Serve: Pour the slushy kiwi mojito into glasses. Top with a splash of club soda for fizz and garnish with mint leaves and kiwi slices.
5. Enjoy: Sip and enjoy this refreshing drink!

Variations

• Non-Alcoholic Version: Omit the rum and replace it with extra club soda or sparkling water for a delicious mocktail.
• Fruit Variations: Experiment with other fruits like strawberries, raspberries, or mangoes. Just blend them in with the kiwi for a unique flavor.
• Herbal Twist: Add a splash of basil or cilantro for an interesting twist on the classic mint flavor.

Tips & Substitutions

• Sweeteners: If you’re watching your sugar intake, you can use a sugar substitute like stevia or monk fruit.
• Dietary Needs: This recipe is gluten-free and vegan. Just ensure that any substitutes are compliant with your dietary restrictions.
• Ice: If you’re short on ice, you can freeze some kiwi slices in advance to use instead. They’ll add flavor and chill your drink at the same time.
