Method
Blend the Kiwi: In a blender, combine the chopped kiwis, mint leaves, sugar (or alternative sweetener), and lime juice. Blend until smooth.
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.
Taste and Adjust: Taste your frozen mixture. If you want it sweeter, you can add more sugar or sweetener, blending again to incorporate.
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.
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.
