KIWIFRUIT MOJITO

Makes two

INGREDIENTS

• 1 lime, cut into six wedges
• 1 kiwifruit
• Small handful of fresh mint leaves
• 1-2 teaspoons of caster sugar
• 2 shots of white rum (such as Bacardi)
• Soda water
• Ice

METHOD

• Peel kiwifruit and dice, saving a slice or two for garnishing. Combine kiwifruit, lime wedges, caster sugar (amount of sugar-based on how sweet you want your drink to be) and mint leaves (reserving a few for garnishing) in a vessel you can muddle in. Use a muddler or other utensil to mash the ingredients together - you can use the end of a rolling pin, a pestle or even the back of a spoon.
• Combine the rum with the fruit mix. 
• Fill two tall glasses with ice and divide the fruit and rum mixture over the ice. Top with soda water and stir. Garnish with leftover ice and kiwifruit.
• Enjoy!
