People often forget to use kiwis in their cocktails. Ripe kiwis make for a uniquely delicious drink. Paired with fresh mint, you have created perfection.

 

Yield 1 cocktail 

 

1 kiwi, peeled and diced

1 kiwi, sliced for garnish

1 Tbsp mint leaves + 1 small sprig of mint for garnish

1 tsp agave syrup

2 oz. vodka

Splash sparkling water 

 

Muddle together the kiwi, mint, and agave in a shaker. Add the vodka and shake. Strain the mixture from the shaker into an ice-filled glass. Add a tablespoon or so of the pulp to the glass. 

 

Top with sparkling water and garnish with a slice of kiwi and a sprig of mint for garnish. 

 

Cheers, and enjoy!
