Ingredients
  

  • 2 ripe kiwi fruits peeled and chopped
  • 6 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 to 4 tbsp sugar or according to taste
  • 1 cup chilled lemon-lime soda
  • 1 cup ice cubes divided
  • Kiwi slices for garnish
  • Lemon slices for garnish
  • Fresh mint leaves optional

Method
 

  1. Place the chopped kiwi fruit, lemon juice, sugar and half of the ice cubes in a blender.
  2. Blend until smooth. Taste and add more sugar if required.
  3. Divide the remaining ice cubes between two tall serving glasses.
  4. Pour the blended kiwi mixture evenly into the glasses.
  5. Slowly top each glass with chilled lemon-lime soda.
  6. Stir gently to combine without losing too much fizz.
  7. Garnish with kiwi slices, lemon slices and fresh mint leaves, if desired.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

Do not add the soda to the blender because blending will remove its fizz.
Reduce the sugar if you are using a sweetened lemon-lime soda.
Sparkling water can be used instead of soda for a lighter version.
The kiwi mixture can be prepared in advance, but the soda should only be added immediately before serving.
