How to Make Kiwi Mint Lemonade
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water.
- Heat over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Simmer uncovered for 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup packed fresh mint leaves (optional).
- Let the mixture steep for 20 minutes.
- While the syrup steeps, peel 3 medium kiwifruits and cut them into chunks.
- Puree the kiwifruit chunks in a food processor until smooth.
- Pour the kiwifruit puree into a large pitcher.
- Strain the cooled syrup into the pitcher, gently pressing on the mint leaves to extract flavor (discard the leaves afterwards).
- Refrigerate the mixture until completely chilled.
- Juice 2 lemons and stir their juice into the chilled kiwifruit mixture.
- Taste and add the juice of the remaining lemon for extra tartness, if desired.
- Pour the lemonade into glasses filled with ice.
- Top each glass with sparkling water or club soda.
- Garnish with a slice of fresh kiwifruit and a sprig of mint (optional).
