Ingredients

• 4 ripe kiwis, peeled and roughly chopped
• 2 tablespoons elderflower cordial
• 2 cups sparkling water or club soda
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
• Ice cubes
• Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Instructions

1. In a blender, combine the chopped kiwis and lime juice. Blend until smooth and the aroma of the fresh kiwi fills the air.
2. Strain the kiwi mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a jug to remove any seeds and pulps, resulting in a smooth, vibrant green juice.
3. Add the elderflower cordial to the kiwi juice and stir well. The elderflower’s floral sweetness should marry beautifully with the kiwi’s tanginess.
4. Fill four glasses with ice cubes, then pour equal amounts of the kiwi and elderflower mixture into each glass.
5. Top up each glass with sparkling water or club soda, giving the drink a delightful effervescence. Stir gently.
6. Garnish each glass with a sprig of fresh mint. Take a moment to appreciate the drink’s beautiful presentation before serving.

Helpful Tips and Variations

• If you prefer your drinks less sweet, adjust the amount of elderflower cordial to your taste.

• Serve in chilled glasses to maximize refreshment on a hot day.

Storage and Substitutions
