Ingredients:

• 4 ripe kiwis, peeled and chopped
• 4 cups cold water
• 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4-6 lemons)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
• Ice cubes, as needed
• Fresh mint leaves, for garnish
• Lemon slices, for garnish

Instructions:

1. In a blender, combine the chopped kiwis and 1 cup of cold water. Blend until smooth.
2. Using a fine mesh strainer, pour the kiwi mixture into a large pitcher to remove any seeds and pulp.
3. Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice and granulated sugar to the pitcher. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.
4. Pour in the remaining 3 cups of cold water and mix until fully combined. Taste, and adjust the sweetness if necessary.
5. Fill serving glasses with ice cubes and pour the kiwi lemonade over the ice.
6. Garnish each glass with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices for a vibrant, inviting presentation.

Helpful Tips and Variations:

• If fresh kiwis are unavailable, use an equal amount of kiwi puree for a similar taste.
• For a natural sweetener, replace granulated sugar with honey or agave syrup.
• Serve your Kiwi Lemonade in chilled glasses to enhance the refreshing effect.
• This drink is perfect for summer barbecues, picnics, or any family gathering.

Storage and Substitutions:

Refrigerate any leftover drink in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Stir well before serving as the ingredients may settle. Substitute lemon juice with lime juice for a different citrus twist or use a combination of both for added complexity. For a sugar-free option, consider using a natural sugar substitute like stevia.

Pairings and Complements:

This Kiwi Lemonade pairs wonderfully with light, fruity desserts such as berry tarts or lemon bars. It also complements savory dishes like grilled chicken or fresh salads, making it a versatile addition to your family meals.
