A refreshing and vibrant drink combining the tangy flavors of kiwi and lime with a fizzy twist.
Heat the water and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
Ensure the sugar is fully dissolved to create a smooth syrup.
Add the mint leaves to the syrup, remove from heat, and let it steep for 20 minutes.
Cover the saucepan to retain the mint aroma during steeping.
Peel and chop the kiwi, then puree it in a food processor until smooth.
Use ripe kiwis for a naturally sweeter puree.
Strain the syrup into a pitcher, pressing on the mint leaves to extract all the flavor, then discard the leaves.
Straining ensures a clear syrup without mint particles.
Add the kiwi puree to the pitcher and mix well.
Stir thoroughly to combine the flavors evenly.
Juice the limes and add the juice to the pitcher, adjusting to taste.
Taste as you add the lime juice to balance the tartness.
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator until cold.
Chilling enhances the flavors and makes the drink more refreshing.
Pour the mixture into glasses, top with sparkling water, and garnish with a slice of kiwi.
Serve immediately after adding sparkling water to retain the fizz.
