Kiwi Daiquiri

Hope your week is off to a good start! It was just another manic Monday for me. I had a good day, it was just go-go-go. And when I finally sat down to relax tonight, I decided that an alcoholic beverage was a fabulous idea. Usually wine is my choice of drink, but tonight I had something else in mind that revolved around this super fruit:

Kiwi is packed with a lot of goodness, including fiber, Vitamin C and folic acid. I saw a recipe for a kiwi daiquiri in Women’s Health magazine somewhat recently and ripped the page out to make it sometime in the future. Tonight seemed as good as any to try it! Call me a sissy, but the drink tasted a bit too strong to me, so I added some flavored sparkling water to dilute the rum a bit.

Side note: As I was typing this blog post, I dropped my glass and spilled half of my kiwi daiquiri on my couch. Whomp. Guess I better just call it a night!
