Dragon Fruit & Kiwi Summer Sipper: A Refreshing Homemade Beverage

Today’s Unique Homemade Beverage Creation

Hello, fellow foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a completely new homemade beverage recipe that I created while feeling inspired by the beautiful colors and flavors of summer. This refreshing drink is perfect for hot days when you want something unique and exciting to sip on. Let’s dive into the details of this one-of-a-kind recipe!

Ingredients:

• dragon fruit (150g)
• kiwi (100g)
• sugar (50g)
• water (200ml)
• mint leaves (for garnish)

Kitchen Tools:

• blender
• strainer
• saucepan

To begin, peel and dice the dragon fruit and kiwi into small chunks. In a saucepan, combine the diced fruit, sugar, and water. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes until the fruit is soft and the liquid is slightly thickened.

Once the fruit mixture has cooled slightly, pour it into a blender and blend until smooth. Place a fine-mesh strainer over a clean container and strain the blended mixture to remove any seeds or solid bits, leaving you with a smooth liquid.

Transfer the strained liquid into a pitcher and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours until well chilled. When ready to serve, pour the dragon fruit and kiwi beverage into glasses filled with ice and garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and flavor.

Unique Tip:

For an extra burst of freshness, add a squeeze of lime juice to each glass before pouring in the chilled dragon fruit and kiwi beverage. The acidity of the lime complements the sweetness of the drink perfectly!
