Kiwi Fruit Juice

Kiwi is delicious fruit with unique taste. The green kiwi juice has tangy taste that is great for making a refreshing kiwi drink. For deeper taste experience, I pair kiwi with mint infused sugar syrup.

Green kiwi juice can be very sour and you need to balance the sour taste with some sort of sweetness. I’m using sugar syrup in this recipe but you may use honey, maple syrup, or simply add some apple juice. The kiwi fruit gets sweeter as it ripens and the flesh soften. So you may use ripened kiwi for less sour taste. Another variety of kiwi is golden kiwi, it is naturally sweeter in taste. You can also use golden kiwi in this recipe.

For further punch, I’m adding lemon soda to the drink which makes it a frizzy drink to serve to guest as a welcome drink. But, it is optional. I won’t spoil anyone with frizzy fresh juice if it is not a party. Lol.

Can I juice kiwi?

Yes, you can juice kiwi. And if you are using a hard juicer, you can juice the whole fruit. Just chop off the eye (the top where stem was attached.) The skin of kiwi fruit is not only edible but full of nutrition. Make sure to use more firm and less ripened kiwi fruit for juicing. Also remember, kiwi has very sour taste. So to balance it, always pair kiwi with apples, carrot or any other sweeter fruit or vegetable.

Similarly, you can also blend kiwi with other fruits like banana and apple or vegetables like spinach or carrot to make a kiwi smoothie.

How to prepare and peel kiwi fruit for drink?

There are two way to prepare kiwi fruit for any recipe. One is peeling the kiwi and slicing it as needed. You can peel kiwi skin with a peeler or knife. This method is suitable for firm less ripened kiwi.

Another method is to divide kiwi into two halves and scoop the flesh with a spoon. This scooping method should be used for softer ripened kiwi.
