Kiwi Daiquiri
By switching the rum to tequila and adding a little Triple Sec, this drink becomes a margarita. Makes 4 servings


Ingredients:

12 very ripe kiwifruit, peeled and diced
1 1/4 cups water
Juice of 2 limes
6 ounces rum
1/2 cup superfine sugar
4 unpeeled kiwifruit slices for garnish


Instructions:
1. Put kiwifruit in a food processor with lime juice. Pulse only a few times until fruit is just puréed. Mix sugar and water and combine with purée, pulsing a few times until smooth.

2. Put kiwifruit mixture in a metal or glass pan and mix with a whisk or wooden spoon. Freeze until solid.

3. Scoop up frozen mixture and put into a food processor or blender. Add the rum and purée just until a slushy drink is formed. Pour into goblets. Make a slit halfway into the kiwifruit slices and put a slice on the rim of each glass.

Cooking Tip
When puréeing kiwi's it's important to avoid over processing, which can break the seeds and cause bitterness.
