Introduction

Refreshing and slightly magical, this Kiwi Spritzer—also known as the Witches’ Brew—is a vibrant, fruity drink perfect for any occasion. It combines fresh kiwi and sparkling water for a light, fizzy treat that’s easy to make and delightfully delicious.

Ingredients

4 refrigerated kiwi fruit
2-4 tablespoons ultrafine sugar
1 bottle of seltzer water (8.5 oz)

Instructions

Step 1: Remove the hairy skin from each kiwi fruit.
Step 2: Puree the peeled kiwis in a blender or food processor until smooth, with no chunks remaining, about 1 cup of kiwi puree.
Step 3: Add the ultrafine sugar one tablespoon at a time, mixing thoroughly and tasting after each addition until the mixture reaches your desired sweetness. The amount of sugar needed will depend on how sweet your kiwis are.
Step 4: Fill glasses about three-quarters full with the kiwi puree.
Step 5: Top off each glass with seltzer water for a fizzy finish.
Step 6: Serve immediately, and don’t forget to have fun by belting out your best witchy cackle!

Tips & Variations

If you prefer a less sweet drink, reduce the sugar or use a sugar substitute like honey or agave syrup.
For an extra burst of flavor, add a splash of fresh lime juice or a few mint leaves before serving.
Use chilled seltzer water to keep the spritzer refreshingly cold without diluting the flavor.

Storage

Store any leftover kiwi puree separately in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Keep the seltzer water unopened in the fridge. When ready to serve, combine the puree and seltzer just before drinking to maintain the fizz and fresh taste. The assembled spritzer is best enjoyed immediately and doesn’t store well once mixed.

How to Serve

Two clear glasses with thin vertical ridges and gold rims hold a light green, slightly frothy kiwi drink. Each glass has a green mint leaf floating on top and is placed on a wooden board. Next to the glasses lies a sliced half kiwi with its bright green inside and black seeds visible. Fresh mint sprigs with dark stems are scattered on the wooden board and a light gray cloth is draped nearby. A clear glass bottle with a green and white label stands behind the drinks on a white marbled surface. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use frozen kiwi instead of fresh?

Yes, frozen kiwi can be used but thaw it completely and drain excess liquid before pureeing. Fresh kiwi generally offers the best flavor and texture.

What if I don’t have ultrafine sugar?

You can substitute regular granulated sugar, but ultrafine sugar dissolves more easily and creates a smoother drink.

Notes

Adjust sugar quantity based on the ripeness and sweetness of the kiwi to keep the drink balanced.
Use ultrafine sugar to ensure it dissolves easily in the kiwi puree for a smooth texture.
Chill the kiwi and seltzer water beforehand for a colder, more refreshing spritzer.
Garnish with a fresh kiwi slice or a sprig of mint for an extra touch of elegance.
This beverage is best consumed immediately after preparation to maintain its fizzy texture.
