It’s October and the sun is still shining, the warm weather is lingering and the kids are even splashing in the pool.  But, that’s the norm, right?  We live in California!

One of the best perks of living in this great state is that we can drink “summer” cocktails year-round.

Delicious kiwis are ripe and ready at your local farmer’s market or grocery store, so make sure to stock up!  Not only is the taste sweet and refreshing, the presentation is impressive with the kiwi’s seed flecks suspended throughout the drink.

Let’s get started:

• 4-6 kiwis
• 2 limes
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1/3 cup tequila
• 1/3 cup triple sec
• Ice

Remove the skins from the kiwi and cut in half.  Have you seen the easiest way to peel a kiwi?  It’s life changing.  Check it out HERE

Place the cut kiwis into a blender.  Add the juice of two limes and the sugar.  Add in both liquors.

Add about 2 cups of ice and blend together to mix

Salt the rim of your favorite margarita glass and pour over more ice.  Add a kiwi slice to the rim and you are good to go!

Cheers to living in California!
