Kiwi Mojitos

It would probably help to start with the fact that I am underage, so this will be a virgin cocktail.

Why bother with virgin cocktails? Because I'm sick of drinking soda while everyone is drinking wine and fancy mixed drinks. It's not fair. I want to feel fancy too, so I was delighted when I stumbled upon this recipe the other day. I didn't have any parties coming up to try it out on, so I made them for a grueling study session. They were, of course, a refreshing hit.

I made them again tonight for me and my sister. I just checked the original recipe and apparently both times I made these I made them pretty differently. My way turned out pretty well. :)

Virgin Kiwi Mojitos
(for 1 serving)
Half of a ripe kiwi
Half a lime
4-6 mint leaves
Diet lemon-lime soda
Ice

Find a nice tall glass.
Add the mint and kiwi, muddle (mash) them together. You can use a muddler, if you have one but I used a tablespoon spoon and it worked perfectly. Really mash them, you want the mint to release it's oils and break the fruit up well.
Squeeze the lime it and then fill the glass the rest of the way with soda. Stir.
Add ice and a straw. Enjoy.

(If you want to have a little more fun, add 2 oz of light rum.)
