- 8 oz (240 ml) sparkling water or club soda

- Prepare the Kiwi: Peel and chop the kiwis into small pieces to make them easier to blend and release their juice.
- Juice the Lime: Squeeze about 1 oz (30 ml) of fresh lime juice from one medium lime. Set aside additional lime wedges for muddling and garnish.
- Muddle the Lime Wedges: In a glass or cocktail shaker, muddle 4 lime wedges gently to release the oils and juice, enhancing the lime flavor in the mocktail.
- Mix the Ingredients: Add the chopped kiwi and lime juice to the glass or shaker. If desired, add 1 tsp of sugar or honey for a touch of sweetness.
- Combine and Chill: Pour in 8 oz (240 ml) of sparkling water or club soda. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients without losing the carbonation.

- Adjust the sweetness according to personal preference by adding more or less sugar/honey.
- For a stronger lime flavor, add extra lime juice or muddle additional lime wedges.
- Chilling the sparkling water before use helps keep the drink refreshing and fizzy longer.
- This mocktail is best served immediately to enjoy the sparkling texture.
