Kiwi Cooler
The Kiwi Cooler is a refreshing drink made with freshly squeezed orange juice, kiwis, lemon and blended with ice.
Although it is still winter, spring is near and I am ready to sit on the back deck with a cold drink and absorb some sunshine. This Kiwi Cooler is the perfect drink to quench thirst and revitalize.
This Kiwi Cooler recipe comes from this months recipe from a great group of food bloggers in Recipe Swap Club. I was tasked with picking a recipe from Simply Food with Nayna. Nayna has been blogging since 2008 and there are a TON of recipes to pick from! You will find tastes from all over the world from Greek to Indian and French to Caribbean and beyond.

After looking at about 100 recipes and arguing with myself about what I want to make because everything sounded so good, I picked the Kiwi Cooler to recreate. I am just really ready for warmer weather and this is such a simple recipe. Kiwi is usually a hard flavor to pull out in recipes… it usually gets lost with other flavors overpowering it but you can really taste the kiwi in this!

Very good, it was a bit tangy and definitely not the colour of it in the picture but still good.
