Kiwi Cocktail Recipes

It’s time for more tasty cocktail recipes by David Edessa.  This week, Kiwi is our inspiration. He also threw in more coffee classics.  If you missed any of David’s past posts, be sure to check out his Tangerine Recipes, Specialty Syrup flavored recipes, and his delicious New Year cocktail recipes that are good any time of the year!

 

Written By David Edessa:

Another great fruit that is in season that we should take advantage of is the Kiwi.

Strawberry Kiwi Marini

  • 2 oz. Strawberry Vodka
  • 1 oz. Triple Sec
  • 1 oz. lemonade
  • 2 to 3 slices of kiwis
  • 1 tsp. simple syrup

Preparation:

Muddle the skinned kiwi with sugar syrup in a cocktail shaker. Add ice, triple sec and vodka then shake well. Pour into a chilled glass.

If you wish to make this drink just a Kiwis Martini all you have to replace is the base liquor Strawberry vodka with citrus vodka….

Watermelon Kiwi Cooler

  • 1 oz. Citrus Vodka
  • 1 oz. Watermelon Liqueur
  • 2 to 3 oz. lemonade
  • 2 to 3 slices of kiwis
  • 2 to 3 mint leaves
  • 1 tsp. simple syrup

Preparation:

Muddle the skinned kiwi with sugar syrup in a cocktail shaker. Add ice, watermelon liqueur, mint and vodka then shake well. Pour into chilled glass over ice.

Mango Kiwi Martini

  • 2 oz. Mango Vodka
  • 1 oz. Triple Sec Liqueur
  • 1 oz. lemonade
  • 2 to 3 slices of kiwis
  • 2 to 3 mint leaves
  • 1 tsp. simple syrup

Preparation:

Muddle the skinned kiwi with sugar syrup in a cocktail shaker. Add ice, triple sec liqueur, mint and vodka then shake well. Pour into chilled glass over ice.

Experiment with different flavors and even different flavors of rum.

More Coffee Cocktail Classics

I always like to preheat my mugs before I build my coffee cocktail.

Aspen Coffee

  • 1/2 oz. Grand Marnier
  • 1/2 oz. Frangelico
  • 1/2 oz. Kahlua
  • Fill with Coffee and top with whip cream

Coffee Royal

  • 3/4 oz. Baileys
  • 3/4 oz. Kahlua
  • Fill with Coffee and top with whip cream.

B-52 Coffee

  • 1/2 oz. Kahlua
  • 1/2 oz. Baileys
  • 1/2 oz. Grand Marnier
  • Fill with Coffee and top with whip cream.

To add your own twist to your coffee drink try using different flavors from the Baileys brand (Original, Mint Chocolate, Crème Caramel, Coffee, Hazelnut, Biscotti) and even try different whip cream flavors from Reddi-Whip.
