We love a sweet drink in our house, but sometimes I want to mix it up and do something a little more “fresh.” Enter this fruity kiwi cucumber spritzer. It’s tart, it’s crisp, it’s herbaceous. It’s a green juice drink that tastes like a spring tonic in all the best ways.

Plus, this kiwi cucumber spritzer gives you an extra boost of Vitamin C, Vitamin K, and potassium (an electrolyte) to help you feel hydrated. Let me show you how easy it is to make it.

How to Make Kiwi Cucumber Spritzers

This is going to start off controversial, but you don’t need to peel your kiwi. I promise we’re going to filter out any larger skin pieces! Add the kiwi pieces, cucumber pieces and pineapple pieces to a high-powered blender like a Vitamix.

Start blending, using the plunger if needed to get things moving around. Add a little water if you need to. Continue blending on high for 30 seconds until the mixture is smooth.

Pour the fruit mixture into a bowl topped with sieve. Use a ladle spoon to push the liquids through for a minute or so.

In a cocktail shaker, add a cup of ice, a quarter cup of the fruit puree, and a half cup of soda (I used Fever Tree Sparkling Cucumber). Shake carefully a couple of times, popping the lid every shake to release pressure. Gentle shaking doesn’t reduce the fizz too much.

To serve, pour about 6 ounces into a glass, topping it off with a couple more splashes of cucumber soda. Squeeze a lime wedge into the cup and garnish with some fresh mint. Enjoy like you’re on vacation!

Optional Variations

If you want a fruitier, sweeter drink, substitute cucumber soda for Sprite or ginger ale. You could also use a pineapple soda, but if you’re using a sugar-free one like Spindrift, you may want to add some simple syrup.
