Now it’s summer time, and I feel colorful to see the streets with beautiful, fresh and colorful fruits. My kids don’t have certain fruits, when it comes to kiwi my son never has it. Also as of summer even we feel to have juices all the time and this resulted in making Strawberry Kiwi Mojito for our Tea time with some fish fries. Let us move on to the recipe…
