Kiwi Martinis

Kiwi Martinis
(from Marmalade restaurant in San Juan, Puerto Rico)

Serves 1

- 1 whole kiwi, peeled
- 1 shot white rum (1 shot is 1.5 oz, or 3 T)

Peel kiwi by cutting along the equator and scooping the flesh out of each half. Place kiwi and rum in blender. Blend just until kiwi is "juiced." Do not blend so much that you start cutting the seeds. If you do, you will have a very bitter drink.

Pour contents into a shaker, shake with ice, then strain into a martini glass.

N.B. I have tried to add more alcohol to this--it just won't work, so save yourself the trouble.
