Why we love kiwis
Vibrant green kiwis add an instant pop of colour and acid wherever they are used – blend into super-green smoothies, make zesty sorbet or slice over desserts and fruit salads. We also love using them in a cocktail for an unexpected fruity tipple.
Health benefits of kiwis
Kiwi fruits are very high in vitamin C and other immune-supportive nutrients including folate and vitamins C and K. Kiwis are also packed with fibre to aid healthy digestion and contains actinidin enzyme, which helps break down protein for your body to efficiently digest.
