Step 3) Now make cuts along the inner-flesh of the kiwi with a knife and scoop the fruit into a big sauce pan. (Repeat with the rest of the kiwi and add into the sauce pan)

Step 4) To the kiwi-sauce pan, add the sugar and water and bring it to a boil.

Step 5) Once it starts boiling, let it boil for 3 minutes and reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10 minutes.

Step 6) After 10 minutes, strain the cooked kiwi into a strainer and mash the cooked kiwi fruit in the strainer like a paste using the back of a flat spoon.

Step 7) Add the mashed kiwi paste and the strained syrup into the same sauce pan and bring to a boil. ( Stir couple of times )

Step 8) Once it starts boiling, reduce to medium and cook for 10 minutes. ( remember to stir every 3 minutes..)

Step 9) Turn off the heat... let the syrup cool to room temperature. Pour into a glass bottle and refrigerate.
