  • About

Shakes like this one are produced just about everywhere soft fruit is grown; sometimes they’re very sweet and sometimes not. You must play with the recipe a bit to find out where your own taste lies. For fruit shake ideas.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium to large avocado, quite ripe
  • ½ cups milk or sweetened condensed milk
  • 1

Method

  1. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, scoop out the pulp, and place it in a blender with the milk, sugar, and ice cubes. Blend until smooth and frothy.
  2. Taste and add more sugar if you like. Serve immediately.
