Ok, I was reading up on daiquiries, of which the yummy strawberry flavour’s my
favourite.
And with a pitted avocado in hand (left hand to be precise),
I went about searching for an avocado
daiquiri recipe. Oh boy was I delighted to have found one!
It is fairly simple, rather straight forward perhaps,
in its process right till its presentation.
Avocadoes = Gotta love ’em for being such versatile little ugly looking dynamites!
What you need is :
. 1/4 medium avocado
. 3/4 oz fresh lime juice
. 1 cup of crushed ice
. 1 1/2 oz light rum ( sees the smile spreading on my face 🙂 )
. 1 lime wedge ( if you’re going to drown it, don’t bother with the lime wedge)
. a blender
Tried & tested methods
– Crush ice in blender (or if blender’s not available, pound ice to your heart’s content).
– Add rum, lime juice, and 1/4 medium avocado in blender.
– Blend until thoroughly mixed, smooth and in its glorious cream-like texture.
– Pour into glass and garnish with lime wedge.
hmm.. i’m not sure whether an avocado daiquiri will taste good or not. did you have one?
I am planning to have one 😀
I love avocado…but not sure about it as a beverage. Let us know how it goes 😉
That is if I can get some light rum :p I’m cheap 😮
The lady who use to take care of us after school when I was little use to make me vanilla ice cream mixed with mashed avocados. Back then it was one of my favorite snacks, but when I tried to make it again last year, it was possibly the grossest thing I ate in ages. X6 I don’t know if I have a point to all this, but when I was reading your blog that was the first thing I thought of. LOL! I think I’ll stick to sandwiches, crisp breads and salads. 🙂
lol maybe Esther can come up with a magic concoction for mashed avocados and ice cream… or avocado flavoured ice cream! 🙂
In Brazil & Vietnam, avocados used for milk-shakes and mashed and added to ice cream.
Hmm… Pen, was your Sitter a Brazilian or South American?
Or Vietnamese.
