Avocado Daiquiri

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.

  5. 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. 🙂

  6. lol maybe Esther can come up with a magic concoction for mashed avocados and ice cream… or avocado flavoured ice cream! 🙂
