    For those of you who don’t know, I actually grew up eating avocado as a dessert.  I think I was in high school when I learned that avocados can be eaten savory and when I tried it, I was pleasantly surprised.  In fact, I went home and made some for my parents.  Please don’t be intimidated eating avocado as a dessert, it is simply amazing and it never hurts to try a new food (unless you’re allergic, lol).  Let me know how you like it by commenting on the bottom! Enjoy!
     
     

    Tips and Tricks for Making This Avocado Milkshake Recipe: 

    • You can also check if your boba is cooked by biting into one and if it’s all smooth and the middle isn’t hard at all, you got a nicely cooked boba.
    • Are you lactose intolerant? Scratch the milk and use honey or brown sugar instead to sweeten your avocado shake. You won’t miss the milk. It would still be creamy as the avocado is creamy on its own.
    • Choose your avocados well. Using overripe ones won’t make a delicious avocado milkshake.

    How to Make this Avocado Milkshake Recipe:

    Gather all the ingredients: Avocado, condensed milk, evaporated milk, water, ice, and boba. One of the most important ingredients for this delicious and easy Avocado MIlkshake is the boba. You can buy this in Asian groceries or it can be sold in any food shops near you.

    Frequently Asked Questions for Avocado Milkshake Recipe:

    Q: Can I make this avocado milkshake the night before?

    A: Yes! It would save you a lot of time. You can put it in an airtight container and chill.

    Q: I love chia seeds in my smoothies. Can I add it to this recipe?

    A: It would be a delicious and nutritious addition to this milkshake. For sure, it would make a great post or pre-workout drink.

    Q: I made an avocado milkshake but it was too thick to sip with a straw. What can I do?
