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!

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.
