Avocado juice

Today I went to the supermarket to buy one or two things so that I don't have to starve during the weekend. But when I was there I saw these dark & ripe avocados. So I had to take them with me & I made one of the most delicious juices in the world - avocado juice.

It is a typical Moroccan beverage, but I don't think that Moroccans drink it very often. In Morocco I just had it one or two times when we went out for a juice - no in Morocco you usually don't go out for an alcoholic drink ;-). I never heard of an juice made up of avocado before until my husband made it for us. At first I was a bit sceptic, but when I first tried it I fell in love with it. It is so delicious.

And here is how you can make it:

For two big glasses you need
2 avocados - they have to be very ripe & soft (edit: 1 avocado is already sufficent)
500ml of milk
3-4 table spoons of sugar - if you don't like it very sweet just take 3 table spoons of sugar

At first cut the avocados into two peaces, spoon them out & put the pulp in a bowl. Then add the milk & the sugar & puree everything with an immersion blender. Pour the puree in glasses & put it in the fridge for about half an hour - it tastes best when it is cool. You can also decorate it with almonds & mint leaves.

That's all. It is very simple, isn't it? I hope you enjoy this beverage. Now I'm going to relax with a glass of avocado juice, which I just made.
