Avocado cocktail

Here’s a refreshing recipe for an avocado cocktail that's perfect for a light appetizer or a unique drink:

Avocado Cocktail

Ingredients:

  • 1 ripe avocado, peeled and pitted
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) fresh lime juice (about 4 limes)
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) tequila (optional)
  • 1 tbsp honey or agave syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) coconut milk (or any milk of your choice)
  • Fresh cilantro or mint leaves, for garnish
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chili powder or paprika (optional, for a kick)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Avocado Base:

    • In a blender or food processor, combine the avocado, lime juice, tequila (if using), honey or agave syrup, and coconut milk. Blend until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a bit more coconut milk or water to reach your desired consistency.
  2. Season:

    • Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper, or additional lime juice as needed.
  3. Serve:

    • Pour the avocado mixture into serving glasses or bowls. Garnish with fresh cilantro or mint leaves. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of chili powder or paprika on top for extra flavor.
  4. Chill (Optional):

    • For a colder cocktail, you can refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes before serving.
