Tips:
- Ensure your avocado is perfectly ripe for a creamy texture. It should yield slightly under gentle pressure.
- Adjust the sweetness to your liking. You can add more or less sugar or substitute it with honey or agave syrup.
- If you prefer a thicker shake, reduce the amount of water or add ice cubes before blending.
- For a vegan version, switch the milk to a plant-based alternative like almond milk or soy milk.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor, as the avocado can oxidize and change color over time.
