We’ve seen them all, but on this National Avocado Day, our team has your back with the trendiest avocado smoothie recipe you’ll want to save and try for yourself!
First, start by selecting avocados at the right stage of ripeness; it’s crucial. Opt for ripe avocados with a dark green, almost black exterior that yields gently to pressure when lightly squeezed. Overly firm avocados will lack the desired creamy texture, while excessively soft ones can make the smoothie too mushy. The creamy consistency of the ripe avocado forms a velvety base that effortlessly blends with other ingredients, resulting in a satisfying, luxurious smoothie. Store slightly less ripe avocados at room temperature until they reach the ideal ripeness for a delightful and nourishing treat that will leave you craving more.
