Mild, sweet and very creamy, with a buttery avocado body and ripe banana flavour.
Banana and avocado are both valued in smoothies for their texture: blended, they turn thick and creamy without any milk or yoghurt. The banana provides natural sweetness, the avocado mostly unsaturated fat and a mild, buttery taste.
The result is a pale green smoothie that is filling and simple. A few drops of lime juice keep the colour fresh and add a little brightness. Because there are only two fruits, their ripeness decides everything: choose a speckled banana and a soft avocado.
Yes, it contains only fruit and water.
Only slightly; mostly it makes the texture creamy.
It is best fresh; avocado darkens after a few hours.
