Taste
Velvety and mild, with juicy pear and a light raisin sweetness.
About this smoothie
Sultanas are dried white grapes and taste sweeter and more delicate than dark raisins; a few of them are enough to sweeten a whole glass. Ripe pear provides juice and fibre, and half an avocado gives the drink a creamy texture and mostly unsaturated fats. Rice milk is naturally sweet and light. The result is a mild, soft smoothie that suits breakfast and works well in autumn and winter.
Bartender tips
Soaked sultanas blend much more smoothly.
A pinch of cinnamon suits the pear and raisin flavour very well.
Variations
Oat version
Use oat milk instead of rice milk for a slightly fuller taste.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use raisins?
Yes, but dark raisins taste stronger and colour the smoothie a little.
