Want to make your summer drinks visually appealing? Try this delightful dual smoothie, featuring a creamy avocado layer and a vibrant berry layer. Its refreshing tartness is truly captivating. This smoothie is not only a treat for the eyes but also a wonderfully refreshing beverage.
Ingredients- 1 ripe avocado, frozen
- 1 cup frozen berries (like blueberries, raspberries)
- Approx. 1/2 cup water (for consistency adjustment)
- 1-2 Tbsp honey or syrup (to taste)
- 1/2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Preparation: Ensure your avocado and berries are frozen. This is key for a thick, cold smoothie. For the avocado, remove the pit and peel, then cut into chunks before freezing. Wash berries, pat dry, and freeze.
Step 2
Avocado Layer: Add half or one (if small) of the frozen avocado to your blender.
Step 3
Pour in the 1/2 Tbsp of fresh lemon juice. Add about 1/4 cup of water to help the blender process the ingredients smoothly. It’s best to start with less water and add more as needed to achieve the desired thickness.
Step 4
Tip: To create distinct layers in your glass, the bottom smoothie needs to be thicker than the top one. This prevents them from mixing. Aim for a consistency slightly thicker than jam.
Step 5
Blend until smooth and creamy. Make sure the avocado is completely pureed with no lumps.
Step 6
The avocado smoothie should be thick but pourable, holding its shape slightly. Transfer this to a separate container and set aside.
Step 7
Berry Layer: In a clean blender, add 1 cup of your frozen berries.
Step 8
Add 1-2 Tbsp of honey or syrup for sweetness, adjusting to your preference. Pour in about 1/4 cup of water to help it blend.
Step 9
Blend until smooth. This berry layer can be slightly thinner than the avocado layer. Taste and add more honey if needed for extra sweetness.
Step 10
Assembly: Take a clear glass. First, carefully pour the thicker avocado smoothie to fill the glass about halfway. Then, gently pour the berry smoothie on top. This creates a beautiful layered effect. Your stunning dual avocado berry smoothie is now complete! Serve immediately and enjoy.
