In the Philippines, avocado milkshakes are a very common thing - not super healthy, i know - but the idea of avocado as a sweet rather than a savory is so amazing. I always wondered why that wasn't a more common "sweet" flavor in this country. It's such a delicious combination. Will have to try this recipe!

Avocado milkshakes may not be super healthy, but they sure sound super delicious!!! & you're so right, usually "savory" here, but so good sweet too! If you try this one, I hope you like it! It's so creamy, it gives you that feeling of an indulgent treat! :)
