Notes

  • Select ripe but firm avocados that are free from blemishes or overly soft spots. They should yield slightly to gentle pressure but still hold their shape.
  • For a quick and refreshing avocado smoothie ice cream without the need for freezing, simply add a few ice cubes to the blend.
  • You can replace avocado with other fruits like mango, strawberries, bananas, kiwi, or durian, which will also provide you with the deliciously refreshing flavors of these fruity ice cream variations.
  • If you don't want to make the coconut ice cream from scratch, feel free to use store-bought ice cream.
  • Adjust the sweetness level to your liking. The amount of condensed milk or sugar can be modified based on your preference.
