Title: Avocado Shake using Avocados + Raw Coconut Milk + Raw Honey
Post by: goodsamaritan on July 09, 2010, 12:14:48 pm: This breakfast, the whole household had raw avocado + raw coconut milk + raw honey shake. We just pop them in the blender. Then put whole ice cubes in our glass. Healthy “ice cream”. Kids like this latest invention. My sister in law invented it.

Now they found a new way to enjoy the avocado shake – by freezing them into ice cubes. Not just ordinary cubes, animal shapes. Their aunt bought them animal shaped ice trays. Cool fun.

This is a fat (avocado) + fat (coconut milk) + some carbs (honey) drink. Be full immediately.

Post by: Hans89 on July 12, 2010, 12:38:11 am: No added water or coconut water (I mean the liquid that is naturally inside the nut)? Is it from mature coconuts? I couldn't do this with coconuts I find here. They are so dry... Maybe I could use the info when I go to Taiwan though, would be so helpful in providing the good fats.

Any chance of some elegant pictures of the finished beverage in a glass and ready to drink?

Isn't that called coconut cream?

I think the temperature also helps to get it just with your hands like that.

Have you ever made coconut oil through fermentation of the cream?

When we make coconut cream around here the coconuts are quite dry. Would you suggest making the cream by mixing the milk from the coconut back in with the pulp? If coconuts are the same as other fruits we get from points south they are picked immature and somehow forced into maturity with gasses etc and nuked to keep from gong bad.
