Morir Soñando de Aguacate is a spin on the traditional Dominican drink made with fresh-squeezed orange juice, milk, sugar, and ice but this version includes avocado. It may sound a little strange but the avocado adds creaminess along with added vitamins and nutrients without changing the flavor profile of the drink too much. The texture is thick so it makes the drink more like a smoothie. I personally love it and it’s one of my favorite ways to enjoy avocado, aside from guacamole!
Morir soñando is typically made with orange juice and evaporated milk but in this recipe I use oat milk which makes this recipe vegan as well. Together with the avocado, this smoothie is smooth, creamy, and delicious. You won’t miss the evaporated milk at all!
Ingredients for making morir soñando de aguacate:
- Oat milk
- Fresh-squeezed orange juice
- Fresh-squeezed lemon juice
- Avocado
- Ice cubes
- Cane sugar
- Clear vanilla extract
How to make an avocado creamsicle smoothie?
To a cocktail shaker add ice cubes, orange juice, lemon juice, sugar, and vanilla extract. Shake until chilled. Pour into a blender along with oat milk and diced avocado. Blend until smooth. Serve over ice, add a garnish and enjoy!
How to make a lemon twist garnish?
Take a fresh lemon, lime, or orange. Slice a ring from the center, about 1/4 inch thick, from the thickest part of the fruit. Make a slice halfway through and carefully slice around the fruit to separate the peel from the fruit.
The pith or white part of the peel is bitter so you won’t want to keep too much of it. Slice halfway between the edge of the peel and the fruit, about halfway through the pith. Slice all the way around until you are left with the peel strip.
Trim the edges lengthwise, if necessary to make the width of the strip even. Twist the peel into a curly, spiral shape. You can twist it with your hands or use a metal straw to form the shape. The peel should naturally hold its shape.
Use the lemon curl or twist to garnish drinks and bring your presentation game to the next level!
