Can We Talk Benefits For A Moment
This chocolate avocado milkshake is one of those milkshakes that can actually be a bit healthier than your traditional milk and ice cream milkshake.
According to Healthline, people who eat avocados tend to be healthier. Below are a few bullets of benefits of eating avocados.
- Eating avocados can lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels
- Avocados are nutritious.
- They are a great source of soluble fiber which is good for the gut and may be beneficial for weight loss.

If you’re interested in a dairy-free milkshake substitute the milk and use coconut cream.
Is An Avocado A Veggie Or A Fruit?
Now that I have sparked your interest in this incredible avocado fruit milkshake I hope you do give it a try.
Did I just say fruit? Yes, I did. An avocado is a fruit but many times is treated like a vegetable.
Avocado’s are mostly seen in combination with vegetable dishes. Take for instance, slicing an avocado and putting in in a salad, chopping or smashing it up for a creamy guacamole dip.
The avocado is becoming more and more popular and popping up in recipes like smoothies, ice creams, semifreddo’s and milkshakes or shakes. By the way, you can find some of my avocado recipes below. Just look for “Related Posts”.
Honestly, The Truth About This Chocolate Avocado Milkshake
Seriously? I have never and don’t ever plan on posting a recipe on my blog that is not worthy.
Any recipe I post not only has to taste good to me but also my main critique, my husband, he has to like it too.
And yes, he is my guinea pig! So when he reluctantly tastes a new recipe like this chocolate avocado milkshake and then asks for more, I know it’s passed the test and is ready for you to try too.
Creamy Chocolate Avocado Milkshake Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 large ripe but firm avocado (skin and seed removed)
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream or coconut cream
- 1/4 cup whole milk or coconut milk
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 Tablespoons ORGANIC CACAO POWDER
- 1 cup ice cubes
- dairy or non-dairy whipped cream and 100% Natural Chocolate Sprinkles optional
- mint for garnish optional (spearmint or chocolate mint).
Tip: If you’re wanting to use coconut cream/milk buy a can of coconut cream. Place the can unopened in the refrigerator for 8 hours. Then remove the lid and pour the coconut milk in a separate bowl and the white formed product is the coconut cream. There you have it, two products in one.
Directions:
In a blender or Vita Mix add avocado, heavy whipping cream, milk, sugar, pure vanilla extract and blend until mixture is smooth.
Turn blender off and add cacao powder and ice cubes. Again, blend until mixture is creamy and smooth.
Pour mixture into your favorite parfait glass and eat it with a spoon or put in a not-so-fancy but practical flute jar or Ball Contoured Jar with sipping straw.
To finish your chocolate avocado milkshake top it off with your favorite dairy or non-dairy whipped toppings, sprinkled with chocolate sprinkles and garnish with a fresh picked mint leaf. All optional of course but why not!
