I loved this! Sweet, refreshing - high in calories, but otherwise healthy. It was lovely. I made this for my friend who just had her wisdom teeth pulled. She said it was a pleasant change from juice all the time. Thanks for this one.

This recipe is too sweet for avocados. I was expecting a savory smoothie. I did not like it.

This tasted really good. I'm not much of a cook (just recently smoked my blender). :) I've been testing out the new one and was glad to stumble across this recipe. It seemed like it would be too heavey/thick for me, so I substituted using skim milk and half&half cream. Used regular sugar and halved all ingredients since I used a small avocado. It was still a little too thick for my taste and I wanted it cold so I added 4 large ice cubes. Came out green cold and frothy. Excellent recipe!
