Tips

•For the best flavor, choose Hass or other buttery avocados that are very ripe but not overripe.
•Chilling the milk and glasses helps keep the smoothie thick without needing extra ice, which can dilute the flavor.
•Some Vietnamese home-style versions are richer and sweeter; if you prefer that style, increase the condensed milk by 20-30 g.
•This drink is best consumed immediately, as avocado oxidizes and the ice will melt quickly.

Steps

1
Cut the avocados, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a blender. For the smoothest drink, use fully ripe avocados that yield gently when pressed and have no stringy brown spots.

2
Add the sweetened condensed milk, cold whole milk, ice cubes, and a pinch of salt. Blend on high for 30-45 seconds, stopping once or twice to scrape down the sides if needed, until the mixture is completely smooth, thick, and frosty. If it seems too thick to move in the blender, add 1-2 tablespoons more milk.

Taste and adjust the texture if needed: add a little more ice for a thicker, colder smoothie or a splash more milk for a looser drink. Blend briefly again just to combine.
4
Pour immediately into 2 chilled glasses and serve at once while the smoothie is thick, creamy, and ice-cold.
