While guacamole is arguably the most popular way to eat avocado in the U.S., in Indonesia we like to have it as Jus Alpukat (avocado juice, literally translate). Though when you see the juice, it looks more like a shake or a smoothie.
Simple Avocado Juice is easily find at every restaurant or street vendor in Indonesia. The only time you won’t get it if they are out of avocados.
This avocado juice is so easy to prepare, you don’t need complex ingredients to make it. Just four ingredients. My favorite kind of recipe.
So, here’s the easiest way to make simple avocado juice.
What you need to make 1 serving of Avocado Juice
1 small ripe and soft avocado
Sweetened condensed milk
Ice
Water
Blender
How to make it:
1. Slice avocado in half.
2. Discharge the seed, squished the meat to the blender.
3. Add 2-3 ice cubes (better if using crushed ice).
4. Blend with a little water to help the blending process.
5. Pour it to a glass (about 1 cup).
6. Add sweetened condensed milk to taste. (I used to like it sweet, but now I only added a bit of milk.) Stir.
7. Enjoy it!
Additional Notes
Some people like to add granulated sugar when they blend it but I don’t think it’s necessary. There are people who like to use chocolate sweetened condensed milk but I haven’t found one around my area. I found fat-free sweetened condensed milk instead and used it for my smoothie, err… juice. There are people who like to add coffee granules before they blend the juice mix.
You can add more water to make it to juice consistency, but then you have to add more milk to keep it sweet. Again, you can control the sweetness level of the juice to your preference.
Other way to make it, just use potato smasher or a fork and smash it to your preferred texture. Add crushed ice, a bit water, and sweetened condensed milk, then stir and enjoy.
I had some in Indonesia. They usually add chocolate syrup around the top and edges. Yummm!!!
I’m glad you like it! It’s easy to make.
