Notes

  • Store tightly covered in the freezer for up to 2 months.
  • What does avocado ice cream taste like? Avocado has an incredibly neutral flavor, so avocado ice cream is very neutral. That's why we flavor it and why it takes on flavor so well!
  • Is avocado ice cream fattening? All things in moderation, but the fat in this is monounsaturated, as opposed to normal ice cream which is saturated, so it's a healthier type of fat.
  • Is avocado an ice cream flavor? Sure! If you love love love avocado and that is the flavor you want, you can certainly have avocado ice cream. Just don't forget to add the mint or chocolate and let the subtle avocado flavor shine.
