What is Avocado Shake (Smoothie)?
An Avocado Smoothie is the #1 way local Vietnamese people consume this creamy, green fruit. It's avocado blended with lots of ice and sweetened condensed milk to create a luxuriously thick, ice-cream like drink to cool off on a hot day. In fact, Vietnam is where the Avocado Shake came from.
How To Make Avocado Shake Popsicles?
You're going to follow our Avocado Smoothie recipe (ready in JUST 5-mins!). Then, grab your popsicle mold of choice and pour in the smoothie. Add popsicle sticks, leave in the freezer for 3 hours and now you have creamy, healthy popsicles.
What's the Best Popsicle Mold to Use?
There's not really a best kind to use, to be honest! I didn't have a real popsicle mold, so I used mini Dixie cups which turned out great. This method is best if you're making popsicles for a large crowd since they're easy to hand out and transport.
If you plan on making popsicles often (for just yourself or your family), I'd recommend investing in one made of metal or silicone. The plastic molds eventually crack from all the freezing and thawing, so it's best to avoid those.
Expert Tips to Make Smoothie Popsicles
- Bang the popsicle mold on the table before putting it in the freezer to get rid of air bubbles
- Make the smoothie a little bit thicker than you would for just drinking, so your popsicles don't melt quickly
- Since the smoothie is so thick, most wooden popsicle sticks will stand up straight on its own
