Simple avocado ice cream with coconut milk. The months of summer, and not just June, July, and August, I think for everyone, are part of a period of sea, vacations, sun, cold dishes, and especially ice creams! Colorful fruits begin to appear and the desire to prepare fresh drinks like smoothies and granitas and obviously also ice creams. Premise that the avocado fruit reaches full ripeness in the months of November and December, that is the best time for consumption, but in a world oriented towards globalization, we find these fruits on the market all year round. I must add that in Sicily, the avocado ripening period goes from October to June, my dad also had a giant tree in his garden, I still remember it. Preparing avocado ice cream for someone like me who loves it was a gamble, I must add well-placed, given and felt the goodness. If you like, I can add other ice cream recipes that you can read on my Blog or HERE.
