Phoebe in Retrograde
- Add all ingredients into a blender. Add ice until just above the meniscus of the ingredients.
- Blend until smooth. Serve in a wine glass (preferably stem less)
- Garnish with a lime wheel and a centered cherry.
Optional Avocado Pit Orgeat Sub-recipe
- Make sure avocado pits are clean and dry. Scrub off any excess avocado and leave to dry-out overnight or under heat.
- Add avocado pits into a blender and blend until the shreds are fine and consistently sized.
- Over medium-high heat, toast the avocado shreds, constantly moving the pits around in the pan until they turn bright orange.
- In a bowl or saucepan, stir together the toasted pits, sugar and water and stir. Use only half the water for a richer syrup. Allow to infuse overnight.
- The next day, return mixture to blender and blitz to combine. Strain and store in squeeze bottle.
