Avocados are the perfect fruit to amplify using savoury flavours not just to food, but also to your cocktails. Chances are that although this might seem unusual at first, avocado-based alcoholic drinks aren’t as complicated to recreate at home. Their velvety texture can make the taste of your cocktails very creamy, giving it the most ideal mouthfeel, while also enhancing the way that the drinks look. Adding avocados along with a splash of salsa liquid is also a great way of inculcating Mexican flavours in drinks like a margarita.
