Cooking on Camera: The Alligator Pear - Emerald Cocktail 
The avocado is a versatile performer that can take center stage or play a supporting role as a flavorful accent. The unique flavor and mouth watering creaminess marry well with ingredients from mild to wild, as well it is quite enjoyable when crafting natural skin products in your own kitchen!
On June 3rd Chef Melissa was the guest Chef at Telemetro’s Tu Mañana Show. Since avocados are in season, it was a great opportunity to showcase this delicious food.
The avocado is colloquially known as the Alligator Pear, reflecting its shape and the gator skin like appearance of its skin. Avocado is derived from the Aztec work “ahuacalt”. While avocados are now grown in most tropical and subtropical countries, the major commercial producers include the United States (Florida and California), Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Brazil and Colombia.
Ingredients:
- 1 avocado (aguacate), ripe
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 4 oz. whole milk
- 4 tablespoons vanilla ice cream
- a pinch of cinnamon (optional)
Directions:
Remove skin and seeds from avocados, chop roughly. Blend the avocados, honey, milk and ice cream in a blender for 15 seconds or until becomes smooth. Serve in tall glasses with ice and dust cinnamon on top.
Ingredientes:
- 1 aguacate maduro
- 2 cucharadas de miel de abejas
- 4 onzas de leche
- 4 cucharadas de helado de vainilla
- 1 pizca de canela
Procedimiento:
Remover la pulpa del aguacate y colocarla en la licuadora junto con la miel de abejas, leche, helado y licuar por 15 segundos. Servir en vasos altos con hielo y una pizca de canela.

Wow! This looks interesting… Can’t lie, I’ve always been scared of using avocados in a dessert or as something sweet, but this looks appealing!

Alligator Pear…like it, and I’m using it. It will confuse people, but that is not a bad thing!
Lovely blog.

Hmmm…Not sure about this one, but the sexy chef has influenced me to try it!
08.21.09 at 03:54 PM |
Oh I love avocados, not sure I am brake enough to drink it though. Have you ever used jelly palm fruit in recipes; I have some which are ripe now and don’t want to mess with making jelly?
08.27.09 at 04:06 PM |
Hmm, I’m not sure if I would like this or not. I know my husband would!

10.19.09 at 07:31 PM |

I do love fruits particularly the ever sweetened Avocado!
It gives us renewed energy because of it’s vitamin content. I wrote a custom essay about fruits that have lots of benefits in our body!

Very good recipe about avocado cocktail.
12.03.09 at 09:08 PM |
Thanks for the recipe Melissa I will try this weekend after I pick up some vanilla ice cream.

Wow! I hadn’t thought avocados could be a desert item. I have enjoyed them as a chip dip for years. Also as a condiment for various Mexican dishes popular in American tex-mex style dishes. I may have to try this recipe out soon. Might make an interesting addition to the holidays, especially Christmas. Avocados have a high degree of nutrients including Vitamin B, E and K. A sweet with this backing might even be a way to get kids to eat somewhat healthy. I look forward to experimenting with this recipe and maybe make a few of my own.

Hey Melissa,
First off I just want to say that your blog layout is fantastic! I have been marketing online for a long time and have to tell you that this blog is very unique and original. Secondly, I have been reviewing your recipes and you really bring some authenticity to the table. I’m getting hungry just looking at this blog, I don’t think I’ll return unless I eat beforehand, haha. Thanks for sharing all your ideas.

Wow, that sounds absolutely delicious. I have it all written down for tomorrow morning. Thank you! Looking forward to more.

Whoo, great website! I LOVE the orange! Mmmm, avocados! Yummy! I just might have to try that recipe!

Never thought of using avocado in a drink like this. Wonder what it would taste like if the avocado was lightly smoked? Might add an interesting twist.
Thanks for a great recipe!
