Getting “Dressed” with an Avocado and mint Smoothie

Saw some interesting smoothies, so got the Minted Avocado smoothie.

The other interesting one I wanted to get too was the Raspberry cheesecake.

There are nine smoothies to choose from and they mostly contain vanilla yoghurt and simple syrup.

On the poster, the nine smoothies were:
Mango tango (Mango juice, Apple juice, apple, mango and syrup),
Minted avocado (Avocado, mint leaves, milk, vanilla yoghurt and simple syrup),
Peanut butter and jelly (banana, strawberry, peanut butter, vanilla yoghurt and simple syrup),
Gingered pear (pear, ginger, milk, vanilla yoghurt and simple syrup),
Pretty peaches (peach, mango, milk, vanilla yoghurt and peach syrup),
Banana and berry (Banana, mixed berry, apple juice, vanilla yoghurt and simple syrup),
Raspberry cheesecake (raspberry, cream cheese, milk, vanilla yoghurt and simple syrup),
Fruits of the forest (blueberry, strawberry, milk, vanilla yoghurt and simple syrup),
The classic (banana, strawberry, apple juice, vanilla yoghurt and simple syrup)


I don’t usually like mint, because it is fake mint syrup or artificial flavouring, but here it is fresh mint that tastes Ok, same as the minted pea soup at the Limehouse.
The smoothie had a cooling lime mint colour, and it was thick with fine icy particles in it.

Although it was quite a heavy smoothie, it was very healthy in the sense that it was at the right sweetness level, it was not syrupy sweet, and you could taste each of the elements, ie the avocado, the vanilla yoghurt and the sweetness lingering.
The mint couldn’t be tasted at all, which was fine because I didn’t like mint anyway, and overall, you could also taste the slight savouryness of the avocado.

I was really surprised by it, and went back for the Raspberry cream cheese.

Getting “Dressed” with a Raspberry cheesecake Smoothie

GettingDressedwith a Raspberyy cheese Cake Smoothie.

Last time I tried the avocado smoothie, now the Raspberry cheesecake smoothie.

Again, the sweetness of their smoothies are worth commending, they are just right, not too sweet and you can still taste the tartness of the yoghurt.

The Raspberry cheese cake smoothie however didnt surprise me as much as the Avocado, the taste reminded me of the Raspberry Petit Filous by Yoplait.
The cream cheese was however surprisingly prominent in the drink, it was creamy, and slightly savoury, so its a bit like the Petit Filous with a slight savoury taste.
The cream cheese reminded me of Philadelphia spread!
