Sweet Avocado Drink

In every street of Marrakech, you’ll find small cafés that serves quick (take-out) breakfast and lunch. From sandwiches filled with amlou or kiri to omelettes to small tajines. In these cafés you have a whole list of smoothies or fresh juices make from fresh fruits. Any combination is possible! The most popular is the ‘Avocado juice’. Plane with just milk and honey, or a ‘delux’ version with extra dried fruits and nuts. This filling and nutritious juice is my favourite one. I often order these take-away in the afternoon to ease my hungry moments!
