Tequila Avocado Soup

Disclaimer: You must be over 21 to read and cook and eat this recipe.


Tequila is a very inspirational ingredient in cooking. I saw a posting about an avocado soup and figured, why not just add tequila?

Tequila-Avocado Soup

3-4 avocados, sliced and pitted
1 cup tequila
1 cup chicken or vegetable stock
1 lime, juiced
bunch of green onions, chopped (save some to top the soup)
cilantro, chopped, about a handful
1 cup greek yogurt, plain
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp cumin
1 tsp pepper

Add half the ingredients into a food processor or blender. Blend together for a few seconds. Add the next half the ingredients. It will smell like tequila! You may need to add more Greek yogurt for a thicker soup, or more avocado.

The great thing about this soup - and any soup - is that you don't really need to be proportional. I added a LOT of tequila because it was Sunday Funday.

Chill the soup. Serve in fun wine glasses, top with a few green onion slices, and sip away! It might be fun to add a tortilla chip to the glass right before you serve.

*Note: you are not cooking out the tequila so this soup can be dangerous. Do not serve to minors!
