A creamy pineapple smoothie, made with avocado instead of banana, soaked almonds and a good amount of fresh basil — the basil here is not decoration, you taste it.

The almonds are soaked for 4 hours and then peeled. Dry, they stay gritty in the blender, and the brown skin makes the drink bitter and gives it a greyish tone. After soaking, the skin comes off with your fingers.

The pineapple goes in frozen: it chills and adds creaminess without ice watering down the flavour.
