Unripe avocados will need a few days to ripe before opening. To speed up the ripening, keep it in a brown bag or in your sack of rice. Be sure to check it everyday.
When ready, cut in half, remove the pit and scoop out the avocado meat with a spoon and place in a bowl.
Add milk and sugar. Keep stirring until creamy consistency is reach with some smaller pieces.
Chill before serving.
Depending on your liking, you can eat it thick like yogurt or add more milk for a thinner consistency.
