Description:

A Cocktail Avocado is a delightful little gift of nature that occurs without warning as a result of genetic factors and sudden changes in climate. This small, seedless avocado shows up most often in the greenskin variety, Fuerte. Although difficult to peel, Cocktail Avocado are cute and tasty when sliced into rounds as a garnish or canape-topper. Try appetizers of round tortilla chips with diced jicama, orange and red onion salad topped with Cocktail Avocado slices. Or bite-sized corn bread cups filled with turkey chili and topped with…you guessed it! Once a Cocktail Avocado is fully ripe, you can avoid the whole peeling ordeal by slicing off one end and squeezing the little fruit like a tube of toothpaste (from the bottom, please!). The lovely, ripe flesh will plop right out, ready to be enjoyed!
