The Curra's Avocado Margarita contains all the staple margarita fixings of ice, tequila lime juice and salt. However added to the blend is a whole pitted avocado as well as cilantro to bring out a more savory element to the iced beverage. The avocado renders the drink to the texture of a smoothie that is creamy, cold and refreshing.
