This is an avocado milkshake and it is delicious. I don't know if it is actually Vietnamese since it seems like many stores serve it but this particularly good one is at a Vietnamese restaurant. The "bubbles" are actually tapioca balls. They don't have a taste in and of themselves but they absorb the flavor of the avocado and when you suck them in and chew on them, you're rewarded with just a terrific dining experience. Yes, they make this from real avocado. From what I could see, they just scooped avocado into a blender and mixed it with crushed ice and added the "bubbles." (Did they add a bit of sugar?) This can be a meal in and of itself. Tasty and filling and healthy too. Oh, the cravings I've had for this wonderful treat. Of course, if you don't like avocado, they also have other options like mango and pineapple.
