In a food processor or blender, place the avocado, cucumbers, broth, half-and-half, herb and lime juice. Blend until mixture is smooth. Season to taste.
Refrigerate, covered, until chilled. If soup gets too thick, add more milk or broth. Sprinkle each cup with green onions and tomatoes before serving, and/or garnish with mint sprigs.
