Want to make your own acai bowl at home? It’s easy!
Simply start with Original Acai Smoothie Packets available in our freezer section. Blend two of these packets with a frozen fruit of your choice (like blueberries, peaches, strawberries, etc.), then blend with fresh banana and about 4 ounces of liquid (such as almond milk, coconut milk or juice).
Place a layer of your favorite granola in the bottom of a bowl, then pour your blended mixture in the bowl and sprinkle with more granola. Top with your choice of fresh fruit—blueberries, kiwi and pineapple are some of our favs!
Add an extra healthy kick by tossing on some sliced almonds, chia or flax seeds, or even goji berries. For a little extra sweetness, drizzle some honey or agave nectar on top.
Now that you have the basics, get creative, have fun and enjoy the smooth sweetness of your homemade acai bowl!
