The taste of Açai often depends on what you mix it with. If you blend in other sweet berries, chocolate, or honey, you will find a sweeter taste when you make an acai bowl. But if you choose to go the pineapple or orange ingredient route, you'll get a fusion of sweet and citrus. Açai has often been described as slightly tart with an earthy underlying taste. It's a very versatile fruit that pairs well with many different ingredients.
Fresh Açaí berries will not be found in the produce section of grocery stores since the berries themselves have a short shelf life. They are instead imported to the U.S. and sold as a frozen fruit puree to keep the product safe and fresh through transportation. But don't worry! Frozen acai packets taste absolutely delicious. We also have other acai products that aren't frozen, like our energy drinks and juices.
You can buy acai packets online directly from SAMBAZON, or at many grocery stores near you including Costco, Whole Foods Market, Safeway, Publix, Kroger, and Albertsons. You'll find them in the frozen aisle. It's easy to find where to buy acai at the closest grocery store near you!
Açaí has many benefits. It adds a refreshingly exotic twist to smoothies that comes with a nutritional boost from the antioxidants, omegas and fibers. It’s also extremely customizable to your own taste buds and dietary preferences. Plus, it adds beautiful purple color to your meal!
Many nutritionists claim this berry as a superfruit, because of itsantioxidant and nutrient levels. Açai berries are wild harvested and have substantial health benefits such as being one of the few commercially sold fruits with virtually no naturally occurring sugar, antioxidants similar to red wine, and healthy omega fatty acids similar to olive oil.
Açaí is sourced from the Amazonian rainforests -- with the process of harvesting, processing, and exporting, it is no surprise that Açaí is not the cheapest fruit on the market. SAMBAZON ensures that every penny is spent on sourcing the highest quality product possible, with our own supply chain coming directly from the farmers. When comparing to other superfoods, our products are reasonable priced for the best acai brand quality they deliver.
