Ingredients

Scale
  • 100g (3.5 oz) unsweetened frozen acai puree packets (recommend Sambazon)
  • 1 ripe banana, peeled and sliced
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) unsweetened almond milk (or any dairy-free milk like oat or coconut milk)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 cup diced fresh mango
  • 1/2 cup sliced fresh strawberries
  • 1/4 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 medium kiwi, peeled and sliced
  • 1/4 cup granola (choose your favorite brand or homemade)
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
  • A few fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients by peeling and slicing the banana, mango, strawberries, and kiwi. Set aside the blueberries and granola.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen acai puree, sliced banana, almond milk, and honey or agave syrup if using. Blend until smooth but thick enough to scoop, similar to soft-serve ice cream texture. Adjust thickness by adding more milk or frozen berries as needed.
  3. Spoon the acai blend into a serving bowl, spreading it evenly but leaving space for toppings.
  4. Arrange diced mango, sliced strawberries, blueberries, and kiwi slices on top of the acai base. Sprinkle granola and chia seeds over the fruit.
  5. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and serve immediately with a spoon.

Notes

Use unsweetened frozen acai packets for best flavor and texture. Avoid adding too much liquid to keep the base thick and scoopable. Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and creaminess. Serve immediately for best texture and freshness. You can substitute mango with pineapple or peaches, and granola with seed-based granola for nut-free options.
