Directions

1. Break the frozen AÇAÍ PACKETS into smaller pieces so they are easier for the blender to process.
2. Add the frozen açaí, FROZEN BANANA, and FROZEN STRAWBERRIES to a high-powered blender.
3. For a brighter, tangier flavor, add a very small squeeze of LIME JUICE.
4. For additional sweetness, add a small amount of HONEY.
5. Blend on low, using the blender tamper as needed to press the frozen fruit toward the blades.
6. Gradually increase the blender speed and continue blending until the mixture is completely smooth, thick, and free of frozen chunks.
7. Avoid adding liquid when possible so the açaí base remains dense and spoonable.
8. If the blender cannot process the frozen mixture, add only a very small splash of milk. Keep in mind that additional liquid will create a thinner bowl.
9. Divide the thick açaí mixture between two serving bowls and smooth the surface with the back of a spoon.
10. Arrange sliced fresh BANANA through the center of each bowl.
11. Add fresh BLUEBERRIES, GRANOLA, COCONUT FLAKES, and CHIA SEEDS in naturally arranged sections.
12. Add a small spoonful of NUT BUTTER and any additional toppings, such as chia pudding or other fresh fruit.
13. Finish with a light drizzle of honey and serve immediately before the açaí base begins to soften.
