Ingredients
Scale
Acai Base
- 1 packet of unsweetened acai puree (3.5 ounces)
- 1/2 cup frozen blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries
- 1/4 cup frozen strawberries
- 1/2 frozen banana
- 3/4 cup coconut milk
Toppings
- 1/2 banana, sliced
- Fresh strawberries, sliced
- Cacao nibs
Instructions
- Defrost Acai Puree: Run the acai puree packet under warm water until it softens enough to squeeze the puree out easily. It does not need to be fully defrosted, just softened to extract the contents.
- Blend Ingredients: Add the acai puree, frozen blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, frozen strawberries, half of a frozen banana, and coconut milk to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add more coconut milk if a thinner consistency is desired.
- Assemble the Bowl: Pour the blended acai mixture into a bowl carefully to maintain the thick texture. Top with sliced fresh strawberries, cacao nibs, and the remaining half of the banana for added texture and flavor.
Notes
- You can use any combination of frozen berries based on your preference or availability.
- Adjust the amount of coconut milk to achieve your desired smoothie thickness.
- For extra sweetness, you can add a drizzle of natural sweetener like maple syrup, though this may not be suitable for Whole 30.
- Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
- If you want a colder, thicker bowl, freeze the blended mixture for 10-15 minutes before adding toppings.
