We’d grab it from a stand for breakfast or buy it off a guy selling it on the hot beach as a nice cold snack – it was so delicious and as it turns out, nutritious. Acai berries are a great source of antioxidants, fiber and heart-healthy fats.

Blended together and topped with fruit, nuts & coconut and you have yourself heaven in a bite! Here’s how you can make it at home:

1/2 cup apple juice

1/2 cup frozen blueberries
1/2 cup frozen pineapple

For The Toppings:
1/4 cup sliced strawberries
1/4 cup blueberries
1 banana, sliced
1/8 cup shredded coconut
