Where do you buy acai?

Thanks to the Trader Joe's frozen acai pureé packets , the bowls are really simple to recreate at home. Each bag contains four individual (100 gram) packets.

What's the difference between a smoothie and a smoothie bowl?

The texture of a smoothie bowl is thicker because there is less liquid than in a smoothie, so you can easily eat it with a spoon.

What type of blender do you use to make an acai bowl?

If you're searching for a quality blender to get that super creamy consistency without spending hundreds of dollars, this is the one I have and love ( affiliate link !). You should also run the acai packet under warm water for a bit to partially thaw and break the frozen puree into pieces (as per package directions). This makes it easier to add to the blender.

Notes

I used the frozen acai packets from Trader Joe’s (pictured above), but you should be able to find them in other grocery stores as well, near the other frozen fruit. Try not to omit it if possible! It really adds a wonderful signature flavor to these.
