The acai berry (pronounced "ah-sigh-ee") is a small grape-sized berry that growes in the Amazon Rainforest of Brazil. Natives of the region have harvested this berry as part of their diet for hundred of years. although the acai berry is legendary in Brazil, only recently has its popularity spread to America. This recent surge of interest in the acai berry has been aided by bestselling auther and anti-aging expert Dr. nicholas Perricone who has touted the berry as the "Number one super food in the world" and in appearances on TV shows such as Oprah.
It is very delicious and I prefer it as sorbet, however it comes in a drink (smoothie) too. You can add various fruits and granolas. I personally prefer it with just bananas.
Guarana is added to both. Guarana is another plant also grown in the Amazon reputed to be a stimulant and increase stamina and physical endurance.
It's sort of like having a double shot of healthiness!!
