What is Açaí Berry ?

Acai berry is a world-famous fruit that is hand-picked from a tall, native palm tree from deep within the Amazon Rainforest. The tree grows very slowly, and it takes 3 to 4 years for its first harvest which bears small (1-2cm diameter), round, black-purple fruits. Acai contains valuable anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins and other polyphenols, as well as omega unsaturated fatty acids.

BE Açaí Energy Drink

Our acai energy drink pouch contains 7 daily servings. As our acai berry pulp is freeze-dried into powder form to stay close to its original quality, we strongly recommend using a blender to mix it for best taste, flavor and texture.

——————————

Daily Energy Shot: Re-energize yourself without caffeine, any time of the day !

Mix 2 tablespoons (aprox. 15g) of acai energy powder with 50 to 60ml of water (preferably chilled for best taste) and blend it for 15 to 20 seconds.

For added convenience, we suggest blending multiple, daily energy shots at once. After pouring your shot, keep the remaining portions refrigerated and consume within 3 days. Remember to shake the bottle a bit before you pour another shot (due to fiber sedimentation).

• No artificial flavors, colors or preservatives

• Please store the pouch in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.

• After opening the pouch, please keep it in the refrigerator for up to 14 days.

• Since acai contains omega fats and we don’t add anti-caking agents, it’s normal to see some powder clumping.
