    Acai Superfood Smoothie - 2 glasses

    An easy way to turn your smoothie into a superfood powerhouse is with acai berries.  

    While I don't believe they are the cure-all to everything, some studies indicate that are higher in antioxidants than  cranberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries, or blueberries.  

    I used frozen Acai berry purees, you can also use Acai Powder.     I used one frozen pack for 2 smoothies, making it about fifty cents a smoothie, not bad!  

    2 Glasses of Acai Smoothie - an Acai Superfood Smoothie

    Instructions

    Step 1 - gather your ingredients:  frozen acai puree or acai powder, bananas, frozen raspberries, pomegranate juice and agave nectar. 

    Tip if you are using acai powder instead of frozen puree, use 4 tablespoons and add 1 cup of ice. 

    Step 2 - add the pomegranate juice agave nectar to a blender.  Then add the acai puree (or powder) raspberries, bananas and ice (if using acai powder.) 

    Step 3 - Process until smooth and creamy.

      I love smoothies but haven't tried acai berries yet. I know, what am I living under a rock? Also loving the sound of the ginger pear one, too. Thanks for linking up at #SaucySaturdays.
