The palm’s sweet 👅 berries are described as having a combined flavor of raspberries, blackberries, and chocolate 🍫 .

There’s a little folklore as to how the fruit got its name.

The daughter of the chief Itaqui cried beneath a newly sprouted tree and her tears 💦 gave aid to producing the sweet berries during a rough period of famine for the tribe. It was named acai, his daughter’s name (Iaçá) spelled backwards.

Dark purple 💜 in color, the berries feature a hefty helping of antioxidants, fiber, and essential amino acids. They’ve been a staple in Amazonian cuisine for centuries, and the trees are maintained by local communities in a vigorous effort to preserve the Amazon rainforest.

These berries in their raw form perish quickly, but don’t fret! You can take all the time you like while enjoying our… KRATOMade™ Acai Berry Drink Mix!

It might not get the same attention as acai bowls on social media, but we welcome you to get a solid shot of your pinkish purple beverage to share with the community.
