This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Sambazon via my partnership with Mambo Sprouts. All opinions are entirely my own. Full PR & Disclosure here.

Acai (pronounced ah-sigh-ee) is a small purple berry that grows on the Amazon banks.

It’s best known as a superfood because it’s packed with antioxidants, omegas and vital nutrients that gives them restorative powers. These berries are naturally sugar-free and work perfectly in smoothies and smoothie bowls.

Sambazon is a tribe and a company. They harvest Açai from the north of Brazil like they’ve done for centuries: by hand and with great care. Sustainable is who they are and they use that business model in everyday practices making sure their products are always be certified USDA organic, fair trade, and non-GMO.

If you’re fitness-minded like me, then protein smoothies are most likely always on the menu. For today’s recipe I used Sambazon’s Açai Berry + Protein + Strawberry Superfruit Packs plus frozen berries, banana and apple juice. I topped it with strawberries, coconut and blueberries and the result was mouthwatering!

My family loved the bowl so much that they had me made a second one for everyone to share!

Looking for more of a drinkable smoothie? Try the Açai Berry Kale Spinach Supergreens packs! All you need is 2 superfruit packs plus 1 cup apple juice, 1/2 frozen banana and 1/2 cup frozen cherries. Blend, top and enjoy!

I hope you enjoy this smoothie bowl as much as we did!
