Ingredients
1 tbsp acai powder or puree (unsweetened)
1 cup frozen mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries)
1 large frozen banana, sliced
3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 tbsp hemp seeds or flax meal
Instructions
Place the frozen banana, frozen berries, acai, seeds, and almond milk into your high-speed blender container.
Puree on a low setting initially to break down the frozen fruit chunks.
Increase to high speed and blend for approximately 60 seconds until smooth and creamy.
If the mixture is too thick for the blades, add a splash of extra liquid in one-tablespoon increments.
Pour into a chilled glass and serve immediately.
Notes
Use fully ripened bananas with brown spots before freezing for maximum sweetness. You may substitute oat milk for a creamier texture or add a splash of pure pomegranate juice for an extra acidic kick.
