Acai Powder Freeze-Dried Acai Powder is an Amazonian Power Berry. Navitas Naturals Acai has long been a cherished food of traditional Amazonian cultures for its health benefits and unique taste. Favored among athletes and health seekers, the deep purple acai berry is a potent source of antioxidants, healthy fats, and essential micronutrients. Navitas Naturals freeze-dried whole berry powder makes it easy to enjoy acai’s rich and creamy texture, along with its unsweetened mild flavor hinting of chocolate and berries. Try this superfood scooped into a smoothie or milkshake, blended into a parfait, or mix into a batter to give desserts a delicious acai boost.
Source and Processing Navitas Naturals Acai Power comes from the low-lying coastal areas of Brazil. Due to the delicate nature of the berry, the fruit is transported immediately after harvest where it is hand-inspected for quality. The whole berries are then freeze-dried and low temperature milled to ensure maximum nutrient content, resulting in a powder that is both nutrient-rich and easily integrated into your favorite recipes. The only ingredient in our wonderful Acai Power is pure 100% organic acai that is also certified kosher and vegan.
Acai (Ah-Sigh-EE): a small, dark purple berry which is the fruit of a native South American palm tree from the genus Euterpe.
Super Palm of the Amazon
Native to the tropical floodplains of Central and South America, acai berries grow on tall palm trees extending up to 25 feet high, which are climbed and harvested by hand. Acai has enjoyed a long history of popularity extending thousands of years: from ancient Amazonian tribes using it medicinally, to modern Brazilian surf cultures prizing acai as an excellent energy food. Navitas Naturals offers this superfood in a convenient freeze-dried whole berry powder.
The Power of Acai
Nutritionally, acai is considered a true antioxidant powerhouse, and is loaded with healthy monosaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids. The berries are also a great source of vitamin C, and posses many other micronutrients including polyphenols and flavonoids.
Purple Purity
In addition to its stunning color, Navitas Naturals’ Acai Power lends a delightfully rich and creamy texture, and offers an unsweetened mild flavor that hints of chocolate and berries. It’s an instant hit when scooped into to a smoothie or milkshake, stirred into yogurt sprinkled with granola, or whisked into a favorite dessert recipe.

Chef's Notes:
Acai is naturally unsweetened, and pairs well with most sweeteners (which help bring out stronger flavor notes of berries and chocolate).
Add 1-2 Tbsp acai powder per serving of a smoothie, or mix into a sorbet or ice cream.
The powder form of acai is a convenient way to eat and store this fruit, which can even be blended into a flour.
Acai also lends a deep purple color to any recipe, adding a stunning visual effect.
