Creamy, thick, silky, and smooth. This Healthy Acai Cocoa Beet Smoothie tastes like chocolate-covered berries with twice the amount of flavor and antioxidants! Superfood berry: Acai packs a powerful berry flavor to the smoothie mix along with cocoa powder as a sidekick. It's an unreal combination and a perfect breakfast meal! Dairy-free, nut-free, vegan, and paleo too!

ACAI BRANDS I LOVE
- Organic Acai powder from Healthy Truth tastes like red cocoa. It's quite wild in the taste department because it doesn't taste like the usual ACAI that you may be used to, it's more earthy in taste making this special, especially with chocolate. It's raw, and not freeze-dried. The texture is soft and smooth.
- The Acai powder made at Nuts dot com tastes like true berries and is freeze-dried. The texture is more coarse.

ACAI SUPERFOOD TIP
Acai powder mixed with carob or chocolate tastes like a drink for the gods. It's incredibly cocoa with a fruity hint.
IS ACAI POWDER GLUTEN-FREE?
- Healthy Truth Acai Superfood Powder is certified gluten-free and tested at 5ppm. It's organic, raw, and vegan.
- Nuts dot com Acai Superfood Powder is also certified gluten-free, organic, vegan, and tested at 10ppm.
- Not all Acai brands are gluten-free. You must check the ingredients, the labeling, and call the manufacturer
- If you are celiac I do not trust powders that are not certified gluten-free, FYI
- So I should probably just tell you that I'm really, really picky when it comes to choosing gluten-free superfood powders! For me, the powders must be certified gluten-free and at a lower PPM than 20.
