Z, What do you think about bananas? I rarely see you post anything about them. Too high in sugar? Thanks girl!

It seems that there is no way to find frozen acai-berries here. You can only find only acai-berry flour which is made from dried berries.I know it is not as good nutritionwise but the only option. I am wondering how much would be a good amount. Is there anyone who has used some kind of acai powder on stead of frozen berries. Any tips? Or is there anyone other frozen berries I could substitute.

Not sure where you are from but I found the packets unsweetened at Trader Joe’s. It contains organic açaà purée water and citric acid.

Thank you for your response. I live in Finland. In case someone else have the same problem I substituted acai berries with black currant. They are berries my grandmother has in her yard and seem to be really good nutritionwise. I also like the taste. I’m still curious if someone has used the acai berry powder/flour.

We used other frozen berry mix here cause we don’t have the acai either in my country. Our blendtec (comparable to vitamix) didn’t blend this mix until it got like 400ml water added to it. So if you are like us u might need to add a little bit of liquid to make this work.
