Açaí Cherryberry Smoothie

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

This week at Holy Family, my daughter Ashlyn’s school, we were the “Family of The Week”.    They asked me if I wanted to bring in a snack to the school, and I of course told them I was a smoothie expert and could blend up some smoothies for the kids.    So I packed up my 1.5 horsepower (really) Blendtec Blender, some Zola Açaí Puree and some frozen fruits and headed off in the rain to Ashlyn’s school.  I showed the first 5 minutes of the Zola Story  so they could see how Açaí was grown and harvested in Brazil and then (with Ashlyn’s help) blended up some Açaí.  The kids (and teachers) loved it! 

This is the recipe that gave the kids the purple mustaches and big smiles!
