Açaí Cherryberry Smoothie

Chris — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 23:29:32 +0000

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!

Açaí Cherryberry Smoothie

3oz Zola Açaí Puree (available at www.amazon.com )
3oz Vanilla Soymilk (unsweetened)
½ Fresh Banana
3oz Frozen Strawberries
3oz Frozen Cherries
