Açai has been trending in the food world for its great benefits, as well as its versatility.

Açai is an on-going trending fruit amongst the health fanatics, due to the benefits and the ease of access to this fruit for cafés and restaurants. Açai is an exponential Amazonian super fruit that is grown in palm trees, containing high antioxidants which offers anti-inflammatory benefits. Moreover, it also contains Omegas 3, 6 and 9 which are overall fatty acids similar to olive oil and are said to support brain function, heart health and healthy skin and hair. Another great thing about Açai is that it is one of the only fruits that does not contain any sugar. It is a sugar-free fruit in its natural state. However, if you're a sweet-tooth you can add some natural sugar such as agave or honey.

There are endless possible uses for Açai for this coming Summer, either you're planning for holiday functions, to add to your menu or just for yourself. The three most common uses of Açai are Açai bowls, smoothies and popsicles, which are awesome in helping you cool down.

Açai bowls are best known as options for brekkie or brunch. Just blend Sambazon Açai Sorbet or Sambazon Original Pulp Sachet with frozen fruits and non-dairy/dairy milk, topped with your favourite muesli, granola mix or fruits of your choice.
