Ingredients
  

  • 1 pouch frozen unsweetened acai puree
  • 2 pieces soft Medjool dates
  • 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup frozen mango chunks
  • 1 handful fresh baby spinach
  • 1 handful ice cubes (optional)

Equipment

  • Blender

Method
 

  1. To open the frozen pouch of acai puree, run it under warm water for 10 seconds. You should feel the puree loosen enough to break it up into chunks and will easily be able to open the bag with scissors.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine the acai puree, dates, orange juice, water, frozen mango, and spinach and blend until completely smooth.
  3. If you'd like a thicker shake, feel free to add a handful of ice cubes and blend again until your desired texture is achieved. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Tip 1: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Just give it a good shake before drinking.
  • Tip 2: You can freeze your Acai Smoothie in ice cube trays. Pop them into a blender later for a quick smoothie on the go!
  • Tip 3: Serve this smoothie alongside a light breakfast like oatmeal or yogurt for a balanced meal.
  • Tip 4: Feel free to swap out the mango for other fruits like pineapple or banana for a different twist.
  • Tip 5: Add a scoop of plant-based protein powder if you want to make it more filling, especially after a workout.
