Acai Berry Colada

The Beauty Diet

Deep red foods are power-packed with antioxidants that fight against free radicals, control acne, and help prevent wrinkles. Acai has high levels of phytochemicals, flavonoids, and phytosterols, not to mention 19 amino acids. The bromelain in pineapple and beet helps digestion and contributes to good skin.

Serves: 1

Ingredients

(use organic ingredients where possible)

• 1 young coconut (meat and water)
• 2 packages frozen acai (unsweetened)
• ½ cup pineapple
• ½ cup raspberries
• ½ medium beet
• 3 tsp olive oil
• 1 tsp baobab powder
• Raw honey to taste

Directions

1. Blend all ingredients in your high-speed blender and blend for 30 seconds or until smooth.

Note*

You may need to use the tamper with a VitaMix, or stop the blender and use a spatula to keep all the ingredients moving. This makes a beautiful, deeply-colored drink that is as delicious as it looks!
