Unless you've been in hiding since Christmas, you'll no doubt have heard that açai has been proclaimed the latest 'superfood'. So what's all the fuss about?
Açai is a small, dark fruit which grows on palm trees on the floodplains of the Amazon basin. It has the highest antioxidant count of anything measured so far by science, leading to it being labeled the world's healthiest fruit. Bossa Nova Açai juice is fresh Açai, sweetened with agave (syrup extracted from tequila cactus - it's good stuff! More neutral and sweeter than honey, with less of a blood sugar boost). Also, for every bottle you buy, Bossa Nova saves a rainforest tree. [GT]
