Green smoothie with kale and fruits.
This is good, it really is. The banana is what makes it bearable for me and the berries too. Surprisingly, avocado is really yummy in a smoothie especially if you add frozen diced mangoes and peaches. Oh my. When I say frozen, I mean fresh fruits that you dice yourself and freeze in your freezer.

I don't know. It's not from here (I think they import them from south america, but I don't know if it's grown other places).
^Those two (2) pages don't mention if it's only available seasonally. They say that acaii come from a palm tree. It looks like they're grown in south america and trinidad (but not tobago).
p.s. sometimes the internet is soooo repetitive when you try to look for information - they just keep repeating the same things over and over.
Acaii tastes pretty good and it's got a lot of antioxidants. That's pretty much what the internet wants us to know.
