Acai is the fruit of an Acai Palm Tree. The Berry is similar in appearance to a grape, but smaller and less pulp. It is almost all seed (80% of the fruit) the juice is really just in the skin. The palms mostly grow in Brazil and Northern South America in swamps and on floodplains. Acai has to be processed close to the source as it has a very short shelf life once picked. Acai is a superfruit, high in antioxidants and healthy omegas similar to the healthy benefits contained in red wine and olive oil.
