açaí
Brazilian palm fruit
Açaí is a small, dark purple berry from a palm tree native to Brazil's Amazon region.
The fruit has an earthy, slightly bitter taste often described as a blend of berries and chocolate.
Açaí bowls—blended frozen açaí topped with fruit and granola—became a health food trend in the 2010s: We grabbed açaí bowls after yoga.
