This açaí bowl will give you lots of energy and flavor - especially recommended before exercising.
This is how we make açaí in Rio. Guaraná gives you extra power and adds some sweetness to the Açaí. The combination of guaraná and açaí gives your body a lot of energy and helps fighting fatigue. So it is no surprise to see long lines of people in front of the famous juice shops near beaches in Copacabana and Ipanema for a bowl of açaí before hitting the gym.
Açaí and Guaraná is a powerful combination - the Açaí berry is of easy digestion, quickly providing plenty of energy, without giving a heavy stomach sensation. Guaraná boosts your stamina and awareness, making it easier to go through hard training sessions. In addition, it delays the feeling of fatigue, especially in longer exercise routines. It is rich in caffeine and antioxidants that accelerate the metabolism and favor the use of fat as fuel for the body.
And much more important: they are delicious together.
