Sambazon's Superfood - Super Healthy. Super Tasty.

Several years ago, when I was shopping at Whole Foods, I was approached by a Sambazon representative who asked if I was familiar with Acai (ah-sigh-ee). He went on to tell me about this "wonder berry" from the Amazon rainforest and explained how it was going to be considered the next "super food." Taking a sip of this rich deep purple smoothie-like drink, I was amazed how this concentrated frozen berry mash tasted like every berry rolled up in to one with a hint of cocoa. It was really delicious. The Sambazon rep, smiled and didn't seemed surprised at all by my reaction. His expression back to me after one try was, "Right? Good, huh?"

It really was. I keep the organic smoothie packs in the freezer to create an awesome smoothie, especially when you need an extra pick-me-up.

Sambazon's Acai is certified organic. The acai berry is packed with antioxidants and Omega fats -- all the good nutrients we hear so much about, even on Oprah.

The Acai team has a great backstory just featured on Donny Deutsch's The Big Idea on CNBC as well. The show surprised me that Sambazon is just getting attention now. The funny part is, it only took one sip for me 2 years ago to get hooked and become a raving fan. 

Sambazon's mission goes beyond bringing this super food to the U.S. They also take great care in bringing economic success through the Sustainable Development Model. Read more about Sambazon's Sustainable Acai Project on their website as well.
