General knowledge about Açaí
Açai is a small, dark purple berry that grows in rainforests in Brazil. This prompts the question, "Where does acai come from?" Well, it specifically comes from the Euterpe palm, a tree indigenous to the Amazon rainforest.
The açaí pulp is a natural antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals. It contains minerals like Potassium and Calcium, Vitamin E, healthy fats like Omega 6 and 9, and proteins.
This popular fruit is now a major source of income for riverside communities because of the increasing global demand. Harvesters pick berries by hand, which is important for the economy in their areas.You can pronounce acai or açaí as "ah-sah-EE."
The correct way to spell this word is Açaí, as it originates from the Portuguese language. English writes "açaí" as "acai" because English does not use the letter ç found in Portuguese. That is how you pronounce it.Acai berries taste like a mix of berries and a hint of chocolate.
