Why You’ll Love This Bowl
Açaí bowls are a staple for anyone who loves starting the day with something refreshing, vibrant, and nourishing. But this recipe takes the classic to the next level by blending in JOI Coconut Powder. The result? A subtle sweetness and tropical hint of coconut that pairs perfectly with berries and bananas. Light, energizing, and absolutely crave-worthy.
Why Make This Recipe
This bowl checks all the boxes: delicious, nutrient-dense, and simple. Packed with antioxidants from açaí and berries, fiber from fruit, and healthy fats from coconut, it fuels your body while delighting your taste buds. It’s also endlessly customizable, making it perfect for busy mornings, post-workout fuel, or even a refreshing afternoon pick-me-up.
Why It’s So Easy
Frozen fruit + blender = breakfast in minutes. That’s the beauty of this açaí bowl. With a short list of whole, real ingredients, you can whip it up faster than you can scroll your feed.
You can even prep the smoothie bowl base ahead and just add water to the blender when you're ready to make it.
And thanks to JOI plant milk concentrates, you get fresh, clean plant milk instantly — no fillers, gums, or additives.

Why Use JOI
Not all plant-based products are created equal. Most grocery store options sneak in gums, seed oils, preservatives, and stabilizers that can cause digestive issues (see Healthline on food additives). JOI does things differently:
-
Clean-label: Just real ingredients, no junk.
-
Sustainable: Concentrates reduce packaging waste and carbon footprint (World Resources Institute).
-
Convenient: Make as much or as little as you need with JOI pantry staples.
Ideas to Customize
Half the fun of an açaí bowl is what you pile on top—or even how you build the base. Try:
-
Base: Blend in a scoop of JOI Almond Milk Powder for extra creaminess and plant-based protein.
-
Crunch: Granola, toasted coconut flakes, or nuts.
-
Fresh fruit: Mango, kiwi, pineapple, or extra berries.
-
Boosts: Chia seeds, hemp hearts, or sunflower seeds.
-
Drizzle: Maple syrup, honey, or JOI Almond Concentrate or JOI Cashew Concentrate.
