Taste the Amazon's superfruit in its homeland, served as a thick purple smoothie bowl topped with granola, banana, and honey at beachside kiosks. Rio's acai is less sweet than exported versions, with an earthy, almost wine-like flavor that's refreshing after a day in the sun. Head to Copacabana or Ipanema beaches where vendors blend it fresh - it's the perfect post-workout fuel that locals have enjoyed for generations.
