The acai berry, a South American fruit, is being incorporated into the menus of Provo juice bars, food trucks and smoothie venues.
Provo vendors, including Ivie Juice Bar, Jamba Juice and Bom Acai, have incorporated the superfood into their menu with acai bowls —a mixture of frozen blended acai berry, almond juice, fruits, nuts and honey. The trend seems to be catching on, because another store featuring acai bowls, Bowl of Heaven, opened this summer.
