Acai Bowl

My first encounter with a legit Acai bowl was in San Francisco. My brother Ryan took our family one day to at the best Acai bowl place ever called Basik. That was the start to my obsession with Acai bowls and trying to recreate the sacred experience of eating my first Acai bowl. My brother, Ryan, the spear head of our family acai movement, would make these everyday whenever he would come visit Kansas and I really can't emphasize enough how much I love them. This recipe comes from a mix of Ryan and I's recipe, so I hope you'll give it a try.
