Acazoni Acai Cocktail

Acazoni Acai Cocktail

The Acazoni Acai Cocktail recipe is perfect for those folks who like to combine something a little sweet with something a little bitter. In this case, we like how the fruitiness of the acai liqueur pairs with the gin and bitters, making for a very interesting concoction. Think of this as an Old Fashioned but with a super food in it.

The super food here is the acai berry, a reddish fruit from the acai palm tree, native to Central and South America. The fruit’s pulp is considered rich in antioxidants and has a deep yet not overly sweet berry flavor.

Acai liqueur is made from macerated acai berries blended with Cachaca, a Brazilian spirit. The result is a complex fruity flavor with notes of spice and you can drink it neat, over ice, with soda or as a mixer.
