Acai has been hailed as a superfood and "the new pomegranate" for its antioxident powers. And now it's making its way into LA cocktails with Veev, an organic spirit made from the Brazilian berry and other natural ingrediants like prickly pear and acerola cherries.
It's not just the beverage's organic ingredients that make Veev an eco-friendly drink -- the company, which is the first alcohol brand to be considered carbon neutral, donates $1 from every bottle sale to Sambazon's Sustainable Acai Project, which helps protect this important fruit and the Brazilian rainforest, where it grows.
You're probably sold already, but we should tell you that our correspondent Pedro Andrade (who coincendatally also hails from Brazil) tracked down some Veev infused cocktails at a few hotspots, and the verdict was very positive.
Did we mention Veev is also less likely to give you a hangover? Bartender!!
