Mornings in Harlem are a little like a blank page — full of possibility, light, and the subtle promise that today could be magical. And what better way to start than with a breakfast that feels like sunrise itself? This acai bowl is not just food; it’s a ritual, a little celebration in a bowl. The sweetness of the berries, the creamy acai, the crunch of granola — it’s a reminder that mornings deserve intention, energy, and beauty.
Ingredients:
• 1 cup frozen acai puree
• 1 banana, sliced
• 1/2 cup frozen mixed berries
• 1/2 cup almond milk
• 1/4 cup granola
• 2 tbsp shredded coconut
• Drizzle of local honey
Instructions:
1. Blend the frozen acai, banana, berries, and almond milk until smooth.
2. Pour into a bowl and top with granola, coconut, and honey.
3. Pause for a moment — breathe, savor, and enjoy the sunrise before the day begins.
