OAKBOX Has Arrived — A New Açaí Experience for Summer
I don’t drink coffee for the taste and because I typically don’t need the caffeine. However, I wanted to bring a morning beverage in to school for all my classmates. Therefore was delighted to learn that OAKBOX is offering an alternative to the coffee caddy or latte run.
For those unfamiliar OAKBERRY, is a globally recognized brand that originated in Brazil. It has gained international recognition for its high-quality açaí bowls and smoothies. And this season the English Bay location has released this OAKBOX!
This is a limited-quantity offering, with only 75 boxes available. Not only is this something that can help you cool down during the hotter weather, but it is a healthy alternative to sugary drinks as well. Designed for groups and outdoor gatherings like picnics, beach days, and park hangs in mind.
There are two box options: one that serves 4 people and a larger one that serves up to 8. Ideally enjoyed right away, but you can freeze it for a day or two and it would be just fine. Just don’t make the same mistake I did and put the açai blend in the fridge. It needs to be kept frozen in the freezer, then taken out about 45 minutes before serving, allowing it to be thawed and easier to scoop with the supplied ice cream scooper.
The box set includes everything needed for a build-your-own açaí experience. You get to choose your desired fresh sliced fruit, signature drizzles, and classic toppings. Two of each, all pre-packed and ready to go.
The options for dry toppings includes Granola, Coconut, Dry Milk, PB Crumbs, or Crispy Quinoa. Drizzles choices include Peanut Butter, Almond Butter, Honey, or Condensed Milk. And fruit options are banana, strawberries, or blueberries.
I got granola and dried coconut with strawberries and blueberries with peanut butter and condense milk as drizzles. Everyone had a great time customizing their cups to their own preferences. The activity was just as fun as eating it. The toppings for texture, the fruit for freshness, and the drizzle for sweetness.
I highly recommend this for a fun office treat.
