Acai berries

Suriname is a country in South America. In the rainforest we could find this grape-like fruit called the acai berries or in the native language also called 'podosirie"
After it has been processed the seeds are put apart and the rest of the fruit would be used as a drink. The taste of this superfood can be described as a blend of chocolate and berries.
I personally buy this ready made fruit drink locally. And before drinking it I would add some milk, sugar and some ice to make it complete.
Have you ever tried this grape-like fruit known as the acai berry?
Do you know the benefits?
