Beverage Applications
For smoothies and acai bowls, add 0.3-0.5% to the base before blending. The authentic berry character elevates health-focused beverages. For cocktails, add 2-4 drops per 100ml to create sophisticated berry profiles.
Sparkling water applications use 1-2 drops per 100ml for subtle tropical refreshment. Hard seltzer producers should add 0.2-0.4% post-fermentation for natural berry depth.
Dairy and Frozen
Add 0.3-0.5% to ice cream base before churning for authentic acai flavor. For yogurt parfaits, fold in 0.2-0.4% gently. The natural tartness complements dairy beautifully.
- Ice cream: 0.3-0.5% of base before churning
- Yogurt: 0.2-0.4% folded in gently
- Smoothies: 3-5 drops per 8oz serving
- Milkshakes: 0.25-0.5% blended thoroughly
Confectionery Applications
For gummy candy, add 0.3-0.5% to the cooled mixture before molding. The natural berry flavor creates sophisticated candy profiles without artificial character.
Usage Notes
Flavorah concentrates are highly potent. Start at less than 0.75% and adjust upward. Resting time is essential for mellowing initial sharpness into rich, jammy complexity.

Flavor Profile
Flavorah Acai captures the deep purple berry at the heart of a cold morning bowl: tart, juicy, and quietly earthy.
The aroma is tart red berry with no candy sweetness. Opening notes are crisp and juicy, the body stays light with a purple-berry depth, and the finish is dry and clean with a faint grape-like edge.
Acai is a light flavor and not a base on its own: it shines as a top note or a subtle layer over a fuller base, adding a crisp, high-end lift to banana, cream, yogurt, and darker berries. Over-use brings a dry, tannic mouthfeel, so start small and build; it does its best work in the background.
Create Endless and Indelible Memories with Flavorah
All the flavors that we make at Flavorah are designed for mixing complex, layered recipes for products that may be consumed. Even though this Acai flavor will stand alone with memorable and captivating notes, we believe you will enjoy it most when you blend it with other flavors. It is our mission to create concentrates and extracts that become a powerful tool of flavor art in your culinary palette.
Use this Acai flavoring concentrate to develop your own artistic creations. As you blend it together with other complementary flavor layers, it will develop nuances and notes that either soften or strengthen according to your desire.
The layers of a completed flavoring profile can come from another Flavorah concentrate, such as Boysenberry or Alpine Strawberry, or from the medium you choose to mix it with. Try mixing Flavorah in baked goods, sweet frosting, syrups, a sugar-free smoothie, or a cocktail beverage.
Flavorah makes flavor art into an expression of individual perception and beauty. Our flavoring is designed to empower you to communicate this balance of potent perfection with the sense of taste and smell. Our Acai flavoring can harness the passing moments of enjoyment that will be experienced by everyone who samples your creation.
Flavorah is a product meant for the artist who wants to be tasted not heard, and smelled but not seen.
We know success when we see the satisfaction on the faces of our customers who create their own recipes. We delight in seeing our customers' recipes making the world a more bountiful experience for everyone to enjoy.
Layering Partners
Our customers around the globe have discovered that Acai layers well for memorable and complex creations:
- Flavorah Boysenberry: 1:2 (Acai to Boysenberry), with Acai as the supporting depth in a dark mixed-berry blend
- Flavorah Alpine Strawberry: 2:1 (Acai to Alpine Strawberry) for a brighter berry top note
- Flavorah Berry Blend: 2:1 (Acai to Berry Blend) to round out a mixed-berry profile
- Flavorah Sweetness: 4:1 (Acai to Sweetness) as a small accent
Acai also pairs beautifully with these; let your palate set the balance:
- Flavorah Banana and Flavorah Greek Yogurt for smoothie-bowl drinks, frozen yogurt, and milkshakes
- Flavorah Cream for frostings, ice cream, and cream sodas
- Flavorah Lemonade for a bright berry soda, syrup, or gummy
- Flavorah Mango and Flavorah Pineapple in a tropical punch, where Acai's tartness cuts the sweeter fruit
- Flavorah Virginia T as a light fruit accent over a smooth, hay-sweet cured leaf
Mood Through Combination
With banana and Greek yogurt, Acai leans comforting, like a breakfast bowl. With lemonade it turns bright and refreshing, and with cream it reads as an indulgent dessert.
Recipe Ideas
Berry Berry Good: Boysenberry, Acai, Alpine Strawberry, Berry Blend, and Sweetness at 8:4:2:2:1, a dark berry base for cream cocktails, milkshakes, smoothies, and cream sodas. Flavor artists also build smoothie bowls on Acai, Banana, and Greek Yogurt, and tropical punches with Mango and Pineapple.
Mixing Notes
Tartness is Acai's signature, so let sweeter partners carry the sweetness rather than pushing Acai higher. Too much brings a dry, tannic edge.
Building a Recipe
Begin with a small amount, taste, and build in small steps, testing in your own batch before you make more. As the star of a recipe Acai sits higher in each range; as a supporting berry layer, lower. Most finished profiles combine two to four flavors, so settle the ratios between them before raising the total.
DIY Flavoring in the Kitchen or Behind the Bar
- Beverages (home brew, cocktails, sodas): 0.03-1.5% of the finished drink; start at 0.1%, about 7 drops per 8 oz glass or about 19 ml in a 5-gallon home brew.
- Custom syrups: 2% or stronger (1 part flavor to 50 parts syrup); start at 2%, about 1 tsp per cup of syrup. Make it bold, then dose the syrup to taste.
- Baking: 0.2-3% by weight of batter or dough; start at 1%, about 1 tsp per 500 g of cake batter.
- Frostings, fillings, dairy, and frozen: 0.1-2% by weight; start at 0.3%, about 45 drops per 500 g of frosting. Taste frozen bases cold.
- Candy and gummies: 0.2-4% by weight; start at 0.5%, about 1/2 tsp per 500 g batch. Add as the batch cools.
- DIY fishing bait: 0.5-5% or higher by weight of bait; start at 1%, about 1 tsp per pound of dough bait. An unexpected berry note is worth testing on your water.
- DIY animal attractants: 1-5% or higher by weight; start at 2%, about 1 3/4 tsp per pound of attractant.
- Home aroma (candles, diffusers, room sprays): 1-5% by weight of wax or base; start at 2%, about 1 3/4 tsp per 16 oz candle. Pair with Cream for a softer, creamier scent.
