How to Mix Acai Berry Juice With Water
Acai berry juice is touted for its nutritional benefits. The berries are very high in antioxidants and are thought to reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer. The easiest way to reap the benefits of these berries is usually to consume them in juice form. However, 100 percent acai berry juice can be expensive. Some people also find the taste of acai berry juice to be too thick and bitter. Watering down the juice can make it more appealing to wallets and taste buds alike. As long as the juice is watered down minimally, most of the health benefits are maintained. The key is to not add any more water than necessary to the juice. Does this Spark an idea?

Continue adding water to the juice--1/4 cup at a time--until it tastes right. The final mixture should be at least 50 percent juice; if the juice is too watered down, you won't get the same nutritional benefits from it.

Tips & Warnings
If the juice is too sour or bitter for your taste, add a teaspoon or two of honey or sugar to the juice and water mixture. It's better to add sweetener to the juice than to buy the pre-sweetened variety.
