Purple smoothie fruit (4)

I believe the answer is:

acai

(Other definitions for acai that I've seen before include "South American palm tree" , "fruit which is nutritious" , "something nutritional to eat" , "South American food product" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the USA Today.
