Glow Like Never Before with Acai Bowls at MoonShots!

If you're looking for a healthy, delicious, and nutrient-packed treat to fuel your day, you're in for a treat! At MoonShots, located in Guilford, CT , we’re raising the bar with our brand-new Glow Acai Bowls—crafted fresh from scratch, with 100% real organic acai and zero additives.

What's the secret to our uniqueness? It's the MoonShots difference. While other brands rely on factory-made bases laced with preservatives and processed sugars, we stick to what’s real: 100% organic acai, house-made bases, and natural sweetness from maple and fruit. No processed sugars, no seed oils, no shortcuts—ever.

�� Green Goddess Glow

This bowl is all about that radiant, earthy green vibe. It starts with our Infused Glow Base, made fresh with organic spinach, kale, apple, pineapple, mango, avocado, and our signature house-made vanilla almond milk. But the magic doesn’t stop there—we’ve infused it with grass-fed collagen, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C to give your skin that dewy, lit-from-within look. It’s the perfect mix of creamy, tangy, and nutritious, making it your go-to when you want to feel as good as you look.

�� Nutella Glow

Chocolate lovers, this one’s for you—but with a healthy twist you can feel good about. The Nutella Glow starts with our organic acai house-made base, which is blended fresh daily. We use cocoa and maple as natural sweeteners instead of processed sugar or artificial flavors. And here's the kicker: our “Nutella” is made without any seed oils, unlike our competitors' version. Add in collagen, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C , and this bowl becomes a truly guilt-free pleasure that nourishes your skin while satisfying your sweet tooth.

�� Laguna Beach Glow

Ever wish you could feel like you’re on vacation—even if it’s just for your lunch break? The Laguna Beach Glow is your tropical escape in a bowl. With a creamy base made of mango, avocado, and a coconut cream-almond milk blend (crafted in-house, of course), every bite feels indulgent. We’ve packed it with collagen and skin-nourishing nutrients to keep that sunny, beachy glow going all year round. This bowl is as refreshing as an ocean breeze (and it’s a local favorite already!).

Here’s Why Our Acai Bowls Shine Brighter

At MoonShots, we’re all about keeping it real. And when we say "real," we mean 100% real, organic ingredients. Unlike some competitors who rely on pre-made, preservative-laden mixes, every single one of our bowls is made from scratch, fresh to order.

Here’s what sets us apart:

Organic Acai, Always: Our acai bowls are pure and simple, with no funny business—just the good, clean superfood you deserve.
No Processed Sugars: We keep it sweet and natural using just fruit and maple syrup, skipping the cane sugar completely.
No Seed Oils: Our house-made “Nutella” is rich and chocolatey without any of those sneaky seed oils.
Glow-Boosting Ingredients: and Glow Bowl features superfoods like grass-fed collagen, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C to support your skin, hair, and nails from the inside out.

Our competition might have flashy marketing, but we’ve got substance—and you can taste the difference.

Avocado Toast - The modern day health food staple!

In recent years, avocado toast has taken the culinary world by storm and has become a beloved staple for the modern-day youth. This organic, healthy, and quick bite has not only captured our taste buds but also our hearts. It's a simple yet satisfying dish that combines the creamy richness of avocados with the crunch of sourdough bread, topped with a drizzle of garlic-infused olive oil. Let's dive into what makes avocado toast so irresistible and why it has become an essential part of our daily lives.

First and foremost, avocado toast is a healthy choice that aligns perfectly with the preferences of health-conscious individuals.

It takes just a few minutes to prepare, making it a perfect choice for those on the go. Smashing a ripe avocado, spreading it over toasted sourdough, and adding a dash of garlic-infused olive oil is a no-fuss process that delivers maximum flavor.

The addition of garlic-infused olive oil takes avocado toast to the next level. The aromatic essence of garlic marries beautifully with the creamy avocado, enhancing the overall taste experience. The combination of flavors and textures is simply divine.

Furthermore, the use of organic ingredients in avocado toast preparation resonates with the growing trend of sustainable and conscious eating. Organic avocados and sourdough bread not only taste better but also support environmentally friendly farming practices.

In conclusion, avocad o toast has become a beloved and essential part of the modern-day youth's diet. Its organic, healthy, and quick nature, coupled with the delightful addition of garlic-infused olive oil, makes it an irresistible choice for those looking to fuel their bodies and please their palates.

Giv Coffee!

kmoffittphotography@gmail.com — Tue, 26 Apr 2022 15:40:06 GMT

The Best Coffee in CT?!

400 million cups consumed everyday in the United States, yet so many options to choose from. You may ask yourself which is the best, we are here to tell you!

Giv coffee, created in 2011 has changed the coffee game. Speciality coffee has put the boring world of average off the grocery store shelf coffee to shame. Giv is a single origin blend meaning that the coffee comes from one farm and one farm only, rather than a Starbucks blend or DD blend that can consist of beans from numerous locations. Blends from multiple farms are poor in quality and may be prone to mold.

Over at Giv Coffee Jeff and Emily (Founders) are involved in every step of the process. The hard work has clearly paid off. Giv’s coffee beans are award winning, farm direct and all are well beyond specialty grade on the SCA ( Specialty Coffee Association ) scale. Forming relationships with farmers overseas, ensuring fair trade for their products and even donating the proceeds to those in need separates Giv from the competition.

A match made in heaven, Moon Shots paired with Giv Coffee is something that if you haven't tried yet, you're missing out! Award winning coffee, cold brewed for 24 hours with a splash of our delicious almond milk, there is nothing better!

Still not convinced? Check out the link below! Giv has won the best coffee shop in the state of Connecticut for 2022.

The Latest & Greatest, Purple Savage!

New Local Favorite!

Tired of sacrificing taste for health?! Not here at Moon Shots and certainly not with the cold pressed purple savage juice. The combination of purple cabbage, lemon, celery, apple, dandelion, and a touch of ginger is a taste like no other, delicious!

Purple cabbage, the most prominent ingredient in our juice is the powerhouse of dietary fibers, good quality carbohydrates, potassium, and plenty of vitamins as well as other essential minerals. Purple cabbage contains more nutrients and fewer calories which makes it an ideal vegetable for peak human health.

The trio of lemon, ginger, and apple in this cold pressed juice makes it strong in antioxidants, vitamin C, and immunity-boosting properties. Among further research, lemon and ginger can guard your body against harmful bacteria.

Dandelion, a secret to Purple savage’s amazing flavor is no slacker when it comes to health. Thought of as a lawn weed, dandelion’s health benefits often get mowed over. Chicoric and chlorogenic acid are two bioactive compounds found in dandelion that may help to lower one’s blood sugar levels.

Seeking your inner savage?! With an ingredient list this clean, you’ll be feeling rejuvenated whilst keeping your mind and body fueled for the task at hand.

Cold Brew VS Iced Coffee

kmoffittphotography@gmail.com — Mon, 04 Apr 2022 18:55:02 GMT

The debate is finally over!

Cold Brew vs Iced Coffee

While cold brew has taken the reigns as one of the most popular cold caffeinated drinks, there are still many misconceptions about the difference between cold brew and your run of the mill coffee poured over ice aka iced coffee.

The story of cold brew’s introduction to the world starts with a man name Todd Simspson, who, after taking a trip to Peru in 1960 was introduced to cold brew and developed his own “Toddy brewing system.” This system involves steeping coffee grinds for 12 - 24 hours in cold water In order to extract a rich, smooth, coffee flavor with a higher concentration of caffeine and lower acidity compared to its hot brewed counter part. Although Mr. Simpson brought cold brew to the world and swept the nation in popularity by the 90s, the first evidence of cold brew coffee was found in japans “Kyoto style brew” in the late 1600s.

Needless to say, cold brew is not a new trend but still relatively unknown in its unique brewing method and flavor profile when compared to a hot coffee poured over ice. In short this is the way cold coffee should be enjoyed. Using the cold brew method allows coffee makers to get the most out of their coffee roasts. Specialty coffee is preferred in the cold brewing method as the lack of heat helps to extract an amazing flavor with a low acidic, clean finish.

There are numerous benefits to specialty cold brewed coffee. Perhaps some of the most important being the roasting process. Specialty coffee is hand roasted in small batches to ensure a consistent rich flavor and only high quality coffee on the shelves. Speciality coffee trumps all others seeing that it is an Arabica blend. Arabica blends have a sweeter, smoother taste with hints of fruit or chocolate. Robusta on the other hand has a stronger, harsh, bitter taste easily picking up grainy or rubbery overtones Most commonly found in iced coffee aka hot coffee poured over ice.

Next time you are at your local coffee house make sure it is a cold brew and not just an ice coffee you are ordering for the best coffee experience,

or come to Moonshots where no further clarification is needed, we know and you know that you’ll be getting the best specialty cold brew on the shoreline.

Are sugars good for you?

website@sitemodify.com (Website Editor) — Thu, 15 Jul 2021 01:03:12 GMT

Lets talk about sugar!!!

��We get a lot of questions asking about the sugar levels of our juices and almond milk!

��We love serving a high quality organic product that’s all around good for you in many ways!! And we believe in being able to share all the info science behind it all as well! ��
