Ingredients
- 4 Cups Water
- 2 Tbsp Freshly-Squeezed Citrus Juice such as lemon, lime
- 2 Tbsp Chia Seeds
- 1 Tsp Maple Syrup optional
Instructions
- Add the water, citrus juice, chia seeds, and maple syrup to a jar. Stir well.
- For best results, cover jar and place in the fridge. Wait 15-20 minutes to allow the chia seeds to absorb water. Once done, stir again, and drink.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- For the citrus juice, I recommend using one sour citrus (like lemons or limes) plus one sweeter citrus (like oranges, clementines, tangelos) for the flavor. However, you can just use one type of citrus, or mix and match however you like!
- The measurements used in this recipe are ideal for a mason jar, which holds about 4 cups of liquid.
- You can drink the Chia Seed Water right away, but I highly recommend waiting for them to gel up for the best experience.
- Nutritional information is calculated without adding maple syrup.
