Description

Sip on this lemon chia fresca, a refreshing lemonade-like drink with chia seeds that’s great for energy and boosting your metabolism. 

 


Ingredients

Scale

12 ounces cold water*

2 Tablespoons – 1/4 cup lemon juice

23 teaspoons chia seeds

56 drops liquid stevia, or 2 teaspoons maple syrup

1 pinch cayenne pepper


Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a glass and let sit for about 15 minutes in the fridge so the chia seeds have a chance to absorb some of the liquid and “gel” up. Enjoy immediately or save for later. Can be made ahead of time as the mixture should last at least 2-3 days in the fridge.

Notes

You can also use coconut water which is rich in potassium and magnesium.
