Main Ingredients:
- 3 cups water
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 lemon
Instructions
- Juice the Lemon: Juice half of the lemon (about 1 ½ tablespoons of juice) and slice the other half.
- Prepare the Drink: In a mason jar or other drinking jar, mix the water, chia seeds, lemon juice, and lemon slices. If the jar has a lid, give it a good shake. Let it sit for 15 minutes to allow the seeds to gel and plump up.
- Enjoy: Stir or shake the drink before each sip, as the chia seeds tend to settle at the bottom. You can use a glass straw for easy stirring between sips.
Notes
- Remember to shake or stir the drink before drinking to distribute the chia seeds.
- For easy stirring, use a glass straw.
