Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups water
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 lemon

Instructions
 

  • Cut the lemon in half. Squeeze out about 1 ½ tablespoons of juice from one half and set aside. The other half can be thinly sliced for added flavor.
    Chia Seed Water
  • In a glass, add the water, chia seeds, and the freshly squeezed lemon juice. Drop in the lemon slices for an extra zing.
    Chia Seed Water
  • If your container has a lid, seal it and give it a vigorous shake to mix everything well. If not, simply stir with a spoon to combine.
  • Allow the mixture to rest for about 15 minutes. This wait time lets the chia seeds swell up and gel, giving your water a unique texture and boosting its nutritional value.
    Chia Seed Water
  • After the seeds have gelled, it's ready to drink. Enjoy it as a refreshing beverage any time of the day!
