Want a little boost in energy or your water to burn a little slower so you’re not running to the bathroom all day…try making a Chia Fresco.
It is a popular drink in Mexico and runners swear by it.
Ingredients:
2 cups water or coconut water
1.5 tbsp chia seeds
½ tbsp fresh lemon or lime juice, or to taste
Sweetener, to taste
1. Add chia and water into a jar or glass and stir very well to combine. Let sit for 10 minutes to allow the chia seeds to swell up. Use a jar with a lid so you can shake it up really well and break up the clumps of chia.
2. Add lime or lemon juice and sweetener to taste. Stir
or shake well to combine.
Note: Chia seeds will s collect at the bottom of the glass quickly. Give it a good stir as needed.
