  • 1/4 cup chia seeds black or white
  • 4 cups water filtered or spring water
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice optional for flavor
  • 1 tablespoon honey optional for sweetness

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine chia seeds and water. Stir well to prevent clumping.
  2. Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chia seeds expand and form a gel-like consistency.
  3. If desired, add lemon juice and honey to the mixture and stir until well combined.
  4. Pour the chia seed water into a pitcher and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  5. Serve chilled, and stir before drinking as the seeds may settle at the bottom.
