Method
- In a small bowl, soak 1 tbsp of chia seeds in 3 tbsp of warm water. Let them sit for 10 minutes until they form a gel-like consistency.
- In a tall glass, combine 1 cup warm water, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar, and optional honey or monk fruit. Stir until well mixed.
- Add 1/2 tsp ground ginger and 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper. Stir again to blend the spices thoroughly.
- Stir in the pre-soaked chia seeds. Let the mixture sit for an additional 2 minutes to fully combine.
- Sip slowly and enjoy on an empty stomach or before a meal for maximum benefits.
Notes
Adjust spice levels based on taste preference (reduce cayenne for less heat).
Always use warm, not hot, water to preserve nutrient quality.
Drink within 10 minutes of preparation for best texture and flavor.
You can store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours, but fresh is best.
