Ingredients

  • 1 cup of water
  • 1 tbsp of chia seed
  • 1 tsp of honey
  • 1 tsp of bag

Instructions

  • To make chia seed tea,  add 1 cup of water to a pan and bring it to a boil.
  • After boiling, pour the water into a jar or glass
  • Add green tea to the jar and let it steep.
  • Next, after removing the tea bag from water, add honey as per your taste.
  • Now add 1 tbsp of chia seeds to the cup and stir.
  • Wait for 2-3 mins before serving this tea, as once these seeds get absorbed into the water/tea, they open up, giving your tea a gelatinous or thick appearance.
  • You can also let it cool in the fridge and then enjoy the drink!

Notes

You can add other ingredients like cinnamon, ginger, vanilla essence, banana, and coconut milk to the tea for additional flavor. There are many different ways in which chia seeds can be added to your diet, these include chia smoothies, chia sweets, and more. You can try adding chia seeds to plain water to supply nutrients to your body while also keeping yourself hydrated.
