Ingredients
- 500 ml Aquafina water
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons Flaxseeds
- 0.5 Lime
- 0.5 Lemon
Directions
Step 1
Start by pouring the 500 ml of Aquafina water into a medium-sized jug or a large drinking glass.
Step 2
Add 2 tablespoons of chia seeds to the water. Stir well with a spoon until the seeds are evenly distributed. The seeds might initially float atop but will settle and start absorbing water.
Step 3
Next, add 2 tablespoons of flaxseeds to the mix. Stir thoroughly again to ensure even distribution.
Step 4
Cut half a lime and half a lemon into thin slices or wedges. Squeeze them slightly to release the juices as you drop them into the water.
Step 5
Give the mixture a good stir and let it sit for at least 5-10 minutes. This allows the chia seeds to swell and the citrus flavors to infuse the water.
Step 6
Stir one last time before serving to redistribute the seeds and citrus slices.
Step 7
Serve the drink immediately or keep it refrigerated for up to 24 hours for a more intense flavor.
