Ingredients
- 1000 ml Water
- 1 medium Lemon
- 1 medium Lime
- 1 medium Orange
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon Flaxseeds
- 5 leaves Mint leaves
- 10 pieces Ice cubes
Directions
Step 1
Start by washing the lemon, lime, and orange thoroughly under cold water to remove any wax or impurities from the skin.
Step 2
Slice the lemon, lime, and orange into thin rounds, discarding any seeds.
Step 3
In a large pitcher, pour in 1000 ml of cold water.
Step 4
Add the sliced citrus fruits to the water, ensuring they are fully submerged.
Step 5
Stir in 2 tablespoons of chia seeds and 1 tablespoon of flaxseeds into the pitcher.
Step 6
Gently muddle or bruise the mint leaves to release their essential oils, then add them to the pitcher.
Step 7
Add 10 ice cubes to the mixture to keep it cool and refreshing.
Step 8
Stir the mixture well to combine the ingredients.
Step 9
Cover the pitcher and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the infused water to sit for at least 1 hour before serving, so the flavors meld and the chia seeds begin to gel.
Step 10
Before serving, give the mixture a good stir to ensure the seeds and fruit are evenly distributed.
Step 11
Pour the infused water into glasses, ensuring each serving gets a combination of fruit slices and seeds.
Step 12
Enjoy this refreshing Paleo Citrus Chia and Flaxseed Infused Water as a hydrating drink throughout the day.
