Description
A fiber-rich, tangy drink that supports appetite control and energy levels, perfect for busy mornings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces cold water
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 1 to 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- Juice of half a lemon
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger or a pinch of ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
- Small pinch of cinnamon
- 2 to 3 ice cubes
Instructions
- Stir the chia and flax into the water, let sit for 5 minutes to let them plump up.
