Icy Chia Fresca

July 16, 2009 By 9 Comments

Made this for the sec­ond day in a row. Pretty easy, nutri­tious, and sur­pris­ingly tasty and refresh­ing. I didn’t fol­low a recipe and am still exper­i­ment­ing. Let me know if you try this recipe or your own variation.

Icy Chia Fresca

Ingre­di­ents
1/2–1 Tbs Ground chia seed
~6 ice cubes
1/2 cup water
1/2 lime
4 drops vanilla stevia

Instruc­tions
Place all in a blender and let ‘er rip. Serve in glass. I like to use a spoon to scoop up the icy slush. A sprig of mint on top would be great, I’m sure. You could also use lemon­ade instead of water.

    The only thing I did dif­fer­ently, was use whole Chia seeds, I used Lemon Juice instead of Lime Juice, I sub­sti­tuted Light Agave Nec­tar and/or Grade B Maple Syrup for Ste­via, and I added a tiny pinch Cayenne Pep­per for a lit­tle kick! I’ll try your recipe next time!

    Thanks for the note, Christina. The pep­per sounds like a great idea. I have become a big fan of agave now — it works so well in cold drinks, too.
