Chia Berry Lemonade


Happy Earth Day! Summer is just around the corner and I have been getting into the summer spirit with the most refreshing drink, a chia berry lemonade! It is so easy to make and is great anytime of the day.

To make the Lemonade you will need the following:

  • 2 Lemons
  • 1/2 Cup of Berries, I used raspberries and strawberries
  • 1 Cup of Coconut Water
  • 2 Teaspoons of Chia Seeds
  • 1 Teaspoon of honey
Mix all of the ingredients into a cup, chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour, then enjoy!



This drink is even better because, chia seeds will expand when they are added to a liquid, so you feel fuller longer. Chia has been linked to help you fight belly fat! Not only are they gluten/grain free naturally, but one tablespoon of Chia Seeds has more calcium than a glass of milk, more Omega-3s than Salmon, and more antioxidants than blueberries.

Do you have a favorite summer drink?
Do you use chia seeds? If so, what do you add them too?
