Chia Green Tea

This drink is great for an afternoon pick-me up. The green tea gives you a boost in energy and the chia seeds help ward off hunger until dinner. Both chia and green tea are healthy - making this a treat to feel good about.

Chia Green Tea

Ingredients:

4 cups of water
8 tea bags (your favorite green tea - I like to add some ginger tea, too)
4 - 6 tbsp agave (or 2 tbsp stevia)
1-3 tbsp lemon juice
4-8 tbsp chia seeds, divided

Directions:

Boil the 4 cups of water and pour it over the 8 tea bags in a 2 quart jar for tea. Let the tea steep for 5-7 minutes and then remove the tea bags. Add the sweetener and lemon, and enough water to fill the 2 quart container.

When ready to serve add 1/2 tbsp of chia seeds to a 12 oz serving of tea.  Let the chia seeds soak for 20 minutes and enjoy. I like to bring this tea in a shaker/blender bottle to work and drink it in the afternoon for a sweet treat.
