These chia seed recipes are very similar to drinks sold in health food stores. Mama Chia and Synergy Kombucha are two of them. They are wonderful, but very expensive, and a lot of them are loaded with sugar. This post will show you how to make these drinks yourself. Rather than making them with commercial juices that contain way too much sugar and are generally unhealthy, I have included several low sugar drink recipes to make your chia seed drink with. These chia seed recipes are amazing and I have started drinking them every morning and it has completely regulated my digestive system.
