Ingredients & Substitutions
Coconut water is my favorite base for this drink because it’s naturally sweet and hydrating. If you can’t find it, you can use regular water, but it won’t have that same tropical vibe. I often adjust the sweetness by tweaking the maple syrup – sometimes I skip it altogether if the coconut water is sweet enough!
Tips & Notes
- •I keep my chia seeds in a glass jar – they stay fresh for weeks, and I love having them on hand for smoothies or puddings too.
- •If you want to make this ahead of time, prepare everything except the sparkling water. Add it just before serving to keep the fizz!
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I’ll add a splash of pineapple juice for a tropical twist, and it’s lovely!
- •If I’m feeling adventurous, I’ll throw in a few slices of fresh ginger for a little zing.
Storage & Freezing
This Coconut Chia Seed Fizz is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, store them in the fridge and drink within a day. Just remember to give it a gentle stir before you sip!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different sweetener?
Absolutely! Agave syrup or even a bit of date syrup works well, just adjust to your taste.
