Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1000 ml Water
- 1 medium Lemon
- 1 medium Lime
- 1 medium Orange
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon Flaxseeds
- 5 leaves Mint leaves
- 10 pieces Ice cubes
Instructions
Start by washing the lemon, lime, and orange thoroughly under cold water to remove any wax or impurities from the skin.
Slice the lemon, lime, and orange into thin rounds, discarding any seeds.
In a large pitcher, pour in 1000 ml of cold water.
Add the sliced citrus fruits to the water, ensuring they are fully submerged.
Stir in 2 tablespoons of chia seeds and 1 tablespoon of flaxseeds into the pitcher.
Gently muddle or bruise the mint leaves to release their essential oils, then add them to the pitcher.
Add 10 ice cubes to the mixture to keep it cool and refreshing.
Stir the mixture well to combine the ingredients.
Cover the pitcher and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the infused water to sit for at least 1 hour before serving, so the flavors meld and the chia seeds begin to gel.
Before serving, give the mixture a good stir to ensure the seeds and fruit are evenly distributed.
Pour the infused water into glasses, ensuring each serving gets a combination of fruit slices and seeds.
Enjoy this refreshing Paleo Citrus Chia and Flaxseed Infused Water as a hydrating drink throughout the day.
