I may be getting weird in my old age but I am always seeing these chia seed infused juice drinks around and I thought I would try making a chia iced tea.
I cold brewed this overnight and added the chia seeds this morning. After letting them sit for a few hours they got nice and plump. It’s kind of tasty, albeit slimy. It you try this I would recommend shaking the drink every once in a while to prevent the chia seeds from clumping together.

The chia seeds are so cool! I’ve been rehydrating them and keeping them in the fridge, then adding them to all sorts of things. Lemonade (really good!), teas, matcha lattes… :)
I bought some, too! I put mine in puerh.
@OMGsrsly – yep, I add mine to Oatmeal and Smoothies, a lot
@ashmanra – I may have gotten the idea from you!
There are a couple really nice new second flushes from Upton that I have my eye on.
Doug – I haven’t bought very much darjeeling this year, I am still trying to drink last year’s! ;-)
I totally understand. I have enough Yunnan Dian Hong to last me a couple of years.
