4.6 from 76 reviews

A refreshing and healthy Low Carb Fruity Chia Tea that combines the nutritional benefits of chia seeds with flavorful fruity tea and a sugar-free sweetener. Perfect for a hydrating, low-calorie drink that supports a low-carb lifestyle.

Ingredients

Scale

Chia Mixture

  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 cup water

Tea Mixture

  • 2 cups brewed fruity tea of choice (such as raspberry, berry blend, or hibiscus tea)
  • Sweetener of choice, such as 1-2 tablespoons Torani Sugar Free Raspberry Syrup or equivalent

Instructions

  1. Prepare Chia Seeds: Mix 3 tablespoons of chia seeds into 1 cup of water thoroughly. Make sure the seeds are evenly dispersed and not clumped. Refrigerate this chia mixture for 1 hour to allow the seeds to absorb the water and form a gel-like consistency.
  2. Brew Tea: Brew 2 cups of your favorite fruity tea. This can be any herbal or fruit-infused tea such as raspberry, berry blasts, or hibiscus. Allow it to cool to room temperature before mixing.
  3. Combine and Sweeten: Mix the chilled chia seed gel with the brewed fruity tea. Add your preferred sweetener; the recipe suggests Torani Sugar Free Raspberry Syrup for a low-carb option. Stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.
  4. Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the combined mixture for at least another hour to allow flavors to meld and the drink to become nicely chilled. Serve cold and enjoy a revitalizing low-carb beverage.

Notes

  • Use any fruity herbal tea according to your taste preference.
  • Sweetener is optional; adjust sweetness to your liking or omit for a zero-calorie version.
  • Make sure chia seeds are well mixed to avoid clumping.
  • This beverage is great for hydration and can be kept refrigerated up to 2 days.
  • For a more intense texture, soak chia seeds overnight instead of 1 hour.
