How to Prepare Chia Margarita [Vegan]

  1. In a small glass, mix together the water and chia seeds. Set aside for 20 minutes or longer to form a gel. You may want to make a larger batch of this step if you suspect that more than one margarita will be needed, so that the readied chia is on hand.
  2. In a shaker filled with plenty of ice, add all the ingredients, except the soaked chia gel, and shake well.
  3. Strain into a large glass, add the chia gel, and stir until combined.
  4. Add stevia if a sweeter drink is desired.
  5. Transfer to a serving glass.

Notes

Extra palm sugar or agave nectar may be used in place of the stevia.
