Servings 4 people
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut milk or other plant/nut milk
- 1 1/4 cups almond milk unsweetened
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 2 cardamom pods Seeds only (outer shell discarded) ground using a mortar and pestle, or 1/4 tsp cardamom powder
- 2 tbsp palm/coconut sugar, date sugar, maple syrup or other sweetener of your choice
- Zest from 1/2 lemon (or 1 lime)
- Fruit of your choice For a quick option simply blend defrosted frozen berries.
Instructions
- Mix the liquid with the flavors and sweetener. Stir well until the sugar has dissolved, then mix in the chia seeds. Stir very well and refrigerate for at least two hours. Serve with your choice of fruit. It’s that easy!
- As for the fruit topping here is a suggestion: serve it with a fruit salad made from honeydew melon, cantaloupe melon, and ripe mangoes mixed with fresh mint and drizzled with fresh orange juice. Seriously nice combination!
