A good chia tea is a thing of great pleasure. It is not easy to find one that has just the right blend of spice, sweetness and tea. As a busy mum, my tea often sits somewhere in the kitchen, or my desk until it gets cold and is barely touched. As the weather warms I tend to forego the hot (or not!) cups of tea and coffee and opt for a cold one instead.
Spring is still shifting between glimmers of warmth and back to coolness. This recipe was inspired by the warm weekend sunshine. I hope that you got to enjoy some too.
