That's entirely up to you! Still water is ideal if you're pouring the chia water into a sports bottle and want to sip it throughout the day. Do you fancy a more festive, fresh mocktail feeling? Then use lightly sparkling water. If you're using sparkling water, make sure to stir gently instead of shaking vigorously in a closed bottle!

Can I also use fresh ginger and turmeric instead of powder?

Easy

When you have a busy day ahead or your digestion could use an extra boost, plain water can sometimes be a bit bland. Making your own healthy chia water is the perfect way to effortlessly get your daily dose of hydration. This delicious turmeric ginger drink combines the spicy kick of ginger and chili with the golden wonder powder turmeric, fresh lemon juice, and a drop of sweet agave syrup.

The clever thing about this recipe? That would, of course, be those fantastic chia seeds! As soon as the seeds rest in the water, they become delightfully soft and form a thirst-quenching chia seed drink packed with fiber. Fill a large carafe, shake well occasionally, and enjoy this sparkling detox water with ginger all day long. This way, you stay fit and energetic, from early morning until late at night!

A fan of ginger? Then be sure to also make these ginger shots!

Tips

In the winter I like to add a ginseng cure (eg of Physalis). 1 capsule in the morning with my first glass flared water. The extra boost in the dark days is pleased with me!
