1.5 cups coconut milk (can sub any nut milk)

1/2 cup coconut water

Handful of nut milk cubes (or ice cubes)

Add 1 cup of non-dairy milk of choice (saving 1/2 cup for later) and chia seeds to a bowl and stir. Let sit 5 minutes and stir again to avoid clumps. Place in fridge overnight or at least 1 hour. The next day, add the chia mixture to a high speed blender with remaining ingredients and pulse until smooth and creamy. Store any leftovers in a jar in the fridge. Enjoy!
