Pineapple and Coconut Water Juice with a Hint of Mint and Chia Seeds
I wanted to make a really healthy, yet tasty sports-style juice that was ideal for having after a run or work out. This juice is light and refreshing. Perfect for re-hydrating and for a little boost of energy!
You will need:
1 overripe pineapple (skin removed)
35-50g fresh mint
1 litre of coconut water
30-50g chia seeds
(Makes 4-5 servings)
Method:
Using a juicer, alternate adding in the pineapple and mint, starting and ending with pineapple, to insure you get all the mint juice.
Pour into a jug and add in the coconut water and the chia seeds. Allow it to sit until the chia seeds get almost jelly-like.
Then it’s ready to serve – pour into a glass or bring in a bottle to the gym and enjoy!
Best service chilled.
Top Tips:
