Ingredients
  

Pudding Base
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 2 cups coconut milk (or any milk of choice) Can substitute with almond milk, soy milk, etc.
  • 1/2 cup key lime juice
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup Adjust sweetness to preference.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 unit zest of 1 lime For garnish.
  • a pinch salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, coconut milk, key lime juice, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  2. Use a whisk to mix everything together for about 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly, preventing clumping of chia seeds.
  3. Cover the bowl or transfer to individual serving jars. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to let the chia seeds absorb the liquid.
  4. Before serving, give it a good stir, and add lime zest on top. Optional: add fresh fruit or nuts for extra crunch.
