Milk - I used regular milk for making chia coffee. But you can use any plant based milk instead of regular milk. Soy milk, almond milk or oat milk are perfect choices.

Coffee - I used instant coffee powder in this recipe but you can add a shot of espresso too. I have made this coffee with instant espresso. 

Sweetener of choice - instead of sugar, choose healthy alternative like honey, maple syrup or agave instead of sugar.

Chia seeds - start by using a tbsp of chia seeds, you can slowly increase it as per your need.
