Last weekend I was signed up for a swimrun in Georgia and I was looking for something I could eat or drink pre race with my cranky GI tract. I love food! But for some reason, my body is just ridiculously particular, and race day is not the day to put in an offensive item!
I found this amazing concoction of blackberry and hibiscus and Chia and I felt great! Great taste, great energy and great outcome.
I liked it so much that as soon as I was home, I was in the kitchen trying to figure out a combination of energy (yes, that’s code for Caffeine!), calories and delicious. My kids have been drinking it up, so I’m guessing it hits the mark! Try it and tell me what you think please!
