  3. Boost with chia seeds (optional): If you prefer a thicker texture and added fiber, include chia seeds at this stage before blending.
  4. Pulse until smooth: Run the processor at high speed and process the everything until well incorporated and it becomes creamy, frothy, soft and smooth in texture.
