Bio: I am a recent graduate from San Diego State University and received a degree in Business Marketing. I moved down to San Diego to go to school, but now I am looking forward to starting my career in this beautiful place! I am originally from Northern California but I have Greek heritage. I hope one day to learn how to speak Greek because I know my grandparents would love it if I could speak with them in their native language. I have always wanted to move to Europe for a short period of time but have never had the guts to do it! One thing that people, who aren’t my close friends, don’t know about me is that I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan and have even dressed up in Harry Potter attire for the movie premieres!

Never one to pass up free samples, I immediately walked over to the table and started trying some of the flavors. This stuff is delicious! It comes in four flavors: Cherry Lime, Raspberry Passion, Blackberry Hibiscus and my personal favorite, Cranberry Lemonade.
By Ray Latif – No longer just for dog-shaped window plants, chia is now a rising star in the world of “superfoods” — and a fast-emerging ingredient to watch in the beverage industry.
For a long time chia seeds were only stocked at health food markets, touted as a “superfood” with numerous health benefits. The seeds could be used in many different ways, easily blended into baked goods, and toasted and incorporated into salads. But now chia seeds have gone mainstream with texturally memorable Mamma Chia drinks.
Being a little familiar with the health benefits of chia and super curious, I picked a bottle of the Raspberry Passion flavor. I loved it! It’s like a slightly sweet tea flavor with the fun crunch of the chia seeds in a every sip! I can’t wait to try the other flavors.
