In a large bowl, pour coconut milk and add Zen Basil seeds. Mix well and set for 3 minutes, then mix again. Add vanilla and any sweetness of your choice, then mix well again. Cover and chill overnight. May be prepared 2-3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator. Before serving: In a small bowl, add dry spirulina and water until a blue liquid forms. Be careful, it’s a strong color so a little goes a long way, and be careful with white counters. Now take out the Zen Basil seeds pudding from the fridge and split it into two bowls. Pour the spirulina mixture over one of the bowls of the pudding. Keep the other bowl as is. Decorate and top to your liking. Checkout our Instagram for the full video from October 10!
