This smoothie is absolutely incredible! The creamy, frosty and nutty strawberry almond butter smoothie on top of the sweet and tart raspberry chai jam is a match made in heaven. The chai jam is sort of like the fruit-on-the-bottom concept in yogurt. If you dig your spoon deep enough you will get it in every bite. Or, if you are like me you can top the smoothie with more raspberry chia jam to ensure every bite is an effortless winner!
Chai seed jam is wonderful for digestion and tastes incredible. It is my favorite way to get fiber-full and omega-3-rich chia seeds into my diet. For best results, I like to make it in advance so it can really gel and cool off since it cooks on the stove. I recommend making it the night before if possible.

Prep Time: 5 minutes (+ 7 minutes the night before for the raspberry chai jam)
