Notes

I mix each serving individually in an 8-ounce mason jar to make sure I get the right ratio of ingredients in every jar. It can get a little messy if you're not careful, so to make it easier, you can stir everything together in a larger container first and then pour it in, or just use a slightly larger jar so there’s more room to mix.
