Notes

 TIPS 
Consistency Matters: If your pudding is too thin after refrigeration, add more chia seeds and let it set for another hour.
Natural Sweeteners: If you desire a sweeter pudding, you can adjust the quantity of maple syrup or try adding agave nectar or date syrup.
Freshness First: Always use fresh berries for the best flavor. However, if fresh berries aren’t available, frozen ones can be a substitute but may alter the consistency.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Texture Game: Add some crushed nuts or granola on top of your Vegan Berry and Coconut Pudding for a delightful crunch.
A Side of Vegan Ice Cream: Complement your pudding with a scoop of vegan ice cream on the side.
Fruit Fusion: Alongside berries, you can also top with sliced bananas or kiwi for a fruitier experience.
