A Spoonful of Honey helps the Tea go down!

Or perhaps not?

Hi everyone, as I mentioned in a previous post I am trying to be healthier this year by cutting down on the fizzy drinks and sugary treats, so far I haven't had a single drop of coke since new years eve (I am very, VERY pleased with this) and I'm doing alright with the treats as well.

At the moment we only have two types of tea Green tea and Peppermint tea, I have been looving the peppermint tea so much, it has such a nice minty flavour (obviously) and leaves your breath smelling nice and fresh which is quite nice =)

The Green tea on the other hand... I'm not loving so much, I know it is probably the best (health wise) tea for you to take but I am not enjoying the flavour of it at all, I'm finding it very hard to swallow down and it leaves such a nasty aftertaste in your mouth! =(

To try and help improve the taste I thought of adding a teaspoon of honey into the tea, whilst it did help a little bit I still was feeling very 'meh' about the whole thing (maybe two spoons are needed) 

If anyone has any tea flavour.. enhancement.. booster.. tips or ideas feel free to share!

As you can tell I'm a fan of twinings, I love their peppermint tea (as mentioned) and I am eager to try some more flavours so if anyone has any reccomendations or favouite flavours feel free to share them!

Bye for now!

Teas Please!

Hi Everyone!

One of my resolutions for 2015 was to make some positive changes to my health, I wont lie and say that I am a slim sally (... I dont know where that came from) I'm actually quite pudgy, which is fine, I'm comfortable in my own skin, however, I suffer from several ailments which means that the extra chubbyness does not help.

So to remedy that, one of the changes I am currently making is to drink more herbal tea!

As you can see we don't have much of a selection, truth be told it's my brother who drinks the green teas in our house, however I'm jumping on the bandwagon to try and drink more of it because at the minute I am drinking far, far too much fizzy drinks (I mean I practically drink a 2L bottle of coke per day)

yikes! I know.

The reason being is that I'm not much of a fan of tea or coffee so the fizzy juices are my way of getting a bit of a caffeine buzz.

Not the most healthy of lifestyles I know

So here's to more tea!

Also if anyone has any tips of spicing up the teas (I find them to be a little bit bland, probably due to my excessive sugar intake) or perhaps any flavours to recommend I would love to hear from you!

Thanks for reading!
