Believe


Hey guys!

Today I wanted to chill down and just enjoy what life has got to give and because of that I’m listening to Benjamin Booker’s “Believe”. It’s a soulful track that just makes me just let go and listen to his raspy voice that makes this a great experience. It’s a beautiful song that I can’t stop listing too especially on this windy, cold day. It’s infectious with its blues sound that almost feels like a gospel talking about believing in something and finding a reason for life.

Now for the tea, I’m thinking that an herbal tea is the perfect choice; something that will give us a good feeling, a warm embrace. I have the feeling that Garden Harvest is what is needed. It’s a mix of both fruits and herbs, sweet and calming with just a pinching taste of spices.  The blend is made from: orange peel, lemon peel, chamomile, rose-hips, hibiscus, cloves, cinnamon & cornflower. Anyone can find something to love in this tea, so give it a try.

Starlight


Hey you!

So today a certain someone wanted to listen to something from Muse, and since my favorite song from them is “Starlight” that’s what we are going to listen. I love this track; it’s about being away from home or loved ones but still feeling their love no matter what. It’s an amazing melody full of guitar riffs and drum kicks that you can sing along to; filled with good vibes and amazing lyrics. I especially like when the rhythm changes a little when the hook comes in, that’s my absolute favorite thing in the song, plus the lyrics :D  

As for the tea, I’m choosing something refreshing, light and still mood boosting with a taste to die for. It’s called Passion Flower and it’s a blend made from:  honey bush, white tea, passion flower, blackberry leaf, lemon peel, hibiscus and extract from passion fruit, mango & lemon.  Is like a tropical island vacation for your senses, with a nice light fruity taste to it. It’s a perfect beverage for any occasion, day or night.

The Best Has Yet To Come

Hey guys!

Today is a special day; it’s the birthday of one of my best of friends, someone who’s been with me thru the good and the bad. And because of that I need you to help me wish her a happy and perfect birthday; full of great memories, with flawless moments and good times, cause she deserves it. Our friendship isn’t an very old one but it’s one that I hold dear to my heart, full of amazing memories, great stories and lots of laughter and that is why you birthday is important to me.

Now… like always when it’s someone’s birthday they choose the song and tea they like in this moments. She wanted something that has apple and cinnamon as their main ingredients and keeping that in mind I searched the tea database and found the Cinnamon Apple Spice. A bend made from: cinnamon, apple, hibiscus, chamomile, roasted chicory, orange peel and roasted carob. This is a sweet and full of flavors tea, with a strong smell and taste of apple and cinnamon now to overpowering so the rest of the ingredients get to shine a little. You can consume it at any time of day, it doesn’t contain caffeine and it even has chamomile so if you dink it before bed you might fall asleep like a baby.

As for the tune of the day, her choice is “The Best Has Yet To Come” from Scorpions. This is a powerful ballad, it’s catchy and passionate, a blend of classical form with hard rock dynamics, guitar and vocal that doesn’t give in to modern clichés but a renewed version of themselves.  Klaus Meine's recognizable vocal are a familiar sound, not to nostalgic but a pleasure to listen to. I’ve got to say some of the lyrics from the chorus fit prefect with our friendship and somehow this song has more meaning to me to. “Through the highs and lows/ And how can I live without you/ You're such a part of me/ And you've always been the one/ Keeping me forever young/ And the best is yet to come”.

Kisses and Go drink (and with my awesome friend a happy birthday), I’m already drinking mine.


Have a wonderful day, a happy birthday and a life you can be proud of my dear friend :*

Pleader


Hello!

A few days ago I started listening to “Pleader” by the indie, alternative, electronic British band Alt-J. The first seconds of this track are silent and then it starts with a gloomy sound that makes you feel calm. Featuring the London Metropolitan Orchestra, Ely Cathedral boy choristers, police siren samples and voices it creates something that you don’t usually hear anywhere. It’s spooky but it grows into something beautiful and unique making something really enjoyable. I especially like the part when the choir sings “Glorious, the voice of man!” it brings chills down my spine.

As for the tea I’m choosing something refreshing that help you rejuvenate and it’s called Berry Green Machine. This is a blend of: green tea, rose-hips, elderberries, anise seed, hibiscus, dandelion leaf, lemon peel, alfalfa, blackberry leaf, and last but not leas wild berry extract for more flavor. It has cleansing properties, super delicious but not overly strong so you can drink it at almost hour of day.

Someone To You


Hey guys!

I didn’t woke up in a good mood today and I’m trying to change that and because of that I am listening to Banners song “Somebody To You”, an up-beat, up-lifting track with great vocals, drum kicks for my liking and just a sound that I enjoy. This track is supposed to be a confession of love, declaration to a fully commit to a relationship, or the feelings of loneliness and invisibility when the one that you love barely recognizes you exist. I especially like these lyrics: “I'll make the moon shine just for your view/ I'll make the starlight circle the room” because you can feel the love and the things that this person would do for a special someone.

Now for the tea, I’m choosing something fruity and full of aromas, with no caffeine in it. It’s called
Posie's Party Parlor Potion and it’s an infusion made from: apples, hibiscus, elderberry, raspberry, rosehips, cornflowers and sunflower petals, blackberry, strawberry. It’s a simple blend with a divine taste that’s perfect for any occasion.

Come Together


Hey guys!

Today I’m listening to the cover Gary Clark Jr. did for the movie Justice League, “Come Together” by The Beetles. I love the way Gary sings; I like his vocals, husky and rough as they are, and the guitar riffs that are just amazing, and this cover has them all. It’s a bass-heavy, electro-rock combined with blues which is an interesting change from usual Beatles riff. It’s easy to find something to love or to hate over this tune but and let’s hope that overall it will be all in the good pile.

And now for our second part, I’m going to choose the Winterberry tea blend. This is a mix of:  green tea, apple pieces, hibiscus flowers, rose hip peels, lemongrass, orange peel, strawberry pieces, orange slices, natural flavor, and marigold petals. It’s a nice addition for the months to come, a warm welcome when you get home after a long day of work, sweet strawberry with delicate green tea and citrus lemon balanced with hibiscus sounds perfect to me.

Cross My Mind


Hey guys!

Today I found a song that I thought it was about love and everything cute about it but after listening a few more times and reading the lyrics I realized that it’s about how imperfect love is and how easily people change, it’s about past lovers and the impact they have on one’s life. It’s called “Cross My Mind” and it’s by ARIZONA featuring Kiiara. I still like this track because it’s full of great vocals and a sound that seems to infiltrate every part of you.

As for the tea, I’m choosing something different. A green tea with green coffee beans and goji berries, acai cubes, apple, white hibiscus, beetroot. It’s an interesting blend called Green Coffee Beans and it has flavored aroma that you will not be able to forget any time soon. It’s good for your health, enhance you energy levels, improves your blood circulation, boosts your mental function, protects the liver and of course it’s perfect to strengthen your immune system. And now…

You Could Be

Hey you!

Today I am drinking an herbal tea, again from Teavana called Wild Orange Blossom. It’s invigorating and it has a graceful floral hint, it’s full of orange aroma but no so that it will not overpower the blend. It’s a beverage that will warm you to the bone, perfect for cold days, or when you just wanna enjoy life a little more. This tisane has a perfect combination of the following ingredients:  apple pieces, hibiscus flowers, rose hip peels, beetroot pieces, apple slices, orange slices, orange peels, orange juice pieces, orange petals, rose petals.

As for the song, I’m going to share with you an electronic, house, chillout track from R3hab & Khrebto. It’s called “You Could Be” and it’s a sweet and easy tune, with a rhythmic and delightful dynamic and it’s about love, or wanting someone/ a certain someone to be everything. It starts with a filing drum beat that its paired with dazzling piano notes and hypnotic vocals. I especially like the pre-chorus and of course the chorus with: “If you let me show you everything/ I can be your everything/ Will you be my everything?”. These are my choices for today, now…

Dancing In the Daylight


Hello!

Today we are listening to a feel good track coming from the indie band Scouting For Girls. The song is called “Dancing In the Daylight”, is characteristic of the band’s usual sound, full with catchy, repetitive lyrics. It’s not particularly memorable or something that stands out so much but it’s a nice addition whenever it pops on your playlist. It’s an upbeat and feel-good track, perfect for hopeful and sunny days.

And for the tea, I’m going to choose Ruby Spice Cider from Teavana.  It’s a combination of: cinnamon, apple pieces, hibiscus flowers, carob pieces, rooibos, ginger, grapes, chicory root, plum pieces, elderberries, orange peels and pomegranate. It’s a great blend, one that celebrates the seasons with festive colors and an awesome taste. That’s it for today, now…

Run For Cover

‘ello!

Today I’m drinking a maté tea because I needed to change things up and start my day differently, today no more black tea :D. So I searched for a blend that give you energy, it’s refreshing and it has a wonderful aroma that will make your day even better. This tea is called Sierra Sunrise and it’s a mix of: Yerba maté, hibiscus, cinnamon, peppermint, lemongrass, rose-hips, orange peel, holy tulsi trinity (Rama, Krishna & Vana). It has a ruby rose color and the taste is just yummy, and for those of you that want it a bit stronger, just add some tequila :P

Now for the song, I’m going to choose The Killers new single “Run For Cover” from their fifth album “Wonderful Wonderful” that is going to be released on 22th September 2017. This track is full of energy, gets you pumped up (well it got me), and it has that guitar opening that just grabs you right from the start. The way the combine that guitar, drums and synth pads feels new every time even thou they’ve been doing this for a long time. This song is not about surrendering; it’s a good advice, a clever tactic coming from someone with some experience in life. That’s about it for today, now…

Feel Good


Hey guys!

So today I just wanna feel good and this next song is the perfect way to start. It’s called “Feel Good” and it’s by Neon Trees.  It’s not the first track of theirs that I’ve shared with you, so there is no need to talk about them. This song is for that person that makes you happy, the one that in any kind of situation is there for you and helps you thru your loneliness, anxiety and even depression. Plus it has this lyric that I just really love, it’s awkward and it fits perfectly: “Yeah, you were naked in my dream I had last night/ Then things got wet and weird” :))

As for the tea, something fruity with lots of ice really made my day even better. It’s called the Pomegranate Berry Ice and it’s a sweet and refreshing with some spices and a perfect balance of citrus. The blend is a combination of: hibiscus, rose-hip, cinnamon, orange slices and peels, pomegranate, blackberries and red currant.  Plus you can turn this blend into the perfect Sangria just by adding some wine (a Pinot Noir is the perfect choice), apple slices and more oranges.

Sweat / Close Your Eyes


Hey guys!

So today I’m going to talk about The All-American Rejects come back after a 5 year hiatus. They dropped 2 new singles a few weeks ago and since they made the release for them with just one video I am going to talk about them both. The first part is called “Sweat”, and I have to say it’s my favorite. It’s dynamic, energetic, with a lot of drum kicks and guitar riffs. Feels like a traditional track from this band, while “Close Your Eyes” is something different. It’s a ballade that has a gentile sound to it. It’s a representation of what’s to come, the change of their sound and releasing then at the same time really makes you notes the differences. Plus the video feels like a short movie that’s both powerful and stunning.

And now for the tea I’m trying to find something that might make sense for both this different melodies but I think I’ve got it. Something that has green tea might be perfect, it can give you energy and it can invigorate you.  The Green Cherry Love tea is perfect, it’s a combination of: green tea, cranberry, elderberry, hibiscus, pieces of cherry, raspberry, rosebuds and rose petals. Perfect if you just want some energy throughout the day but also if you wanna relax after a day of work.

Water

Hey guys!

I woke up this morning with no energy to get out of my bed and I thought that trying something new might help me out. So the new blend is a herbal one and it’s a mixture of: hibiscus, orange peel, lavender, lemon balm, cloves, licorice root and stevia leaf. It’s called Sweet Nectar and it’s a guilt free beverage for those of us that have a sweet tooth :D. Plus this tisane feels like a warm hug with every sip and it could even replenish your energy.

And for the song, my choice is “Water” by Jack Garratt, an indie, electronic artist from the UK. This track is a slow one, full of electric and acoustic sounds that give a good vibe to it. And one in a while you here that piano playing and it makes everything even better, at least for me. The lyrics are simple and easy to remember and it might even give you a sense of nostalgia. That is it for today, now…


Kisses and Go drink you tea, I’m already drinking mine.

Your Song


Hey you!

So the last couple of days were filled with emotion and I’ve got to say that I found my happiness is someone else’s smile. There was a point yesterday when I was speechless and I realized that I’ve never felt like that for anyone before. And because of that the new single from Rita Ora which I've listened more than 100 times and I still can hear it some more is the perfect choice to express my feelings. The track is called “Your Song” and it’s an upbeat, radio friendly tune, full of positivity and it just gives you a feeling that everything is going right and that’s where your life is right now.  Plus the her voice is on point and the lyrics are beautifully written, and my favorite is: “When I kiss your lips, feel my heartbeat thump”.

Now for the tea, I’m going to choose something that is perfect to help you beat the heat. It’s called a Hot Pink Lemonade, and it’s an herbal tea that gives you a refreshing and it gives to that summer flavor a new and improved update. This blend is made of: apple pieces, lemongrass, candied pineapple pieces, hibiscus, candied papaya pieces, beetroot pieces, vervain, lemon peels, orange blossoms, marigold blossoms. It’s the perfect taste, the perfect color and the perfect way to enjoy summer.

Electric Indigo


Hey guys!

Today I am listening to “Electric Indigo” by the Australian indie-rock band The Paper Kites. It’s a slow track that makes you reflect in your life, it has that certain something that just keeps you relaxed. It’s full of soft noises and it feels like a midnight lullaby. Plus the vocals make me feel like I’m somewhere between a state of dream and the most beautiful dawn I can imagine.

As for the tea… I’m drinking a new blend I created, and I’m going to name it Sweet Red Mate. It has a little bit of: green mate, chamomile, cranberries, hibiscus, bacopa and rose petals. I added just a pinch of sugar & ice and the taste magically transformed on something even better.

My Mistakes Were Made For You

Hey guys!

Today I’m enjoying a rooibos tea with fruits that has a sweet aroma that make you think of perfect summer memories. The name of this tea is Blueberry Bliss and it’s a great combination of: green rooibos, blueberries, raisins, beetroot pieces, hibiscus flowers, rose-hip peels, rooibos and black currants. This is something that is easily enjoyed at any time of day with or without ice.

Because the tea has such wonderful aromas I’m going to pair it up with The Last Shadow Puppets song “My Mistakes Were Made For You”. This is a beautiful song co-written by Alex Turner of Arctic Monkeys and Miles Kane of The Rascals. For me this is quite an amazing song that I really feel dawn to it, with the orchestral instrumental, those interesting lyrics and Alex’s voice that seems to perfectly binds everything together.

You Know It


Today we are starting directly with a surf rock track so we can feel the summer that is supposed to come in less than a month. The song is called “You Know It” by the indie rock band from Nashville Colony House. It’s full of guitar riffs and drums kicking in the best way possible. And it’s almost unmanageable not the get this melody stuck in your head, it even has a “La la la la la” part that will make it even easier to remember.

And for the tea, I’m choosing something that might not give you a lot of energy but instead it will keep you and a Zen mood so you can go with the flow. This tea is a special blend that contains: chamomile, rose-hip, hibiscus, rooibos, blueberries, black currant and cranberries. The name of the tea is Berry Essence and it’s a sweet and full of flavor that seem to be enriched by the chamomile undertones.

S.H.C.

Happy Labor Day!
Well at least for some of you that celebrated it today.



Today’s track is coming from Foster The People and it’s their new single “S.H.C.” short for Sacred Hearts Club. It’s a track fit for the summer that is coming, it’s warm and it has a bubbly electronic touch to its sound. The song has easy and somehow the perfect lyrics that carry you smoothly into the choruses and bridges. Some of them will really stick inside your brain and they might even give you a feeling of joy in life.

As for the tea, I’m thinking that a will relax you and even give you a lot of benefits for your hair, skin, and even your nails health, plus some anti-aging help if you need it. It’s a fruity, fresh blend with a medium amount of caffeine that you can enjoy throughout the day. It’s called the BeauTea Bomb and it’s a mix of:  green tea, rooibos, yerba maté, hibiscus, lemon peel, dandelion leaf, nettle leaf, peppermint, burdock root, marshmallow root & raspberry.

The Noise


Hey guys!

Let’s listen to something with more of a beat, and with more of a rock vibe to it. How about “The Noise” from the indie-rock band Castlecomer? It’s a funky track that makes you wanna dance and have a good time. It’s energetic and with great vocals. Plus the introduction of the song with the strong guitar riff and the drums kicking that build up to the vocals just make this a perfect song.

As for the tea, I’m thinking that Happy Colada, an infusion of fruits might make our day a little better. This bland has a lot going for it, it’s full of aromas and a taste in which you can feel that the summer in coming. So this is a mix of: pineapple and apple bits, hibiscus flowers, rose-hip and orange peel, coconut flakes and freeze-dried sour cherry.

Aftergold


Happy Easter everybody!

How about today we just listen to something that’s fun and makes us dance? I’m thinking that “Aftergold’ form Big Wild featuring the Swedish singer Tove Styrke. It’s an infectious track that just gives you a great feeling whenever you listen to it. It’s happy and with sunny disposition sound to it, and her voice and lyrics just make this track irresistible.  “You want a pilot and a jet plane./ Newsflash: it ain’t worth the pain” that made the song even better for me :d

As for the tea I think that Spring Mix might do the trick and just make the day better. It’s an infusion of flowers and fruits that has a refreshing sweet taste and an aroma that you will never forget. It contains: rose-hip peels, hibiscus, apple pieces, orange and lemon peel, cornflowers, peonies, sunflower petals, melon and raspberry. Give it a try, maybe add some ice if it's too hot outside.
