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.
Kisses and Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
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 :*
Today I’m trying to send all my good thoughts and feeling to
a special someone, trying to give them a little courage and because of that the
next song comes in. It’s from the pop-rock band The Score and it’s called “Believe”.
This is not a heavy track; it has a simple beat and beautiful lyrics. I loved
from the first minute because of it slow and easy intro and because that only
at the bridge it started to change and make more of an impact. So in your darkness
hour, day know that I’m always here to cheer you on and I’ll always believe in
you.
As for the tea, I’m choosing something called Let’s Toast,
because it contains caffeine so there will be enough energy to get thru a tough
day. This blend is a mix of: Yerba maté, holy tulsi trinity (Rama, Krishna
& Vana), orange peel, ginger bits, rose-hips, and some orange extract to add more flavor. It’s powerful and beneficial, has the complexity of a black tea,
yet it is quite nimble and easy to drink. I hope you enjoy it and that you won’t
let anything get you down.
Kisses and Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
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.
Kisses and Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
Today I am changing things and I’m going to listen to Taylor
Swift’s new song released yesterday called “Call It What You Want”. I actually
liked this track from the first listen, its gentile, sweet and of course it’s
about love. It’s a nice chance of pace from the last few singles; no wonder its
2# on trending on YouTube. And are is my favorite lyrics “Starry eyes sparking
up my darkest night” and of course "You don't need to save me/ But would
you run away with me?". It’s just a perfect song to enjoy or share with
someone you love.
As for the tea, my choice is easy since I bought a new tea
yesterday. It’s called Orange Peel and it’s a simple blend of black tea, orange
peel and orange aroma. It’s simple but it taste is divine. Energizing, great
aroma, naturally sweet and it contains a moderate amount of coffee so less
jitters for you. That’s it for today; I’ll talk to you next week.
Kisses and Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
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…
Kisses and Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
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…
Kisses and Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
Last work day of this
week and I’m thinking that an indie track, sugary and sweet might be the
perfect choice. It’s called “Television Romance” by the British band Pale Waves
and it’s about being chased by someone you don’t really care of have feelings
for, a television romance. It’s quite infections with those guitar riffs and it’s
a fun track to listen to, it might make you wanna dance a little, but just a
little :D
As for the tea, I’m
choosing a fruity and sugary one so that it will be the perfect pairing for
today’s melody. It’s a perfect blend of: cranberries, cinnamon, apples,
rose hips, cloves, lemon peel, orange peel, calendula flowers and it’s goes by
the name Autumn Fruit & Flowers. It’s spice, sweet and it will create a festival
of aromas with just a sip.
Kisses and Go drink
your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
Today we are feeling a
little emotional and in remembering of my first song and tea posted I’m going
to share with you Zayn new single featuring Sia “Dusk Till Dawn”, and it’s one of the most
perfect love songs, and combination of voices. It’s about two lovers trying to
do everything and willing to do everything to be together with incredible instrumental
and dramatic choruses that make you feel the passion between these artists. I especially
like the part when Sia is firs introduce, she doesn’t steal the show, just
highlight what’s great about this song.
And for the tea, I’m
going to choose a lavender tea, I feel like that feels perfectly with this
tune. Something like a Sweet Lavender which is a combination of: ginger, orange
peel, all-spice, lavender, licorice root, lemon balm, red rosebuds and petals
and a tiny pinch of stevia leaf. Lightly sweeten and fresh from the gardens, it’s
a relaxing, refreshing beverage with a just a little pinch from the spices, it’s
perfect on any occasions and it will leave you wanting more. That’s it for
today, hope you enjoy my choices…
Kisses and Go drink
your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
Today we
are going to listen to a tiny bit of pop coming from Nick Jonas new single “Find
You”. It’s an easy and smooth, just a relaxed release from this artist, it full
of that infectious beat and entrancing guitar riffs, plus his vocals that
brings this tune to a perfect circle. Its about trying to understand the person
you are with, but you can’t, overall just trying to figure that person out. It’s
one of those songs that fit perfect on a slow day or on al log drive.
As for the
tea, I’m choosing a herbal one, a tisane, with lots of benefits for your health, but
mostly because of it’s heavenly taste. It’s called Typ Ayran Mint, and it’s a
blend made from: apple pieces, orange peel, mint, lemongrass, rose hip peel,
wild strawberry leaves, blackberry leaves, basil, lime oil. Fruity, minty and
with a smell that will feel like a mesmerizing embrace. That’s it for today,
now…
Kisses and
Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
Today I woke
up in a great mood and with a craving for chai tea, one of my own blends of
course. It’s simple, sweet and it
will fill you with a lot of energy to get thru the day so you can start your
weekend. It contains: black tea,
cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cacao powder, chocolate bits, pink peppercorns, orange
peel and cloves. I call it Chai For You because this blend was made for someone
special :D
And now the
song … I just heard the new single from Fall Out Boy and I’ve got to say I really
like it. I’m talking about “The Last Of The Real Ones” and it’s about loving
someone because of all their imperfections and not in spite of them, and that
to me is real love. It’s energetic, keeps your body moving, it has a great beat
to it and the lyrics are extremely sweet. I especially like this ones “You are the sun
and I am just the planets/ Spinning around you” and “I will shield you from the waves/ If they find
you/ I will protect you”. Aren’t they lovely? I think so, now….
Kisses and
Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
Today I’m
going to keep it short and start directly with the song. It comes from the
indie, pop, alternative artist St. Vincent, a pseudonym of Annie Clark,
and it’s a sweet and mellow track called “New York”. Her vocal are amazing and
they seem to emerge you in its sound; and apparently according to the artist “It’s
my whole life in a song”. You might not
enjoy it form the start like I did but it’s still a great melody to at least
give it a listen.
And now for
the tea, I’m choosing Fall For Chai because autumn is already here. It’s a
combination of: black tea, cinnamon, cardamom, licorice root, coriander seed
and orange peel. This tea will wrap you up in a well-deserved embrace with all its
flavors and aromas. Plus it’s a perfect morning of afternoon teas especially
for the days when you can’t open your eyes to see the beauty of this world.
Kisses and Go
drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
Sorry for
the wait, I’ve been on a well-deserved vacation. I saw my family, went to da
wedding, and I spent some time with people I care. Because I’ve been gone for a
while, and I’m sure that you’ve missed me so I’m going to start with a tea that
will give you energy and a song that will surly put a smile on someone’s face.
The tea is
a perfect combination of black and green tea with lemongrass, orange peel,
grapefruit, pomelo, pieces ginger and peppercorns. It’s refreshing, full of
energy and it has a taste that you will remember. It will boost your immune system,
it’s rich in vitamin C, helps you lose weight, it’s a great antibacterial and
it has a lot of antioxidants. It’s a perfect tea to enjoy at almost any hour of
the day, by that I mean don’t drink it after 6 PM, you might have problem sleeping
if you do. I forgot to say, I've named this tea Citrus Energy.
And now for
the song, my choice comes from Gabrielle Aplin. I know I’ve shared with you
another song of hers and it was amazing to (at least that’s what I think), this
one is about love as well. It’s called “Waking Up Slow” and it’s indie, pop-ish
track that makes me feel really good. The lyrics speak of realizing that you
love some you only saw as a friend before. The lyric are sweet and gives you
that feeling of joy. My favorite part it’s in the chorus, when she sings: “All
my nights/ Taste like gold/ Yeah, when I'm with you/ It's like everything glows”.
That is it for today, I’m coming back tomorrow with something new to share with
you.
Kisses and
Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
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…
Kisses and
Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
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.
Kisses and
Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
So today I feel
like we should show the feminists in us and “rage” against the man. And because of that I have the perfect song “Seashore”,
coming from the American punk rock band The Regrettes. This track is for
everyone that ever put down a woman just because of her gender or because they
think someone is somehow inferior. Plus it has a nice vibe that gives you a bit
of energy and I’ve got to say I love that guitar riff and drum kicks, not to
loud but just enough to get the blood pumping.
And go watch the video for this
track, it’s funny and powerful and it might make your day.
Now for the
tea, my choice is going to be for us women, specially made of us. It’s called Women's
Activity Tea Ayurvedic and it’s a special blend made from: orange peel,
cinnamon, ginger, angelica root, dandelion root, cloves, juniper berries. This
tea is used to combat stress, builds stamina and provides a natural sustainable
energy. It has a full body aroma and a pleasant taste to go with all of those
benefits.
Kisses and
Go drink you tea, I’m already drinking mine.
Today we
are listening to some pop music coming from Charli XCX, I’m talking about her
single “Boys”. This is a fun and easy song full of good vocal over a glitching
video game bleeps. This song feels like something you listen to when it’s too
hot outside and you feel like doing nothing, it’s simple, not too energetic,
and it gives you a good vibe. Sorry girls but she is busy, she can’t answer
that phone, she is thinking about boys. And seeing the new video for this track
there is no wonder why.
As for the
tea, I’m thinking that something full of ice and fruity might be the perfect
combination. So a combination of: blood orange, lemon, cranberries,
blueberries, black currant & lemongrass, cornflowers, rose petals and just
a bit of mint might just do the trick. I call this blend Heat Slayer. It’s perfect
at any time of day, it’s full of antioxidants and it can be enjoyed either hot
or cold, depending on your mood.
Kisses and
Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
So today I am
listening to “Outside” by Tender, an indie, electronic duo from London. This track
has a dark, R&B, electronic infuse groove that wraps you up into its
mid-tempo, deep bass lines full of harmonies and haunting sounds. The lyrics
are full of vulnerability, and that alluring rawness that hide an overwhelming emotion
within those sweet sounds.
As for the
tea my choice is going to be the Peppermint/Lemon tisane. It has a blend of: peppermint,
lemongrass, carrot flakes, licorice root, orange peel, rose-hip and lemon. It’s
full of aromas, it’s sweet but also refreshing and it’s also a good help when
you feel a little down of you lost all your energy. Let's not forget, you can easily turn this tea into the perfect summer beverage just by adding a little ice and maybe a little sugar or honey.
Kisses and
Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
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.
Today I am listening
to Nothing More’s new single “Go To War”, I’ve heard this song a few weeks when
it came out but today feels like the perfect choice. I needed something more
energetic to put me on my feet and this was it. It’s a powerful
rock track that showcases the lead singer’s vocal range and it’s full of beats
and kicks that just get me going. The song
is about “how we circle the problem, unknowingly spinning the web tighter” and that’s
what the vocalist Jonny Hawkins says.
And now for
the tea, I’m going to choose something that will pump me up full of energy. I think
that the Orange Spice might do just want I need. It’s an amazing blend composed
of: black tea, orange and cinnamon. It’s
naturally sweet and the cinnamon rounds up that taste, and with just a little
bit of milk it will remind you of a chai tea. Hot or with some ice this tea is
a perfect beverage to enjoy if you need a little shove out the door.
Kisses and
Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
