Who Are You

Hey guys!

Guess who caught a cold? That’s right, me :|. And because of that today’s tea it’s going to be something that will bring lots of benefits for my health. It’s a blend I created after I researched the aids of all of the ingredients.  I call it Light Bringer and it’s made from:  white tea which destroys pathogenic bacteria in your body, lemongrass serve as antiviral sore-throat calmer, elder flower reduces inflammation in mucous membranes, peppermint help relieve congestion and encourage productive coughs, and ginger aids chest and nasal congestion. It’s just 5 ingredients that will help you when you feel a cold coming, or when it’s already there.

As for the song, I’m choosing something slow and calming from the English duo Aquilo. The track is called “Who Are You” and it has an ambient sound that fills the silence around you with a beautiful piano playing, an amazing falsetto from Tom Higham and the pair’s captivating harmonies which seam come together effortlessly. It’s a perfect melody for rainy, cold days when you just wanna let the troubles of the world melt away.

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.

24/7

Hey you!

Today I choose a very simple blend containing just green and white tea. This tea is called Twilight or Fusion Green and White Tea and it’s one of the most unique and rare, expensive types of tea because of the quality of the green and white tea. It has a delicate and smooth taste and you will find yourself looking at a pale gold color in the cup. It’s simple and yet with a lot of power and magic for a beverage.

As for the song, I’m choosing something The Neighbourhood’s new album “Hard”. The one I enjoy the most because it’s has a 80’s vibe, it’s catchier, happier and upbeat track and it’s called “24/7”. It’s an enchanting tune that’s about time, the way people worry about time and if you just slow down and enjoy life he will be there for you. It’s easy to love this song because from the start you get the feeling about the band.

I Only Lie When I Love You

Hey guys!

“I Only Lie When I Love You” is the song we are listening today, from the English alternative rock, garage rock band Royal Blood. It’s a modern blues with a lot of drum kicks and guitar riffs, but there are not that heavy, they just get you pumped up and ready to take in the world. This track is a nod to The White Stripes with its video and the persistent drumming and the distorted riffs. It’s a track that feels similar from the first listen and it stays with you because is quite addicting and extremely enjoyable.  

Now for the tea, I’m choosing something mostly cause of its name. This new tea is called Burn Baby Burn and it’s an amazing blend of: green and white tea, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, coconut flakes, dandelions and black pepper to enhance the turmeric.  It’s a kickass anti-inflammatory with metabolism boosting & fat scorching ingredients (disintegrates that fat & inflammation). So today it’s time to wake up and feel the burn.

Heavenward

Hey guys!

I woke up this morning with a craving for something refreshing and not to energetic, so a thought that a Butterscotch tea might be the perfect choice. It’s an amazing blend of: white tea, cinnamon, pink peppercorns & marigold flowers. Very delicate, a bit on the peppery side, not very sweet, just rich notes of butterscotch, just a guilt-free drink for those in need, like me :D. And after just one sip you will definitely want some more.

Now… for our second part, I’m going with an indie, alternative, rock band from the UK, called Wolf Alice and their new single “Heavenward”. This tune fits perfect in the shoegazeing genera is echoey, ghostly and gorgeous.  It’s a dreamy, melodic track, full of inharmonious, but pleasing guitars, which take you on a mysterious journey, especially with her divine voice.

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

Miles

Hey you!

I’m going to tell you a secret, today feels like a good day. I think we can accomplish a lot today if we put our self’s to work. And because of that I’m sharing with you a song by the rock, folk, American Idol winner Phillip Phillips. The song is called “Miles” and it’s a sweet and soothing ballad, full of emotions that give me good energy. This song has more rock vibe, even pop but less folk, especially with those drums kicking before the chorus. And these are my favorite lyrics: “If you follow me in this mystery/ We could swim inside these crowds”.

And now for the tea, my choice is a new blend I’ve created which I’ve named White Flowers. It’s a mix of: white tea, sunflowers, cornflowers, rose petals, goji berries and just a pinch of raspberries. It’s refreshing, with a touch of caffeine and with a perfectly scented aroma of flowers. You can enjoy it at almost any time of day and it has benefits for your skin, hair and nails, plus a lot more but these felt like the most important.

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

Sight To The Blind

Hey guys!

Today we are going to listen to a new post-rock track that I’ve found. It’s called “Sight To The Blind” and it’s by the Canadian band Inward Oceans. This is a sweet and soft piano melody that gives you an sense of calm; it really relaxes me and makes me less anxious about life and all the problems in it. This tune is one of those ones that makes you appreciate the little things in the world and it’s easy to fall in love with it and you can listen to it for hours without getting bored.

As for the tea, I’m thinking that a white tea might be a nice paring for this perfect melody and I think I have the perfect one. I call it White Garden and the blend is a combination of this ingredients: peony flowers, rose petals, blackberries, raspberries, rhubarb and of course white tea. Smooth and relaxing with a full body aroma that is to die for, what else could you want in life!?!

Something In The Way You Move

Hey you!

So I’ve got to say that the past few day have been great, I feel really lucky especially when it comes to the people in my life. And because of that when I rediscovered Ellie Goulding’s song “Something In The Way You Move” it made a lot of sense and I really started loving this track. It’s carefree, upbeat, and it has that pop sound that gets stuck in your head easily. Plus her voice is still amazing and she gives as a lot of hooks and repetitive lyrics so we can sing along with her.

And now for the tea, my choice is (drum roll) The Wedding Cake tea. This is an extremlly beautiful combination of: white tea, green tea, lavender, blue cornflowers and calendula petals & heather flowers. It’s just the perfect blend of refreshing and sweet with a touch of serenity that gets all the tension out of your body. That about it for today, now…

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

Beautiful Ones

Hey guys!

Today we have a track that celebrates individuality of everybody in this world. It’s an empowering song that speaks of acceptance and spreading the love and it come in the form of Hurts new single “Beautiful Ones”. The lyrics seem to give hope to anyone how doesn’t fit in the social norm with lines like “don’t be afraid, honey one day, this will fade”. Plus the video is a colorful celebration of gender fluidity and the harsh rode of hate and brutality that sometimes go hand in hand.

For the tea I’m choosing something that you can enjoy at any hour of the day and it can relax you and just make you feel better. It’s called Bird of Paradise and it’s a blend that contains: green tea, papaya flakes, orange slices, white tea & rose petals. Simple, fruity, full of aromas and with lots of benefits.

Mr. Doctor Man

Hey guys!

Today I’m drinking a white tea that it’s best with ice and in warm weather. It’s called White Raspberry Ice and it’s a combination of: white tea, raspberry, cloves and cinnamon. It’s a delicious beverage, low on caffeine and full of antioxidants and fragrances that will surprise you. It’s sweet, spice and you can never go wrong by drinking it, hot or on ice.

As for the song I’m listening to Mr. Doctor Man by the Canadian alternative rock band Palaye Royale. It’s a catchy song and it’s all you could need from a rock song. The drum kicks, guitar riffs, bass solos, it's just incredible. Plus the raspy vocals of the lead singer make this song easy to remember. I was pleasantly surprised by this band’s sound and the energizing feeling that just wrap me up every time I listen to the song.

The Cure

Hey you!

So Lady Gaga has a new single out and I’ve got to say I love it. The track is called “The Cure”  and it’s a more EDM and sound a lot more like the other pop song that are filling the music charts. That isn’t necessarily bad, that just means she is a really good artist and she can do anything :D.  Plus this song is about the unconditional love you can have for someone and the lyrics are quite great; “I’ll fix you with my love” is forever stuck in my head.  

And for the tea, it’s going to be really simple. I’m choosing the Red, Green & White tea cause I can choose between the white tea, green tea and rooibos so I’m choosing a blend made just with just them. It combines the colorful taste of the rooibos tea with the fresh flavor of green tea and the smooth charm of white tea. It’s simple and the taste is marvelous.

Wild Love

Hey you!

Today I was browsing thru YouTube and I came across this collaboration between Kendall Jenner & Elle King for Estee Lauder’s New Pure Color Love Lipstick ad. This video has a great concept and it made me love this song immediately. It’s catchy and fun with easy lyrics and Elle’s raspy vocals just make the song better. The song is called “Wild Love” and I’ve got to say: it made my day. Plus in the ad Elle says to Kendall “you’ve got enough going on”; that just really made me laugh.

I’m going to put Elle’s song below in case you don’t wanna watch the ad.

As for the tea, I’m choosing a white one cause for the last couple of days that’s what I seem to be drinking. This one is called the Raspberry/Gojiberry/Bergamot tea and it’s an infusion of: white tea, goji berries, currants, Curaçao orange peel, blackberry leaves, rose petals, acacia, pomegranate and mallow flowers, raspberry pieces. It’s sweet, fruity and all together a great beverage at any time of the day.

River

Hello!

So I just found this song and I got to say I’m in love with it. It’s called “River” and it’s by Oh, Be Clever an alternative, indie, electronic duo from Utah. This track is about accepting your imperfections and existing happily with them. At least that is my meaning; you can always find different senses that help you in your state of mine. “Lay me down in the river/ Love me like I'm a sinner” this is what I’m going to sing all day, I can feel it :D

As for the tea I’m choosing a white one cause I feel like I haven’t given you many choices of it when you are craving some. This one is called Lace and it’s a pretty simple blend. Its combination of: white tea, white chocolate bites and a little peppermint, for all of us that like it. It has a heavenly taste and it will make you feel all the aromas in it.

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

Cloud 9

Hey guys!

Today I’m in the mood for some white tea, something more sweet than usual. How about the Tamarind / Caramel tea? It's a combination of: white tea, caramel cubes, pepper, red & white immortelles. And for those of you that like almonds you can add some roasted ones, it will make the difference. Plus it has a unique aroma that might resonate with some of you.

Now for the song I’ve been kind of obsessed with Jamiroquai new single “Cloud 9” ever since it was released 3 days ago. It’s funky, it has a disco vibe to it and it certainly has a familiar feel to it. This track definitely puts me in a good mood not just because of the sound but the lyrics too. The ones I love the most have to: “I look up to Heaven, every star I see is mine./ Only a fool could walk away from me this time”. It’s that kind of a song that when you hear it play on the radio you’ll just crank it up to feel all the beats.

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

Never Again

Hey guys!

So I was thinking that today will start by drinking a white tea, and one of my favorites. It’s blend of white tea, pomegranate, hibiscus and lemongrass. It’s a light creation of flavors that make a gentile pick-me-up. It’s a delicious combination that will give a bit of energy to carry thou the day. As for the name it’s very simple. It’s called Pomegranate White Tea :D

Now since pomegranate means rebirth I think that the song “Never Again” by Breaking Benjamin it’s the ideal choice, especially since that is what this track speaks about. I have to say, I missed listening to this post-grunge band and now that they have a new album it’s going to be hard not to reminisce about a different time in my life, but “Never again/ Time will not take the life from me”. It’s a: been there, done that track. Maybe you will enjoy it as much as I do.

Take Me Over

Hey guys!

A few hours ago I found this song and it took me over. It’s from the band Red, a Christian rock, alternative, hard rock band from Nashville, Tennessee. I think this track is supposed to be a prayer or a plea for redemption. But I anyone how listens to this tune will find its own meaning.  I enjoy the melody, those fast drum kicks, guitar riff and the lyrics are quite catchy. It’s called “Take Me Over” and I find this song to be more romantic than anything else.

Now for the tea, my choice is Angel Tears. It’s a blend of: green tea (Liu An Gua Pian) and white tea (Pai Mu Tan) , red pepper corns and pineapple bits. This tea has a sweet taste, it’s invigorating and it will help with the energy levels for the entire day. 

Kisses and Go drink your tea, I'm already drinking mine.

Empire

‘ello!

I just found this song by Of Monsters And Men, an indie, folk band from Iceland. This track is called “Empire” and it’s quite the melodic and stunning. It has some beautiful lyrics that are more poetic and it can have a few interpretations.  But it sounds truly good and it’s catchy. They brought the images of land and weather to this melody that can signify a lot of things. Like the rain which often symbolizes bad things that can turn out for the better. Find you own meaning in this song, see what sticks with you.

I think this track would pair up nice with a white tea, one with some fruits even. How about a White Cherry tea? It’s a blend of: white tea, cherries, coconut flakes, rosebuds and a little jasmine. This will bring lots of flavor to your life and benefits. Like: boosting your metabolism, strengthens the immune system and has antibacterial and antiviral effects.

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

Livewire

Hey you!

Feels like a good day, right? And because of that I’m choosing a song that is slow, mellow and has a beautiful melody full of harmonies that just go together. I’m talking about “Livewire” by Oh Wonder, an indie band from London. This track has a minimal piano playing from beginning to end, light vocals and a delicate atmosphere that seem to balance the melody and not overpower the lyrics. Give it a try. You might fall in love all over again just by listening to this song and thinking about your special someone. I did :D

Because this song is so powerful but gentle, I think that we should pair it with something that will give you a calm and relaxing mood. How about a Passion Flower tea? It’s a mix of: white tea, passion flower, mango, honey bush, blackberry leaf, and lemon. It’s a vibrant, mood boosting tea full of aromas.

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

Hallelujah

Hey guys!

Today I was searching for some new music to talk about and I kinda failed. Just because it’s an old song how got a cover that sends chills down my spine from the firs second they start singing. I’m talking about Pentatonix’s version of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah”. It’s not a sad song, or a depressing track, it’s just an amazing, atmospheric and calming tune full of great vocals from this a cappella group. Give it a try it might live you speechless.

For the tea I’m choosing one not just by name but for all the ingredients that are in it. A Divine Temple tea, which is a mix of: white tea, green tea (Darjeeling, sencha and gunpowder), Jasmine, mango bits, pineapple bits, papaya bits, orange peels, strawberry bits, red currants, sour cherry bits, apricot bits & sugar. It has a lot of flavors in it, will give you a boost of energy and a clear mind. It taste heavenly and it will pair nice with the song.

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

My Demons

Hey guys!

Let’s dive right in today and let’s start with the song. At this moment I’m listening to “My Demons” by Starset, an alternative/rock, we can call this genre space rock, from Ohio. This track has a catchy chorus and it feels like a good melody, not over the top or overwhelming. “Take me high and I’ll sing/ Oh you make everything ok” how doesn’t want someone to save us but guys let’s be pragmatics, sometimes we just have to confront what’s going on and take control of our lives.

For the tea I’m going to choose something that has white tea because it has caffeine in it enough to give you energy for the day but not so much that will keep you awake. I’m thinking that White Cinnamon Sage will do the trick. It’s a combination of white tea, cinnamon and some wisps of sage. Enjoy!
