What to drink?

The other morning when I got to work after a serious early morning sweaty hot yoga class I could not decide how I was going to hydrate myself. I wasn’t thirsty which was a good sign I wasn’t totally dehydrated I just didn’t know what I fancied to drink. The answer? I had one of everything!

My selection was as follows: Voss sparkling water, filtered water with Himalayan sea salt, an Emma & Toms green juice (I didn’t have time to make my own) & a nice cup of hot tea. I kept a round robin going having a sip from each one all morning till I was satisfied. Then is was back onto the herbal tea or plain filtered water for the rest of the day.

Variety is the spice of hydration I think!

Yogi Tea Quartet

It’s so cold at the moment. I know it’s ‘officially freezing’ when I have to scrape ice off my car windscreen even when the sun has come up. What better way to warm up from the inside out than a lovely steaming hot cup of herbal tea? I’ve mentioned many a times before one of my favourite brands is Yogi Tea. Sadly though not being an Australian brand pushes the price up to $8.90, if not more in some shops.

For another reason I found myself on the USA based website iherb recently. To my delight I discovered they stock Yogi Tea for HALF the price it is here. I was already ordering some other products and with a flat rate of $4 (under 1.8kg) for postage I stocked up on tea.

Here’s what I got: Calming, Bedtime, Ginseng Vitality and Women’s Energy.

Yes I know that the two of the left seem very similar to each other as do the two on the right. However they couldn’t taste more different. The calming is great during the day without whacking me out too much. The cinnamon, orange & ginger in the Women’s blend is delicious in the afternoon to keep away the 3pm munchies.

Tea’s up! Love Seren xx
