Tea Glorious Tea.

Im a big tea drinker and like nothing better than curling up on the sofa with a milky brew. Sometimes i like to try different teas as herbal and fruit teas are free on Slimming World and im sometimes worried about going over my milk allowance as i like my milky tea milky.
Here is the top 5 herbal or fruit teas i like to drink.

Twinings Camomile and Spiced Apple.

This tea is best drunk on an evening as Camomile tends to send me to sleep as it is a very relaxing tea. I enjoy drinking Camomile by itself but this tea adds a little something extra to the flavour.

Twinings Pure Peppermint.

This tea is best drunk after a meal as it helps your food digest easier. Iv heard it may help you lose weight due to digesting your food easier and not having water retention but don't quote me on that.

Tetley Redbush.

This tea has a flavour of black tea but is caffeine free and has lots of antioxidants so it is much better for you. You can drink this tea with milk and sugar or by itself.

Marks and Spencer Christmas tea.

Obviously this is the tea you should be drinking this season. With warming spices and fruity citrus flavours this tea tastes of Christmas and is a lovely drink to get you in the spirit.

Twinings Echinacea and Raspberry.

This tea has a lovely strong fruity taste and is great to drink anytime of the day. Echinacea is said to help colds at the first signs, so if you feel like your getting a winter cold drink lots of this tea.

Step Into Christmas.

Okayyyy i know it's still a while until Christmas BUT it is in 6 WEEKS TIME, which means we only have 6 weeks until its all over and done with. Im a real Christmas lover, always have been, always will be. So i thought i would do a little piece about my favourite Christmassy bits and bobs out at the moment.
Right now to get me in the mood im listening to Smooth Radio Chritmas which can be found here: http://www.smoothradio.co.uk/about/smooth-radio-christmas/be1ac playing Christmas favourites 24/7.

My Christmas is usually centered around food as i think most peoples are. So here's a few festive favourites of mine.

Im vegetarian so i usually make my own Nut Roast for Christmas dinner, but i think im going to be working Chritmas Eve this year (which im really not happy about!) so im going to buy my nut roast in this year. Pictured is the M&S Brazil Nut Roast with Mulled Wine Topping, which is £6.99 and has to be ordered for pick up on 22nd through to 24th December. The annoying thing is they only give you a one hour window to pick it up in but if im not in or working il bribe my sister into going for me!

Sorry about the picture on this one. I took it in a bit of rush, anyway this is Morrisons Luxury Marzipan Mince Pie, Usually £4.99 but i got it reduced for £1.25. Im sure everyone will agree, Mince Pies ARE Christmas. You can't beat watching a warming Christmas film whilst eating a mince pie and drinking a milky brew or a cheeky glass of baileys (more on Baileys later). My mum loves eating iced mince pies, im more of a deep filled shortcrust kinda gal. However you like your mince pies im sure you will love this much bigger version.

Let it snow has just started playing on the radio :) i love the fuzzy feeling you get from the classics.

Baileys has to be the ultimate Christmas drink for me. Its creamy and warming and the perfect drink to leave for Santa on Christmas Eve. My nanna is a big Baileys drinker but wont buy it unless its on offer (which is uaully around Christmas) and she then stocks up for the whole year. I have tried all the flavours so far and recently got a sample of the new Biscotti flavour which i have yet to open. I really like the Hazlenut and Coffee flavours but you cant beat the original. 1 Litre bottle around £20 at supermarkets nationwide (or wait until december and they will be selling for £10).

Im 21 but that doesn't stop me having an advent calendar every year. Me and my sister usually spend all of November deciding on which design we want. Pictured above is a Cadbury calendar priced at £2.99 which is probably the one which will be hanging from my wall this year. I also love the Milkybar design along with the classic M&S design (pictured below) i still have 16 days to decide but not sure yet. I love them all. Does anyone else still get an advent calendar over the age of 12?

This Christmas is now playing. I love this song whether it be Christina Aguilera, Chris Brown or Donny Hathaway.

Well this has definitely got me in the mood, what about you?
