What’s in your cup?

A companion thread to What's on your plate? 

I thought it would fun to share what we’re all drinking. It could be your favourite tea or show of your crowd pleasing cocktail recipes. What’s in your cup?

Right now, I’m enjoying a nice cup of ginger peach tea with milk and honey. It’s nice and calming before bed.

And shout out to the original thread  I kinda found out too late about this and it’s been far too long since it was updated.

The place is literally called “Brown Sugar” I had to have it 

Left Milk Tea with Tapioca w/ Ice :::: Right Pina colada flavored smoothie

They are both so good

[caitbird]

@peculiarzmakeup  yum! They look so refreshing and tasty! Which was your favorite?

[peculiarzmakeup]

I love them both but the pina colada flavor was my favorite because I really love pineapple 🍍 thank you for asking! Do you have a favorite flavor for smoothies? 🙂 @caitbird 

[caitbird]

@peculiarzmakeup  I love pretty much any smoothie, especially fruit smoothies, but if I had to pick I would probably say strawberry or mango are my favorites! Also Panera used to have a super fruit smoothie which was like a mix of multiple berries, which I really loved. But sadly they discontinued it 😭

[peculiarzmakeup]

Aw that’s upsetting have you ever tried smoothie king? Or somewhere else I feel like I just got this burst of “I need to make a smoothie today” even though I never have haha  @caitbird 

[caitbird]

@peculiarzmakeup  no I have never tried smoothie king, but I feel like I should! I can relate, I love smoothies and sometimes you just have a craving (but I am too lazy to make one myself 😅)

[CorgiMommy]

@peculiarzmakeup they both look so refreshing 

[peculiarzmakeup]

They were so good!!! 😊 love the pina coloda one 😍 @CorgiMommy 

[Titian06]

They both sound good, @peculiarzmakeup ! 💖💖💖

[peculiarzmakeup]

They were very good! I love pineapple 🍍 so the pina colada smoothie was a fun treat 🤩 @Titian06

My current “mom-tail” (that’s what I’ve been calling mocktails that double as hydration/electrolytes since getting pregnant/having baby G)… the Organika brand electrolytes & collagen powder mix in wild berry + a diet Ginger Ale. It’s so refreshing in the summer and just the right amount of fizz! I picked the electrolyte powder up on Amazon, but I believe they sell it as Costco as well! I’ve been trying to add collagen supplements into my diet more consistently, so this is an easy way to do it ☺️

[itsfi]

@cianni, you and @Mellmars1185 are selling me on this Organika powder mix. I made  note to do more research on flavors when I get back home. Will look for it on my next Costco run.

[Mellmars1185]

@itsfi @cianni I should mention that the raspberry one is not the one with collagen. It comes in single use packs and a tub.

[caitbird]

@cianni  this sounds both healthy and refreshing! I love the idea of "mom-tails"!

[Mellmars1185]

@cianni YES! This is such a hydrating, healthy treat. I have been drinking the same brand. My favourite is the raspberry. I have not tried the mixed berry one yet. It sounds amazing.

My experience with the cucumber pear was not the greatest. I do not recommend that flavour.

[cianni]

@Mellmars1185 Ooooh the raspberry sounds good too!! I’ll definitely check it out! That’s a shame about the cucumber-lime, it could have made for an interesting drink if it actually tasted good 😅

[Mellmars1185]

@cianni Right? That is what I thought! I always like trying new things. But this flavour tasted off. Maybe I got a bad batch? I have read others had a similar opinion about the flavour. Good thing I only bought the small bag of travel sized ones. I let my husband have them. He has been loving my electrolytes too. I have to hide them now 😅

Today's cup of tea:

Favorite mug rides again! The tea is Masala Chai from Kenya and was a gift from some neighbors I pet sit for. I also added some Chai Spice Honey. It was very good!

[itsfi]

This combo sounds delicious @caitbird! Yaaaaay, your favorite mug is back in action! 🙌 Such a great mug! Your mom did a great job of mending your mug back to life! 👍 Good job, caitbird's mom!

[caitbird]

@itsfi  thank you! Yes, my mom did a great job, I was so happy she was able to fix it! The mug was a gift from my dad and it just suits me perfectly, so I would have been sad to lose it.

[Titian06]

I'm glad your fave mug is back, @caitbird ! 🥳  Masala Chai is my fave, though I haven't tried this one specially.
