REVIEW - PG Tips Strawberry Cupcake

As dull as it may seem, tea is my number 1 beverage. Sure, I like others, but they can't compare to a well-made cuppa. I love tea so much that I own more mugs than I care to count (mainly because people are always buying them for me) and have been known to come home from nightclubs and have a cup of tea before going to bed. I am a wild 20-something, I know.

If I could, I would drink breakfast tea (or Earl Grey, mmm) day, noon and night. However in a bid to cut down on a bit of caffeine I've been drinking a lot more green tea as of late. I get a bit bored of plain green tea so am always on the lookout for something new and flavoured teas are fast becoming a firm favourite.

I thought I'd give this new Strawberry Cupcake tea from PG Tips a try - I like berry-flavoured teas, and baking is a huge passion of mine, so it seemed perfect! I picked up my box of 25 bags for £1 (it was on promotion) in my local Tesco.

REVIEW - Twining's Earl Grey Green Tea

It's only the 6th day of January and yet I'm already suitably fed up with the daily headlines and articles telling us all about how we can 'eat clean, lose weight, get fit and shed those festive pounds!'. Don't get me wrong, I wholeheartedly support the idea that we should all be eating more veggies, having fewer processed foods and doing more exercise to improve our health (both physical and mental), but the barrage of information that we're subjected to every year after Christmas is a little overbearing and it doesn't do much to blow away the January blues.

Still, if you are feeling like making a few changes to your diet and lifestyle this month, then drinking more fluids (not alcoholic or sugary!) is a good way to go. This is something I'm trying to do myself - I'm generally really good with drinking water in the mornings and the evenings but seem to completely forget during the daytime. It's safe to say that water is pretty bland and boring (hence why I'm so disinclined to get myself a glass) so I do try and drink green tea to keep myself hydrated.

Green... Earl Grey?
