Stash Premium Lemon Ginger Herbal Tea

-



I wake up a lot during the night. It's not fun. I was thinking that maybe if I drank less caffeine in the evening that would help. It also helps if your digestive system is working properly. A cup of hot herbal tea can often do the trick.

My mother-in-law just left from a recent visit and she was touting the benefits of ginger tea.

So, here I am at the beginning of my journey to find - you guessed it - the best ginger teas.

First up, Stash (TM) Premium Lemon Ginger Herbal Tea (Caffeine Free). 20 tea bags retail for about 3.99.

While the lemon jumps out at you, the ginger sneaks up on you.

Halfway through the cup, it started to tickle my tongue. That's not a bad thing. It was just unexpected.

I only steeped my bag for about three minutes - for stronger flavor, you should probably steep for five minutes.

But beware, if the ginger tickled my tongue with a three minute steep, you might end up laughing yourself to sleep if you steep for five.

And guess what. . .I think it's working because I'm starting to get sleeeeeeepy.

It's Not Your Mother's Eight O'Clock Coffee - Columbia Single Serve Cup

You may not have noticed, but Eight O'Clock Coffee (which I used to refer to as Eight O'Clock Bean Coffee) has experienced a new attitude. There's new packaging and now there is even an Eight O'Clock K-Cup(R). I enjoy and delight in experiencing artisan roasted coffee and I can ride the "third wave" as good as the next person, but sometimes I just want to remember the way things used to be. So, the Eight O'Clock K-Cup  is the perfect way to enjoy a coffee that's always had a special place in my heart - but with a new twist. All these new single-serve coffees are making me lazy. But, don't worry, I'm an equal opportunity coffee-lover. Here's to the weekend!

All Time Favorite Coffee Jingles

I have consumed a lot of coffee over the last couple of decades, but it's mainly through "trial and error," "word of mouth," or "pure luck," that I found those I've enjoyed the most. And, of course, the folks who reach out and let me know about the great coffees that are out there. But with micro roasters becoming more and more popular, and grocery store coffee being talked about less, even though many supermarket varieties are very good, I can't help but remember some of those jingles and television commercials that remain etched in my mind. Some of my favorite coffee jingles: "Good to the Last Drop" (TM) (Maxwell House) "Richness Worth A Second Cup" (TM) (Yuban) "The Best Part of Waking Up, Is Folgers In Your Cup" (TM) And, last but not least, drumroll. . . .my all-time favorite: "Fill It To the Rim With Brim" (TM) (Brim Decaffeinated Coffee) (special thanks to my sister for remin...
