31 Days of Tea Reviews

1 October, 2013 by Giselle Rochford 5 Comments

Twice in one day!?!?! Oh Yea! lol

A little background:

#31Days is a link up hosted by Myquillun over at thenester.com. It ‘s basically an online challenge where you have to write a post about the same thing for each of the 31 days in October. I’ve started almost 2 days late because I only found out about it tonight, but I’m pretty stoked to be participating! πŸ˜€

Why tea?

31 Days of TeaWhen I made the transition to healthier eating one of my first bad habits to go was caffeine. Don’t get me wrong, caffeine in itself isn’t a bad thing, the problem was in the ways I got my daily dose. I’d chug sugar filled drinks like coca cola, sprite, iced cappuccinos…the list goes on.
Anyway, one of my friends recommended drinking tea as a replacement and it worked for a while – I successfully kicked my sugar drink habit for about 6 months. Then came summer :S. Needless to say I had a serious relapse and am now once again a caffeine & sugar drink fanatic.

Anyway, 31 Days of Caffeine Withdrawal seemed a little harsh, so the idea for 31 Days of Tea was born. Hopefully it will be my 31 step program to a sugar drink free life πŸ™‚

Wish me luck!

    Ahh! This is so awesome. Don’t hesitate to get your hands on some Buttered Rum tea. If you have access to a David’s Tea shop, try The Skinny — amazing! And remember, drinking tea is not all about taste, it’s about the experience. Be free.

      I’ve never been to David’s Tea but there is one in KW so I can definitely add both those teas to my list! πŸ˜€
      Oh and about the experience…I think I just got a new scoring category! Once I figure out how to rate experience ofc πŸ˜‰

      Thanks again Chantal
