PG Tips Tea & Florida Crystals Combine to Make Odd Flavor

Posted By on Jan 16, 2009 in Beverage Recipes, English, Organic, Sweets, Tea Recipes | 1 comment

What Does That Mean? Well, I can tell you my story… When I drink black tea, I almost always only drink PG Tips brand, care of my English nanny from when I was a baby.

So, I buy filtered water at a grocery store and make it at home, where I am staying. This past visit to...

I had the opportunity to try Land Shark Lager yesterday, which is apparently affiliated with Jimmy Buffett’s “Margaritaville” brand. On the bottle, it says it’s “Original Island Lager” – and after you take one sip of it, you’ll understand why. It’s a light lager that tastes similar to a combination between a Corona with lime and a Bud Light with a twist of orange. It’s light,...

Going to college or university can be a nerve racking experience. It can be both exciting and terrifying at the same time.

Most of all, she wanted me to be happy...

If you’ve never tried Raw Oysters on the Half Shell, you really are missing out on a delicacy that’s also an aphrodisiac!
