GT: Favorite Drink

I am a certified coffee lover. If you are going to ask me what my favorite drink is in the whole world it would be coffee . Kahit instant or brewed, basta kape. Kahit imported o barako pa. I drink coffee when I wake up and at around 9pm to keep me awake. I also love cold coffee and ice blended coffees. I enjoy black coffees after meals when I eat out. I think coffee has replaced the blood running thru my veins.

Next to coffee, I love drinking yakult poured over ice. Nothing beats ice cold yakult on a sunny day .

I'm excited to know what your fave drinks are....

A.N.T.S. Canefusion

May kalaban an ang Cane Twist sa third floor ng main building ng SM.

I don't know if this is slowly becoming a trend pero dumarami na ang nagtitinda ng Sugarcane Juice.Mas mahal ng P5 ang price nila per glass than Cane Twist.

This one,also offers freshly squeezed sugarcane juice pero yung sugarcane na ginagamit nila parang hindi pa hinog para i-juice.They also offer to infuse your juice with flavor for an additional price.

I was wanting to buy the frozen sugarcane pero hindi pa sya frozen. Siguro kasi madaming tao nung Mother's Day kaya ganun,so I ended up buying two of the bottled ones para iuwi. They cost P40 each, very affordable than Mann Hann's which is P160 (na peborit ni mudra). Nagustuhan naman ni mudrabelles tsaka masarap sya in comparison sa Cane Twist. I just don't know kung masarap din yung nasa glass nila.

IceBreaker's Scramble

Kung merong isang inumin na pinoy na pinoy ito ay ang Iskrambol. Ang Iskrambol, ice crumble o scramble ay isang isang malamig at matamis na inumin na karaniwan ay kulay pink. Gawa ito sa kinaskas na yelo, vanilla o anumang flavoring at pangkulay.Nilalagyan ito ng chocolate syrup, na tinimpla lang ng tindero at Klim o powdered milk sa ibabaw at minsan pa nga ay may gulaman. Madalas itong makikita sa mga palengke o tapat ng iskwelahan na karaniwan ay nakasakay sa kariton na tulak-tulak ng tindero.

Noong isang araw ay nakita ko na meron na palang booth ng iskrambol sa maliit na mall dito sa amin.Sosyal itong iskrambol na ito at malinis tingnan.At dahil nga sa mahilig ako sa iskrambol bata pa lang ako, syempre may-I-buy ang lola nyo.

 Small Scramble (P7.00)

Cute na cute at hindi dugyot tingnan ang iskrambol na ito. Kulay pink pa rin at may klim sa ibabaw ngunit sa halip na choco syrup ay sugar syrup na pink at violet ang topping. Ang taray ano?

At sa halagang P2 -P4 ay pwede ng magpa-xtra topping kagaya ng rice crispies, marshmallows at syempre Klim. Si ate,bumili ng large na iskrambol with 2 xtra klim..hahaha.Na-miss nya yata ito.

Nag-aabang ako ng iskrambol kalye kahapon pero wala akong nakita.Di bale, tsaka ko na ipapakita kapag may nagdaan dito.

 Ito ang lahok ko para sa na may temang: Shades of Spring and Summer.

Ito ang isa sa mga summer drink ng pinoy...



Ice Breaker Scramble has branches in Victory Mall,Caloocan and Malabon City Square.

Soy Yummy

Sino ba ang hindi mahilig sa taho? Eh lahat yata ng bata bumibili sa magtataho tuwing umaga kapag nagdadaan sila. Bukod kasi sa masarap ay masustansya ito pero yung ibang magulang ayaw nila na pinapakain ng street taho yung mga anak nila.Kesyo madumi daw, ganito, ganyan.. Well, totoo naman...yung ibang mga gawaan ng tao marurumi pero hindi lahat.

If you really want clean taho and soymilk,pwede ka bumili sa mall. May choice ka pa na mag-order ng chocolate flavor na soymilk at chilled taho.

My sister who calls herself Anney and I love taho so much! Kaya lang di sya umiinom ng soymilk,ayaw nya daw ng lasa.


This is Chilled taho for P25. Eaten while waiting for our orders from Greenwich to arrive.

Fruitini

Ykaie is currently loving Del Monte's Fruitini Juice Drink. I think it's pretty healthy considering it's a mixture of fruit juice and veggie juice compared to other packed juices in the market. I took a sip from each one and they actually taste pretty good.

 

It's available in three different flavors: Orange Carrot + Mixed Fruits, Brocolli + Mixed fruits and Purple Carrot + Mixed fruits.

Happy RT!

Acuatico Beach Resort

Noong naghahanap pa lang kami ng beach resort na mapupuntahan sa Batangas ay nakita namin ang website ng Acuatico. Bagong gawa ang resort na ito at bonggang-bongga ang itsura.At naku,bonggang-bongga rin ang presyo. Isa ito sa mga high-end resort na meron sa Batangas. At dahil nga low-budget kami ay sabi namin next time na lang kami pupunta dito,mag-iipon muna kami..hahaha
(Nag-try si sis mag-inquire dahil may dadating syang friend from US na gusto nyang ipasyal pero fully booked na)

Pero ang kapalaran ay mabait,mwahahaha..Tingnan mo nga naman at next door neighbor lang ng Tivona ang Acuatico.

Sa kagustuhang makita ng personal at maki-usyoso na rin, go kami sa restaurant ng Acuatico.

Halo-Halo (P150)

I ordered Halo-Halo. O diba? bonggang-bongga ang presentation pati na ang presyo pero di ko masyadong na-enjoy ang lasa.

Mojito (P220)

Si peanutbutter♥ naman ay nag- Mojito pero sabi nya ay hindi daw yun ang lasa ng Mojito na hanap nya.

Pose muna bago mag-halo-halo..hehehe

With the infinity pool as our background. Hay, lurky ang lola nyo at gusto ko ng lumipat dito. Isipin nyo may mga active lifeguards pa by the pool. At may playroom pa for the kids. Lahat na yata ng comfort at kasosyalan ay nandito.

Hayan, family picture para naman masulit ang ibinili ng halo-halo at Mojito...haha

Sosyal ang kape ko ngayong umaga...

May nagbigay lang sa amin nito.Super convenient.
Instant na "brewed"/drip coffee..

Isabit lang sa magkabilang gilid ng iyong cup at padaanan ng mainit na tubig...

O diba?? di na kailangan ng coffee maker?

Sugar Cane Juice

Kapag napupunta o napapadaan ako sa Ongpin ay hindi pwedeng hindi ako bibili ng Sugarcane Juice. Parang naging tradisyon ko na ito dahil dun lang naman ako nakakabili nun.

Lalo na ngayong Summer na at napakainit,hindi ba't nakakahalina ang dispenser na ito na punong-puno ng yelo at malamig na Sugarcane Juice? Sa P12 per cup,solve na!

Pero pwede ka rin bumili ng 1 liter at 500ml na take home.Nakalimutan ko itanong kung magkano.Sa susunod na lang...

Drinking this juice doesn't just end there.Marami rin syang health benefits and these include:

• Prevention as well as treatment of sore throat, cold and flu. 
• It hydrates the body quickly
• It is s believed to strengthen stomach, kidneys, heart, eyes, brain and sex organs.
• It clears the urinary flow and also helps the kidney to perform its functions smoothly.
• It is also is said to speed up the recovery process after jaundice.

O ano pang hinihintay nyo? Bili na!

Magugustuhan ito ng asawa ko...

Narinig nyo na ba ang latest? Beer connoisseurs and bar owners LUIGI NUÑEZ, VINSON CO SAY AND JAY-JAY ANGALA have raised the drinking pleasure to new heights with BEER BELOW ZERO DEGREES.

Beer Below Zero Degrees are served ice-cold but not frozen.The beer bottle is wrapped in frost when it's served and it's so cold that when you tap it,Carbon Dioxide is released and it turns into beer slush!
Sasama talaga ako para makita ito kahit hindi ako umiinom.

Syempre, mas mahal ito ng kaunti kesa sa normal na beer kasi may special freezer ito dun sa mga outlets na nagse-serve nito kagaya ng Grilla (Makati and Libis branches), Padi’s Point (Mall of Asia and Remedios branches), Phi Bar, Barrakz, Quattro, Mugen, Coco Manggas, at Ascend Club in Bonifacio High Street.

"Consistency is the defining characteristic of the freezing process. It doesn’t change or mask your beer’s distinct flavor. It allows the beer’s true flavors to pull through, making it more pronounced.”

 peanutbutter♥, shall we?

Sabi ko na nga ba..

that distinct taste sa Ginger Tea ng The Spa ay walang iba kundi....(drumroll) Panucha.Yup,that's right. I tried to make the Ginger Tea kanina...W-ell ...ito sya..masarap naman,kuha yung taste nung sa The Spa,yun nga lang parang sobrang ginger-y. Sumobra yata ako sa luya...wahehe.

Ang panget ng picture ano? parang di mo iinumin kapag binigay ko sayo.Nagmamadali kasi ako kanina at as usual nagbabantay ako ng shop.Weekend pa naman ngayon...My gas! daming tao!

At ito sya kasama ang kanyang Panucha...

In search of a good Ginger Tea
