Yes, I'm a big coffee drinker, and yes, I love drinking 3-in-1 coffee that I get sa grocery store. Yung mga madalas kong bilhin are from very affordable brands na mga naka-single-serve sachets na. I've tried some coffee na rin naman from more expensive brands pero pagdating sa packaging, this one from Bache Coffee that we got as a gift has got to be the most luxe and glamorous-looking. Actually, nung binigay sya samin, hindi ako pamilyar sa brand. Kaya I looked for it online and found out that Bacha Coffee pala is a luxury coffee brand that specialises in 100% pure Arabica coffees and has its origins in Marrakech, Morocco. As I mentioned, packaging pa lang, bongga na. From the aesthetically pleasing, thick quality, gold-coloured box na may mga matching gold individual coffee sachets din sa loob. Plus, a mini booklet showing their various coffee bag collection choices and an instruction card on how to brew the coffee. The one we got was Bacha Marrakech Morning Coffee which is described to having notes of juicy plum and wild cherry na may flavour profile na fruity, malty, and nutty. It has a somewhat strong coffee flavor and I like that it wasn't bitter or acidic at all in taste, but I still prefer to have it with a little sugar and milk. Also, madali lang din sya i-prepare, parehas lang with other single-serve drip coffees. Honestly, it's not something I'll buy for myself and hindi ko rin masyadong bet yung lasa, but for that pangmayaman coffee experience it gave, okay na rin. Bacha Drip Coffee boxes is available at kopimania.ph for P2,160 but on sale now at P1,600 (Box of 12 bags).

Sino sa inyo yung madalas mag-crave ng drinks na may extra fizz and punch pero ayaw uminom ng soft drinks? Because, let's face it sodas are loaded with sugar content. This is why lately, I've been drinking and loving sparkling water. Sparkling Water is also a carbonated beverage pero ang kaibahan nya sa soft drink, it is naturally carbonated. Its bubbles come from a spring or well with naturally occurring carbonation. It also contains calcium, sodium and magnesium that are beneficial for health. Just like Perrier Sparkling Mineral Water na bukod sa refreshing, it's also a fun drink without the added calories and no sugar din. Definitely a healthy and natural alternative to carbonated soft drink. Plus, bukod sa kanilang plain sparkling water, they also offer fruit-flavored ones. I've actually tried one of their latest flavors na available na dito sa atin. It's the Perrier Pink Grapefruit Flavored Sparkling Water. It has a really subtle essence of the sweet-and-tart flavor of pink grapefruit. It's nice, refreshing and bubbly. Perfect sa mga mahihilig sa mga flavored refreshments but with 0% of the guilt. Perrier Sparkling Mineral Water is available in S&R, Landmark, and The Marketplace. Also at Lazada and Shopee. For more details, visit Perrier PH on Facebook or at @perrierph on Instagram.
Ever since na-discover ko yung napakaraming health benefits ng chia seeds; from being highly nutritious, loaded with antioxidants, may reduce risk of heart disease, and many others, parati na akong naghahanap ng iba't ibang recipes na pwede kong ma-incorporate ang mga little nutrition powerhouses na ito. Usually, I use them as toppings sa mga yogurt bowls or make 3-4-ingredient pudding recipes. But recently, I've been mixing chia seeds in water, lemon, and honey. Not only it's refreshing but it's also a really healthy drink. Plus, napakadali lang gawin. This is a natural energy drink and it's a protein-rich drink, so maganda rin sya if you're trying to lose weight. You can drink this at any time of the day, although chia seeds are best in the morning as they are easy to consume during morning meals and give maximum benefits with morning usage just like any detox drink. Ang tip ko lang, be sure to stir the seeds well when you add them to the water or what I do is, I like to soak chia seeds for at least 30 minutes to plump up nicely and attain that gel-like consistency bago ko i-add yung lemon and honey. I also prefer to drink it with ice. The brand of chia seeds I'm using is Nutrifam which readily available sa maraming grocery stores dito sa atin, plus it's more affordable than other brands and organic na rin sya. Share nyo na rin mga ka-grocery moms some of your healthy drink recipes.
Next to Japanese treats, packs and packs of drip coffee ang palagi kong nire-request na pasalubong sa mga relatives namin sa Japan dahil alam naman nila na I'm the ultimate coffee lover in the family. Also, with drip coffee kasi, ibang level yung experience of making your coffee with individually packaged pour-over filter that unfolds to sit perfectly on top of the mug. Bonus pa yung aroma at lasa ng freshly brewed coffee that never fails to brighten my mood. Luckily for me mga ka-grocery moms, yung isa sa pinaka-favorite kong Japanese brands ng drip coffee ay available na dito sa atin. I think since 2018 pa. It's one of Japan's oldest and most trusted coffee brands - Key Coffee. Key Coffee's best-selling Drip On delivers a coffee just as delicious as one brewed with a drip machine. Each variant has that complex flavours of a specialty coffee na syempre nae-enjoy ko. My top three blends from them are Special Blend which is their signature award-winning blend. It gives off that nutty, cocoa-like aroma with a perfectly balanced bitterness and acidity. I also enjoy Mocha Blend na may floral aroma at berry-like taste. Lastly, their Toraja Blend na may rich aroma na may halong citrus yung lasa with sweet overtones. Aside from Key Coffee Drip On, they also offer a huge variety of Ground Coffee, 3-in-1 Coffee, Coffee Mugs & more that you can shop at Lazada & Shopee. You may also visit them at Key Coffee Philippines on Facebook or at @keycoffeeph on Instagram.
Immune boosting ang isa sa mga trending topics lalo na nung nagsisimula pa lang ang pandemic. Good thing na ngayon aware na tayo sa iba't ibang paraan para mapalakas ang ating immune system. From eating properly, being physically active, getting enough sleep, and managing stress. Pero how about, drinking healthy juices? Particularly, cold-pressed juices? Sa pagkakaintindi ko mga ka-grocery moms, cold pressing is when liquid is extracted from fruits and vegetables using a special juicer with little to no heat, which keeps vital vitamins intact. The resulting juice is often higher in nutrients. This is why cold-pressed juice is known for its boundless health benefits. From strengthening the immune system, improving digestion, detoxification of kidneys and liver, and many more. Kung tatanungin ninyo ako where you can buy these cold-pressed juices, na walang added water at sugar, just 100% cold pressed fruits and vegetables. You can get yours at Poppy Seeds! Each of their bottle contains 300ml of pure fruits and vegetables only na pwede ninyong ma-enjoy on the go, pre or post workout, or whenever you need a pick-me-up. They currently have four variants, each with their own purpose: Fix Your Self (Celery, Cucumber, Apple, Ginger), Kick Start (Orange, Lemon, Apple, Ginger), In Havana (Pineapple, Coconut Water, Apple), and Liver Lover (Apple, Beetroor, Carrot, Ginger). I got to try all four and they're quite refreshing, a lighter tasting, sweeter juices with smooth flavors. Though the one with beetroot and ginger was quite strong for my liking.

Isa ako sa maraming tao na nagre-rely sa coffee when I need help to get through my day which is every single day. But I know that some people choose energy drinks to replenish their energy including my husband. Siguro the only time na umiinom ako ng energy drink is kapag plano kong mag-exercise or medyo nagsasawa na ko sa lasa ng coffee. Alam naman natin na this beverage offers a significant caffeine boost which is even stronger than some coffees, plus they also have a variety of tasty and interesting flavors. We got to try a local energy drink which contains guarana, one of the most potent and safe power boosters - it's the Black Mamba Energy Drink. It claims to suppress appetite for weight loss, reduce fatigue, relieve hangover, and more. Pagdating naman sa lasa, it tastes like soda, it has that zing that you get from energy drinks, but it's definitely lacking the depth and the boldness in terms of flavors na meron yung ibang na-try ko na before. Nonetheless, it's a nice drink that can help us feel more energized. Black Mamba Energy Drink is available in all leading drugstores & convenience stores nationwide. You may visit Black Mamba Energy Drink on Facebook or follow them at @blackmambaph on Instagram.
7-Eleven is definitely the place to stop for when I want to try some new snacks and drinks. At isa ang Wira Pineapple sa mga na-discover kong brand sa store na nagustuhan ko. Wira Pineapple is a fizzy drink na may perfect blend ng sweet pineapple at soda. It comes in two flavors: Wira Pineapple Dry and Wira Pineapple Supreme. Both are perfectly bubbly with nice sweet pineapple flavor, very refreshing at ang pinakanagustuhan ko, they're less acidic than most other fizzy drinks I've tried. Wira Pineapple is available at your nearest 7-Eleven store for P35. You may also visit Wira Pineapple on Facebook or follow them at @wirapineappleph on Instagram.
Share nyo na rin mga ka-grocery moms if you've tried these drinks. I frequently experienced digestive issues particularly bloating last year, so a friend recommended that I try drinking a peppermint tea. Surprisingly, it did help in relieving and soothing that uncomfortable condition. Honestly mga ka-grocery moms, I very much prefer coffee over tea pero aware din naman ako that for many many years, herbal teas have been used as natural remedies for a variety of ailments kagaya na rin ng na-experience ko, plus they have health-promoting properties. This is why, when I go grocery shopping nowadays naghahanap ako ng iba't ibang types of teas that offer potential health benefits. Sa mga napuntahan ko ng supermarkets, Metro Supermarket na siguro ang nakita kong may pinakamadaming options for tea. Share nyo rin mga ka-grocery moms if you've tried any of the teas na nakita ko sa store.

Kagaya ng Pasko, this holiday is a time to gather with friends and family to eat and drink. Today I will be focusing on the drinking part as I spotted a lot of alcoholic drinks from wine, beer, some spirits and soju at Puregold. P.S.
Enjoy these drinks, hopefully in moderation! To see more, visit Puregold on their social media links here: https://puregold.com.ph/ https://www.facebook.com/puregold.shopping |
