Yum!
I love the flavours. In my opinion itโs a super-duper excellent tea 
letโs not forget about the benefits of the tulsi plant !! I highly recommend it for your cold nights , when ur under the covers watching a good movie 
Miftode
Tastes good, fresh and aromatic
Iโve been making masala chai for years, but most of the mixes taste similarโฆ this one however has a bit of a twist, whatever the composition is, it tastes lovely and isnโt your โtypicalโ masala chai mix. Iโll definitely be buying this again
Hass

๐ฉท Ruby Moon Milk for relaxation and calm on hot days ๐ฉท
This Ruby moon milk is a recipe I`ve created that`s inspired from the original Ayurvedic Ashwagandha moon milk for relaxation and calm.
Moon milk has traditionally been used in Ayurveda to help with sleep.
In this Ruby moon milk powder blend, I`ve used Rose which is calming, Ashwagandha for relaxation and spices which gives it a chai like taste. It also has magnesium glycinate which is really beneficial for a good sleep quality and easing anxiety.
Normally, it`s prepared hot but given the heatwave we are experiencing in the UK, here`s a cooling recipe that`s delicious and refreshing on a hot summer`s evening.
๐ฉท Recipe ๐ฉท
๐ Add 1/2 tsp of this moon milk blend to 1 cup of milk in a pan. Heat on a medium flame until it`s just about to boil. Stir so that the blend mixes well within the milk.
๐ฅ I used coconut milk for this video but I actually prefer oat milk. It tastes better. Traditionally, this is prepared with milk, you can use semi-skimmed milk. Feel free to use your choice of milk.
๐ญ Add sweetener if you like and leave it to cool in the fridge.
๐ง You`ll need to prepare the ice-cubes beforehand. I used a heart icecube tray and placed some rose petals along with the water in the tray so that the ice hearts have rose petals within them ๐ I just like Romanticising life ๐
Rose is used in both Ayurveda (Indian traditional medicine) and Chinese traditional medicine for cooling and calming effects.
To prepare, add the ice hearts in a glass, pour over the moon milk and enjoy ๐

๐ Cherry Chai Chia Pudding with Bourbon Biscuits ๐ซ
So I created this for the first time inspired from the Starbucks Cherry Chai Latte. I thought it was such an interesting combination of flavours.
It tasted like blackforest cake with chai all combined together in one spoonful. Ofcourse the texture was more pudding like because of the chia seeds but nonetheless worth trying!
Recipe:
โ Make masala chai from my loose leaf masala chai blend for that spicy kick
โ Soak 2-3 tbsp of chia seeds in 1 cup of chai and keep in fridge overnight (I would suggest making two portions out of this or consuming it over two days rather than at a go)
๐ Make cherry Compote. Cook some fresh cherries with a little bit of sugar and water until they are soft. (Add vanilla extract if you like)
๐ Cut up some fresh cherries for a little bit of crunch
๐ช Layer up starting with the chai chia pudding, then Compote, then chia pudding and finally garnish with fresh chopped cherries and either bourbon biscuits for a chocolatey taste or Biscoff.
This makes for an indulgent protein rich snack with all the amazing cherries that are now in season ๐๐ yum ๐
You`ll need quite a few cherries to make the Compote. It really added a delicious taste to this chia pudding which gave it that blackforest cake like taste.
Benefits of chia seeds:
โจ Protein rich
โจ Healthier snack for weight loss
โจ Fibre
โจ Omega 3 fats
โจ Antioxidant rich
Benefits of cherries:
๐ Antioxidant rich
๐ May aid sleep
๐ May reduce inflammation
๐ Vitamin C
Benefits of biscuits:
๐ซ Make you happy
๐ซ Encourage you to then exercise

Peace ๐ค This is what I strive for.
The older I get, the more I realise that going against the tide is what actually brings peace. How ironic.
What do you do to make life a little more peaceful?

๐ Blue Mondays call for a fun colour changing blue iced tea. Meet these new butterfly pea flower & lavender tea bags ๐
These beautiful butterfly pea flowers come from Thailand and are super rich in anthocyanins which gives this tea its blue colour. These are the same anthocyanins found in blueberries that may fight oxidative stress which are responsible for premature aging i.e. this tea may be your fountain of youth โบ๏ธ
When a dash of lemon or anything acidic such as citrus fruits are mixed with this blue tea, it turns purple like magic! โจ
Butterfly flowers do not have much of a taste, they can be quite bland and earthy. I`ve added lavender to this tea blend to give it that delicious camphor like taste. Probably best drunk at night for a good night`s beauty sleep ๐
To make this iced tea:
1 tea bag of @betterfoodmood blue flower & lavender tea bag
Ice
Lemon slice
๐ Brew tea and chill in the fridge
๐ง Add ice to your glass
๐ Add a lemon slice
๐ Pour chilled tea over your ice and watch it turn purple
Happy days x

๐ธThe days lately have been feeling much more relaxed which has been a welcome break. I`m adding more self-care and me time to my days because after working nonstop for 3 long years, I`m beginning to feel that life is just passing me by.
I absolutely love London because there`s always something fun going on and this week, my highlight was Chelsea in Bloom.
In these pictures, you`ll find;
1) Chelsea in Bloom flowery art - the beautiful lady with an umbrella. Contrast this with the punk
2) New hair - I cut it all off. Sometimes when life is getting monotonous, I like to do something drastic like getting a new hair style โบ๏ธ I`m currently loving my short hair
3) Making it my mission to cook homemade food everyday for the sake of my health
4) Visited my deer friends after ages, we had a lot to catch up on โบ๏ธ
5) Sometimes certain books find their way into my hands with the right message ๐ฉท
6) I have been going on nature walks frequently and it has been life changing. The level of productivity and inspiration from these walks is unmatched ๐ณ
7) La vie en rose on Violins @johnlewis_peterjones

It`s still abit chilly but my saga of overnight oats continues. As my favourite month approaches, it`s also the month of berries and I absolutely love them.
This chocolate and raspberry overnight oats are so indulgent and like having a dessert for breakfast ๐ซ
Recipe:
50g oats
1 tsp raw cacao
2 tbsp greek yoghurt
1/2 cup milk
Handful of raspberries
Small pieces of Fruit & Nut Dark chocolate (yes, I indulged - atleast it`s dark ๐)
Mix all of the above.
Melt some dark chocolate, pour on top. Finish off with a few more raspberries, add blueberries if you fancy and sprinkle some seeds. I used my @betterfoodmood omega mix with 6 seeds - flaxseed, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, hemp seeds and sesame seeds.
Keep overnight in the fridge and yum yum in the morning. (Also the relief when I wake up in bed the next morning and realise breakfast is ready โบ๏ธ๐๐)
