feeling tea-riffic

on Wed, 22 February 2012 | by

At the beginning of the year there is always lots of talk of “New Year New You”. Like most of the nation I started the year with such high hopes of a new, transformed, healthier me. So I did what most people in my position do when the 1st of January hits – I joined the gym, so far I have been (drum roll…) once!

I can safely say that the majority of the New Year’s resolutions I made at the beginning of the year have already been broken but luckily there was one resolution that I have been able to stick to and it’s actually thanks to one of our clients – Tetley. I really wanted to cut down on my caffeine intake and start drinking more green tea, especially as I had heard from a friend green tea is said to have health benefits. So I tried to replace my regular cup of tea – (which I have to express how hard that was for me!) with green tea. Again, yes, this lasted all of a week because I just missed my “normal” tea too much. Luckily for me, I then started to work on a new brand of tea brought to us from Tetley, called Blend of Both. Blend of Both is a mixture of black tea and green tea so I still feel like I’m being healthy and getting the benefits of green tea but still have the taste of my normal cuppa -It’s all about compromise!

So now it is Ash Wednesday and again I’m finding myself thinking about what I can give up – I like the idea of a compromise again so if someone discovers a biscuit that has hidden health benefits, please do let me know…
