Only dull people are brilliant at breakfast

Rebel green tea mylk

'All happiness depends on a leisurely breakfast'

Attempting to be healthier, I've been drinking Matcha Tea for breakfast in a bid to kick start my metabolism. I particularly like the Green Tea Powder from Teapigs, which claims to have 137 times the antioxidants of standard green tea. 

However, carrying round a hand held mini-whisk to make the drink isn't always practical...

Welcome, Rebel Kitchen Green Tea Mylk. 

For years I've been obsesses with Rebel Kitchen's delicious drinks - I remember ordering packs of their children's drinks when they were exclusively available online (heck, I couldn't wait for the adult launch!).

Made with a base of coconut milk blended with pure spring water from Somerset, it contains no preservatives or additives. Just make sure you give it a good shake before opening - no-one enjoys chewing matcha lumps. 

With the prospect of snacks coming soon, it's an exciting time for the brand. In the meantime, however, I'm supplementing my green tea with Graze.com's new selection of healthy breakfast cereals. 


Happy National Milk Day | Daioni

Happy National Milk Day | Daioni

Today marks National Milk Day, historically a celebration of the first day when milk was delivered in glass bottles, allowing it to stay fresher for longer. 

Today, however, it is dedicated to encouraging children and adults alike to get their calcium fix. 

A brand I have recently had my eye on is Daioni, which is available in my local cafe The Green Owl, Buckhurst Hill. 

The Welsh company has created cartons of Chocolate, Banana and Strawberry organic milk which are free from artificial flavourings. 

Milk isn't the first drink I would reach for (especially not flavoured milk due to their thick constancy and artificial taste), however these packs of goodness have become a breakfast staple in my household. 

With only 25% of boys and less than 10% of girls aged between 9-13 consuming the recommended amount of calcium, these handy cartons are also great for packed lunches. 

Available in 200ml and 250ml cartons you can pick up yours at Ocado and independent delis and cafes nationwide for 79p and 99p.

Easter Luxury: The Armani Easter Egg

April 03, 2012

Armani clothes give you stylish fashion you can wear, but now they have fashionable decadence you can eat as well.

For Easter this year forget the traditional chocolate bunny or Cadbury Egg, Armani has their own white, dark and milk chocolate Dolci Egg creations to tempt even the richest palate.

Embossed with the unmistakable "A" and delivered in a sky blue box dressed with a ribbon, these chocolate eggs are not for the children to hunt down in the yard, but for a special someone who deserves some sweetness this spring.
