Scribbles About Food: Citrus Green Tea Latte

So tonight I finally tried the new Citrus Green Tea Latte from Starbucks and I thought I'd do a little review on it.

I like Green Tea... but idk if this is something I'm going to order often because green tea tends to make me go to the bathroom... but today I felt like I needed it... so I got it. Lol. TMI? Yep... but thats me.

I like it. Its very refreshing, it'll be a good as a frappuccino because the citrus of it is just so refreshing. Its almost lime tasting... so it might be good frozen and with tequila... lol. Just kidding it might have too much caffeine for that. Idk if it has caffeine in it or anything... but that might not be good to mix with alcohol... if you do thats fine... but I don't want to condone that on my blog. Lol. PSA Over.

Idk how to describe it other than refreshing. It is pretty refreshing and relaxing. Idk if its supposed to make you feel more calm, but I know Tea people like tea because its calming... idk about that... but to me it feels calming and I like it. Green tea is supposed to have other benefits too I think. I don't know too much about it.

Compared to the Chai Latte... Idk. I feel like this is more flavorful... so its a little better... but I do love the chai latte. So yeah.

Idk if I'd call it better than Cool Ranch Doritos just because this is the grossest thing I can think of to compare to Cool Ranch Doritos. Just not a great combo because this is so sweet and citrusy... although I guess it could go well... like tacos and Margaritas. Lol. So... they'd be good together.

Yeah. I'd recommend f you like citrus or green teas... and even if you aren't crazy about either of those things cause I don't... I think if you like tea you might like it. It tastes pretty good!

Byeeee!

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

Scribbles about Books: Horns by Joe Hill

I picked this book up not too long ago because after seeing the trailer for the movie and seeing it was based on a book I thought "Hey, that looks good. I should read the book." Then my friend gave me a Barnes and Noble gift card for my birthday and I thought "Hey I wanted to read Horns, I should grab that." And I did, and I had to read it around halloween of corse! So this is my kind of horror story first of all. I love that the universe it takes place in is very realistic and very small-town. If you've noticed in some of my other book reviews... I like mysteries that take place in small towns. And its very believable because the world and the characters are all so real. I think its a good book just for that. The book starts out with this guy Ignatious, or Ig a year after his girlfriend Merrin is murdered. He grows horns from out of his head... for no real reason. And then a few chapters in we find out who really did it and then we find out why and that thi...
