From Sheet to Drink: Milkadamia Oat Milk Slices

   Do you like drinking Oat Milk? I love having it as a substitute for dairy milk. It tastes great in my coffee, and you can even bake with it! But have you ever had Oat Milk Slices? 

It's the greatest new invention! 

   Milkadamia makes these amazing oat milk slices that are exactly what you would expect. Oat milk that has been processed in a way in which they make flat sheets that blend with water to turn into fresh oat milk. This is a better, more eco-friendly way to produce oat milk, with less packaging and lighter shipment. Every package contains 20 slices, where each slice makes 8fl oz, all you have to do is add a cup or so of water for every slice, blend for 60 seconds, and it's ready! You will have barista quality oat milk, and it froths nicely to add to your cup of tea or coffee! If you don't want to use a blender, you can soak sheet(s) in water for about 30 minutes and shake, to have your oat milk ready at hand. This makes it so great for bringing on travel or camping.

  I have to admit, I was a little skeptical about getting a nice cup of oat milk from some interesting looking sheets ... but... I'm won over!! These slices are truly amazing! I didn't expect these sheets to make such delicious oat milk.   The texture of each sheet is like that of a fruit rollup, but it's easy to fold and it blends up in water without issue. One sheet makes the right amount for a drink or bowl of cereal, and it lasts for up to 48hrs in the fridge. I like to use mine in my morning coffee. Sometimes I will use a little to make a frothy topping as well. These oat milk sheets are so easy to use and taste just as good as what you would buy in a container. The fact that their keeping excess waste out of the landfill and you can take them with you anywhere...these are the perfect invention Milkadamia could make. I am so happy I've tried them and think you will love them too! And I have to agree with their tagline...

"best thing since sliced milk"

Easy Hot Buttered Rum


  This was my first time making a Hot Buttered Rum drink and I was pleasantly surprised with how well it turned out. It was so easy to do all you need are the following ingredients:
  2 oz Rum
4oz Hot Water
2tsp Brown Sugar
1TBS Unsalted Butter 
Splash of Vanilla Extract
Dash of Cinnamon, Allspice, & Nutmeg

Take a cup and mix together the sugar, butter, vanilla, and spices. If the water isn't hot enough, the mixture doesn't really melt together as it should, so it will leave you with clumps. I find that adding in the hot water first, helps. I had a lot of fun experimenting with this! Once it is all combined, pour in the rum and hot water, stir and enjoy!

Making Delicious Drinks With Dose & Co. Collagen Creamer

Disclaimer: I received the following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own.



   If you are looking for a dairy free collagen creamer, I highly recommend Dose & Co. Their Collagen Creamer is made in a variety of flavor options to choose from, including Vanilla, Caramel, and Chocolate. I received the Vanilla Collage Creamer and absolutely love it! This creamer powder is made free of gluten, gmo and sugars. It includes 10 grams of type 1-3 Collagen and is great for the hair, skin, and nails. You use one heaping tablespoon a day to get the benefits your body desires.


   I have loved trying out this collagen creamer! It's the best I've tried yet, because it doesn't have a strong collagen taste like others do, and it dissolves perfectly in my tea. The vanilla flavor mixes well with every drink I've tried it in, including Homemade Bubble Tea! I make sure to dissolve it in warm liquids first, so there are no chunks. It adds a good texture to my drinks and makes it that much better. I've even noticed my hair and nails growing faster! I really want to try their other products, because I love this one so much!

Making Tea with the Belanko Tea Kettle



Disclaimer: I received the following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own. 

   
   This pretty little tea kettle by Belanko, is the perfect addition to a cup of tea. It holds 2.7qt and heats up quickly, ending in a loud whistle to let you know the water has boiled. It is made of professional food-grade materials and 18/8 stainless steel, with a wood patterned handle and diamond appearance. 
 
   I love the ombre blue coloration and the wood handle design, however I wish it was made of actual wood, instead of silicone. The handle is heat resistant though so that's good! I have yet to hear its whistle though, as it seems the water boils way before the whistle occurs? Fine by me though, I rather not have a whistle haha. I love using this kettle to brew the perfect cup of tea or coffee! 
 

   Find the Belanko Tea Kettle available for purchase at belanko.com where they also have other designs and fun products!

3 Samples of Twinings of London Tea

Awhile back, I signed up to receive 3 free samples of Twinings London Tea and got to choose the flavors I wanted. I went on the fly in choosing, because I'm not TOO much of a tea drinker..well, I wasn't...lol...but I am so glad with the choices I made.


   I chose French Vanilla, Chai China Oolong,  and Pumpkin Spice Chai. I love the chai flavored teas! They are so great, especially with some milk and sugar mixed in. I had to buy myself some more from the store just because it was sooo good!! I couldn't find any Pumpkin Spice but did find Vanilla Chai and got some. I love it! A great drink for this cool Fall weather.
