Surprise the Person on Your #TASSIMONiceList with the TASSIMO T47 Brewer-Giveaway

November 27, 2015 by Kathryn 265 Comments

It’s no secret how much I love coffee. I love a simple cup of regular coffee with cream, a fancy latte or cappuccino as a treat, a mocha when I’m in the mood for something sweet…if there’s a drink with coffee involved in any way, I’m a fan. But I’m the only one in the house that really drinks it, so using a full-sized coffee maker on an everyday basis just doesn’t make sense. That’s why single-serve coffeemakers have been a favourite in this house for years.

The very first single-serve coffee machine I ever owned was a TASSIMO, and I absolutely loved it. I only stopped using it because I accidentally melted its cord when it was too close to the stove and never got around to replacing it. In the years that followed, I tried plenty of other single-serve coffee machines and I enjoyed them all. But I still remember how much I loved that very first TASSIMO machine.

So when I had the chance to receive and review this year’s ultimate Christmas gift for coffee lovers, the TASSIMO T47 brewer, it was a dream come true! Before the machine even arrived, I was online shopping for all my favourite varieties of TASSIMO T DISCs so that I could whip up some tasty beverages as soon as it arrived. [Read more…]

Tetley Perk Tea-The Same Caffeine as Coffee in a Cup of Tea-Review and Giveaway

December 4, 2011 by Kathryn 112 Comments

There’s nothing I love more than a hot cup of tea on a cold day. But sometimes I really need the boost I get from a cup of coffee, even if I would rather have the flavour of tea. Now, thanks to Tetley, a company that has given people scrumptious tea choices for 170 years, I don’t have to choose between the taste I love and the caffeine boost I need!

Tetley Perk is the newest product in the Tetley family, and Canadians are the first to be able to experience the tea that has the same amount of caffeine as a cup of coffee. I was so excited when I got the chance to try it for myself!

The first thing I noticed when I made a cup of Tetley Perk was that it brewed exactly like a cup of regular tea. There was no need for extra steeping or anything else; I just brewed my tea the same way that I usually do. And the taste, too, was exactly the same as a cup of regular tea! My all-time favourite hot drink is regular tea with a splash of milk, which I still affectionately call “brown tea and milk,” the name my father used for regular tea with milk when I was just a child. I loved having this caffeinated “grown-up” version of my long-time beloved drink and it’s become my favourite nighttime beverage when I’m up late working on my blog.

But don’t take my word for it! Tetley wants to let you experience the delicious taste of Tetley Perk tea for yourself, so they are offering one lucky Mommy Kat and Kids reader an incredible Tetley Perk gift basket containing tea mugs, a teapot, a tea timer and Tetley Perk tea!

And you’ll love that you can get all the flavour of tasty Tetley orange pekoe while still getting the energy boost you need!

Tetley Colour Therapy-Review

January 29, 2011 by Kathryn 1 Comment

I’ve loved a hot cup of herbal tea ever since I was a child, and the distinctive round teabags of Tetley were always a favourite in my eyes. There is something so deeply satisfying about brewing a cup of tea and sitting down to relax and sip away at it, and Tetley’s incredible selection of flavours made it easy to enjoy a cup of tea anytime.

The quiz was so much fun that I actually took it four or five times, purposely entering different information that I thought fit best with some of my most common moods and situations, just to see what the results would be. The quiz contains nine questions and uses a sliding scale to discover your mood and match it with the perfect Tetley tea. Some of the questions dealt with personality and would most likely always be consistent. For example, I always consider myself to be confident and optimistic.

Other questions had answers that would vary depending on certain times and situations. The very first question, in fact, is about the time of day. It’s such a basic question, but really, who wants a caffeinated green tea late at night?

One of the most innovative things about the quiz was the way that the background screen would change as I answered questions, so that I could see for myself what colour would best compliment my mood.

My first attempt at the quiz told me that orange was my colour and Tetley Warmth Tea, a cinnamon tea with orange blossom, sweet liquorice, cardamom and clove, would be perfect to help me relax and indulge in some quality “me” time. The tea sounded scrumptious, and when I received a sample to try for myself, I was definitely impressed. The fragrant cinnamon and other spices were both warming and soothing, and the hint of orange added just the right zing to help make this tea both relaxing and energizing. I love to drink it right after I put the boys to bed, because it helps me release the stress of the day so that I can get busy blogging!

tetley colour therapy assorted teasI enjoyed the Tetley Colour Therapy quiz so much that when I learned my best mid-morning tea would be the purple Tetley Clarity Tea, a blend of blueberry with ginseng and gingko, I bought a canister to try out. This tea is the perfect way to get through that mid-morning mental slump and focus on the tasks of the day, and the fabulous fresh blueberry flavour is sensational.

Since I do love tea so much, I expected to love the varieties I tried, and I wasn’t disappointed. But I certainly didn’t expect to enjoy the Tetley Colour Therapy quiz so much. It was a fun and original way to choose a variety of tea that I would love, and reading the results was enough to make me crave a freshly brewed cup. If you love tea and want to find out which variety will suit you best, check out the Tetley Colour Therapy quiz for yourself. It’s quick, easy and so much fun!
