Yoji and the Foodies

Just thought I’d remind all the women out there who have been forgetting their daily dose of calcium. If you are like me who has low tolerance for milk, a good alternative is the chocolate flavor Anlene Concentrate. Don’t worry, it’s a low fat milk drink with 4x more calcium than regular milk. The best part is that they’re ready to drink and come in cute 125 ml tetra pak.

I’m not too keen on trying the Vanilla flavor though.

Mah homie from work says she’s so cool that she doesn’t need no stinking chill pill.  Fine. She’s a seratonin factory disguised as an office drone like many others I know. I call my chill pill, natural supplements  – because that’s what it says on the label. There are times when the events of the day are too overwhelming that my nerves start to go on overdrive. Not many people understand this, but if not controlled, this can lead to panic attacks or anxiety attacks. Of course, leading a healthy lifestyle and a having a happy fulfilled life can combat such “disorder”. Unfortunately, only aliens can have both, hence, the need for a chill pill.

A chill pill can be a medicine, a hobby, a sport, or anything that helps reduce stress levels caused by life. Whatever floats your boat, man! I have a few on my list and have added one more…..

It’s a clear carbonated flavoured drink. It’s another one of those fancy drinks that has a short product life span. I say this because the they are not advertised and you don’t see them in mass quantities in supermarkets. Plus, if people want carbonated drinks, they go for Coke or Pepsi. But what I like about this drink is that it tastes like lemon water. It’s refereshing and best of all, I like the transparent can. It’s all in the packaging, baby!

It’s shocking, isn’t it? Well, that is the point of it all. Believe it or not, there is a 100% natural energy drink called Pussy. In fact, Gordon Ramsay, after cheating death, is back in the headlines after the controversial energy drink was featured in the latest episode of “The F Word”. It’s enough to cause a deluge of complaints. Well, the pussy company got what they wanted: attention. I’m just not sure if they really want that much attention.

Here’s their marketing pitch:

Pussy is a 100% natural drink. No nasty chemicals and nothing manufactured. It is made for people looking for a natural alternative. The name Pussy shocks and demands attention – that’s the point. Inhibition is a recipe for mediocrity. This is a premium energy drink named with confidence

Why was the product name allowed in the first place? Don’t tell me that those who approved the name didn’t think malicious thoughts when they read the name. Come on, don’t make me think that I’m the only one who has a dirty mind.

Gosh! What would they think of next? Penis energy bar?

So, I have been busy concocting new Iced Tea recipes and after four tries, I got the taste that I wanted. I had a little Iced Tea party to see if it’s going to be a hit. I can’t really tell if it was a big hit, but I can surely say that there is a potential. Even my hard-to-please dad said it was very refreshing. Ok, ALL Iced Teas are refreshing, for crying out loud! What a way to dodge the question.

I’d like to think that 99% of the tasters liked the Iced Tea. But you know, I want people to Loooveee it! Damn it! Hehe. So, I am posting the recipe in the hope that somebody who has a lot of time (and preferebly money) in their hands will try making the Yoji Iced Tea.

4 Teabags Lipton Yellow Tea
2/3 cup brown sugar
6 cups water
1 cup hot water
1 tbsp strawberry syrup
1 tbsp honey
1 medium size orange
mint leaves
ice cubes
