November 1, 2007

Have you heard of Mighty Leaf? Did you know they make all these lovely blends of loose tea? Did you know tea has antioxidant flavonoids?

Cocoa Comfort

October 30, 2007

There’s this little gem of a bistro/cafe I found last summer and it was perfect because no one really knew about it and they renovated a downtown shop leaving the brick exposed and putting cafe tables with umbrellas outside and every Saturday after the Farmer’s Market I would go there to get a cuppa. That [...]

Cool Weather Coffee

October 25, 2007

I wanted iced tea but the weather turned on me so as I rolled down the window to place an order for tea I heard myself say, “Chocolate raspberry truffle coffee. Large. With some cream. And three Splenda.” And now I have cause for concern for getting out a larger pant size during this cool [...]

Mexican Fiesta

October 11, 2007

It’s a Spanish-themed day here at MochaMomma and I’m planning on getting my favorite iced tea from my favorite new coffee hut called K.I.S.S. Coffee. The barista/owner is beginning to know me by now considering the fact that I’ve gotten my punch card filled out and received a free drink last week. She makes a [...]

Sissy Green Tea

October 3, 2007

Panera makes a green tea that is bearable for those of us too wimpy to drink the real stuff. Theirs is “infused with passion fruit and papaya” which means it’s fruity, not tart. It’s drinkable. It’s yumm-able.
