The Delicious Italian Soda

Today's recipe comes from my mother who had found it out from an old friend who used to be a bartender.
In order to start this amazing very filling drink you need the following:

Sprite Soda (Can be replicated with any other light flavored soda; carbonated)
Half and Half
Orange Juice
Red Rose Grenadine (Can be found at any liquor store; non-alcoholic)

Begin and find a cup of any size a medium to large cup is of recommended choice.  Filled the bottom portion about just 1 1/2 to two inches of red rose grenadine, begin to then pour equal parts of half and half which should be the same or a tad more than the red rose used and fill the rest of the cup with your Sprite Soda or carbonated light flavored drink equivalent. Simply stir and enjoy; what comes out is a pink, fizzy, filling, delicious drink you can make anytime :D

Eggs, Toast & Sausage Trick - For Breakfeast or Whenever Eaten!

 Break Feast Image Source
Break feast! The first meal of the day and sometimes referred to as the most important, whatever you may be eating. In this scenario if you are eating Sausage, Eggs or having toast on the side as well here are a few tips that you can try and make your morning plate yummier!

     Now again some of these are personal liking and it varies from person to person. If you are eating eggs you can have them with regular with salt and pepper, or spice it up with some salsa sauce typically used is Pace picante which has a very little heat but flavor to it that's up to you but that is what I have used. Now if you are one of those risk-takers you can try the egg with some regular old ketchup mmmm that tastes good, but don't use too much! Lastly for the egg combo you can get some really hot warm fresh toast out of the toaster, put your favorite butter on and slap that egg in the middle! That's a nice warm meal to wake up to, but keep a napkin around it may get messy with the yolk.

    Here ye here ye, the last one the meal of a man SAUSAGE! Either it is links or patties you decide, a nice homemade trick I have learned is mixing a small amount of Heinz ketchup and a bit of A1 Steak Sauce together and using that as your dip for that meaty goodness! Lastly bacon if you have bacon, just let it be it's already tasty enough and man enough for you!
Have fun crunching!!

Sweet Black Tea (Hot or Cold)

                                Today's recipe is on how to make some delicious black tea!
    This recipe was all made using ingredients all found in the house so it should be very easy to make some awesome tea. The things you will need will be (1)Black Tea Bag, (1) Spoon (1)A container of sugar, running water, a microwave, ice, honey, a measuring cup and your favorite cup!

Begin with your choice of black tea, cup, & type of tea regarding hot or cold to your liking!

I had the option of Lipton Black Tea.

My mothers tea cup.
A measuring cup (US).
Assuming you have these items to begin there are two ways to make the tea A) Represents the formula of making Hot Tea and B) Chilled Tea.

A) Begin by grabbing one black tea bag and all the necessary items, fill the the measuring cup until the brim with water then put it in the microwave (1100 Watt used in this case) and then put the water on for about ~1:00 or 2:00 minutes to your liking) if you are the other type of person use the stove and boil the water.
Afterwards dunk the tea bag into the measuring cup and make sure all the flavoring is in the water after swishing the bag around and dunking it up and down in the water like a buoy floating in the ocean which has waves moving steadily. Now take the tea cup and add the tea into it and if you like put sugar (or your sugar substitute into the halfway filled cup) if any, for a regular tasting tea with a slight sweet taste put two "light" (sugar is light as in covers metal of the spoon in the minimal amount used) spoonfuls of sugar into the tea cup and stir vigorously; however if you like sweeter tea then go ahead and put two heaping scoops of sugar. If you desire (like a genie giving you three wishes) to use honey go ahead and fill the spoon with honey (do not use too much because it may not all dissolve in the tea) and swish vigorously and afterwards, clean up put away the things used and enjoy some warm sweet black tea~! *For those wanting chilled tea please continue below:


B)Repeat and do all the same steps from A) until you reach the step of putting in the honey, in this case when the tea is finished boiling or out of the microwave keep it inside the measuring cup and mix the tea with it. Read carefully for this step here because when you put the hot tea in the tea cup then you will want to put in the desired amount of sugar & honey too; but do that first because honey mixes better with hot tea rather than cold, I know this from experience this afternoon having some honey stuck at the bottom of the cup, mix vigorously and then put in the needed amount of ice cubes ~2 or three for tea cooked with the microwave and perhaps a bit more using your own judgement if cooked with boiling water. Now the whole point of not making cold tea from the start and just drinking it rather than cooking it first of all is that the sugar and the honey will mix better and become more soluble. After clean up the mess if any, sit back; relax and enjoy that delicious tea!
