C’est parti : 26. SAKURAYU (桜湯) Le Sakurayu, ou “Thé de Sakura”, est fait directement à partir de fleurs de cerisiers salées comestibles. De l’eau chaude est simplement versée sur une ou deux fleurs de Sakura, cette combinaison se transforme alors en sorte de tisane. L’eau libère l’arôme et la senteur fleuri et donne un léger goût salé au thé. 27. 28. 29. 30.

Cependant, on oublie bien souvent les boissons qui, elles aussi, réservent souvent de bien bonnes surprises. Outre la variété évidente de thés verts au Japon et l’éventail énorme de boissons alcoolisées, on trouve aussi des liquides bien mystérieux qui laissent parfois songeur sur leur consistance exacte. Security Feelbetter, boisson digestive sans alcool facilite la digestion des aliments et des boissons - Security feel better - PPN SA. HONEST TEA - Refreshingly HONEST® Thé, café, jus de fruits : certains l'aiment salé. En France, boire salé n’est pas une habitude, l’idée a même tendance à nous dégoûter.
En Asie en revanche, suite à une longue tradition, le concept de la boisson au sel est totalement intégré. Avec le développement de l’industrie agro-alimentaire, et particulièrement l’explosion du marché des boissons au Japon et à Taïwan, le sel est même devenu un ingrédient qui fait vendre. Aujourd’hui, le café salé est en plein boum à Taipei, les jus de fruits au sel font des ravages à Tokyo. Lipton Pure Leaf Teas are Delicious! Have you seen the new Lipton Pure Leaf Teas?

Mike's Road Trip. Top Four Best Bottled Iced Tea I love iced tea and over the years have become quite the connoisseur.
I’ve never been much of a soda drinker, but iced tea is something I drink just about every day. The following list is my top-4 favorite bottled teas, loose leaf or bagged tea would be a different list. #1) Republic of Tea is the hands down winner as the best bottled ice tea on the market. Their tea is absolute gourmet quality…and, with flavors like Sangria Hibiscus, it’s no wonder. . #2) Honest Tea is my next favorite and the one I drink the most of. Long…well, they’re honestly good. Raspberry Quince Black Iced Tea. Kombucha: An Old Drink Making New Claims. I stumbled upon a new drink recently in my local supermarket — the bottles were in a refrigerated case next to a colorful array of super juices and fortified teas.
The name was Kombucha. I didn’t really know about it before, but I sure do now. I picked up a bottle of GT’s Organic Raw Kombucha and put it in my cart to try at home. I couldn’t believe what was written on the label. It appeared to be a miracle elixir — capable of curing practically everything, including cancer. It looks like Kombucha Tea may be the next big thing, the new “super food.”
But expect to see even more companies jump on the Kombucha bandwagon. Can This Seedy Drink Make You A Better Athlete? The other day, I was wandering through Whole Foods and ran across a new drink in the aisle: Mamma Chia ($3.50/bottle).
It’s a beverage made almost completely out of chia seeds. The texture was different, yes, but not in a negative way. It almost tasted like a smoothie. And the flavor I chose (Cherry Lime, which tasted almost exactly like a Sonic® Cherry Limeade) was delicious, which was surprising given how little sugar and calories the drink contained (only 110 calories for an entire bottle and 9g of sugar, which isn’t fantastic but not terrible either). Besides the novelty factor, the part that really enticed me was how good this drink was for my body. I remembered reading an article from health expert (and, in full transparency, my sister-in-law), Laura Holien, who researched these seeds and had quite a lot of positive things to say about them. So, here's how the story goes. All of the sudden, these people in our group, some of them ultra runners, start discussing chia seeds.
