Downing Drinks


Some people drown their worries with alcohol. Some smother it with lots of chocolate. Some suppress it with a good cup of java. I am no exception. Coffee is really something that I really enjoy.

Of course during the course of this blog, there were incidences when I became somewhat of a coffee addict. It wasn't fun, knowing your body is dependent on something that you used to think as just another beverage.

It has a taste that I find liberating. Yeah I sound like an addict but i know its not the caffeine, as if not I could just down a can of Relentless which just makes me hyper. Although I do admit berry Relentless is amazing. There goes that 'Red Bull gives you wings' campaign.All it does is just to make you ultra hyper. An interesting note. The blue and silver blend is banned in Malaysia and hence we have the low caffeinne gold one from Thailand.

Its rich flavour, velvety texture, tingling the soul and at the same time keeps me calm and focused. It doesn't matter where I get it. Starbucks, Costa or just plain Nescafe 3 in 1. As long its rich I like it.

When something keeps me down and I need a pick me up, coffee would be it. If the weather is cold and I need a hot drink, there is coffee again. If I need a drink to keep me company when I work or study. there is coffee again. Or when I am just chilling, coffee is there once more. Not just that I like it in food as well, desserts preferably. Mocha mousse? coffee cheesecake? Americano granita? Bliss!

Its something in it that makes me feel good. Caffeine? Anti-oxidants? Its bitter sweet flavour? I don't know, but one thing is for sure. I need a cup soon.
