P52- {Drink up} and Poetic Winter Challenge-{Warmth}
It has been a rather freezing few days over in Taiwan. The weather started turning colder after we arrived and it went down to a really cold 11 degrees. The icy winds really send chills down your spine. It has really been a long time since I have experienced such a cold. Luckily there were many tasty warm drinks to drive the chills away.
A hot mug of coffee for the hubs.
A pot of apple and chrysanthemum tea which was absolutely refreshing.
Traditional Chinese Tea served at meals in a Chinese restaurant.
What’s your favourite “Keep Warm” drink?

I was hoping to get a shot of the beautiful coffee drinks they make here in Seoul, but there just wasn’t much time for that this week! Glad you were able to stay warm…it’s almost gotten above freezing here this week!

Nice shots!
February 10, 2012 @ 7:43 pm

I just started drinking tea this year, but have always enjoyed hot chocolate. Love your pictures!

Apple and chrysanthemum tea sounds so good right now! It’s freezing here right now. I have my ‘mug’ of tieh kuan yin next to me and I worry that I won’t be able to sleep tonight!

Beautiful pictures. I could really go for a cup of tea right now.
February 10, 2012 @ 9:48 pm
Great photos! I’m a big fan of green tea and mint hot chocolate. Yum!

I love green tea too!! If you do have a chance do try out TWG- Silvermoon green tea it’s heavenly.
February 10, 2012 @ 9:52 pm
Love a great green tea or HOT COCO!
Stopping by with vB
BTW I <3 the reflection of you in the tea pot ;D

Those are all amazing shots – and that tea does sound refreshing!
My favorite warm-up drink is coffee with French Vanilla creamer, or hot chocolate with marshmallows! 🙂
February 10, 2012 @ 10:15 pm
So fun! This makes me want to make something to drink.
I LOVE coffee or oolong tea :0)

I’d drink hot chocolate on a chilly day.. but it’s never really *that* chilly here in the Philippines. But that doesn’t stop me from drinking hot choco. Haha

I love hot tea on a cold day.

Hot chocolate is my favorite! I do remember in Germany having hot wine. Sounds odd, but it was pretty good on a really cold night. Lovely pictures and post.

Coffee in the morning, hot chocolate during the day and at night.

I love that International French Vanilla Coffee. Have a great weekend.

I love the heart in the first pic! All of them were excellent, but that first one stood out to me. : )

My favorite is definitely coffee! Love the first picture! Stay warm and have a good weekend!

Hot chocolate or a really good fresh warmed apple cider.
February 11, 2012 @ 10:01 am
Great shot. It would be hot chocolate for me.
February 11, 2012 @ 10:41 am
The first shot is great. I love coffee and apple cider.

@Catherine,
Hot chocolate is one of my favourite drinks too.. My boys love it too!!
February 11, 2012 @ 12:01 pm
Love warm drinks- especially coffee. Stopping over from Mom Loop- Happy Friday!
February 11, 2012 @ 8:09 pm
For me, nothing beats a cup of hot chocolate :). Although that tea in your pic looks promising…
February 11, 2012 @ 11:50 pm
Love the mug with the heart swirl in the drink. So beautiful. I’m a big hot mug of anything delicious drinking kind of gal. I have a preference for green tea and I flavor it with the variety of flavored coffee creamers which are found in the dairy section of most grocery stores. It’s so delicious that way! 🙂
Blessings,

Oh lovely! I need a warm drink about now 🙂 My favourite warm drink is tea, but perhaps I’m biased being British!
