Delicious Honest Tea

While on a shopping trip to Whole Foods, my mom picked me up a bottle of Honest Mango Acai White Tea to try. I can honestly say, it was the most delicious iced tea I've ever had (pun intended). In a pinch, it's easy to turn to the likes of Arizona or the Lipton mix, but this tea did not have the overpowering sweetness that most iced teas have. How do they do it? Honest boasts that instead of accessorizing with high fructose corn syrup (so last century), they add a pinch of organic cane sugar, mangos and the superfruit acai. Refreshing and super tasty.

Thank you Honest Tea for making my new favorite drink of choice. Cheers!

Foodies

Do you tend to frequent the same restaurants? N and I always find ourselves falling back on old favorites. On Monday, we started a new tradition of trying out a new restaurant once a month. We kicked things off at Masa in Boston's South End and loved it. Our meals were devoured in no time at all and the sangria was the perfect way to end a hot summer day.

I also like to take advantage of Boston's Restaurant Week. This year, P.B.S., Frank and I have chosen to dine at The Fireplace in Brookline.

What's your favorite dinner spot in Boston? Hole-in-the-wall or upscale? Let me know, we'd love to add to our list.

Hail The Grillmasters

The summer is officially in full effect now that I've had my first Boca burger of the summer. And not just my first, but in the span of two weeks, I've probably had about 8. I really can't tell you how much I love food from the grill, but to save my taste buds from hating the barbecued goodness come August, I'm taking a short, and I mean short, break from eating them. Tell a lie, I'll probably have one this weekend.

Much love to my favorite grillmaster - Dad.
