Hello Everyone! Sorry for the haitus. I recently had a lot on my plate. Finding time to blog and try out new recipes between school, serving in ministry, and volunteering is so hectic! But no worries. I am going to get back on this blog asap!
What I wanted to quickly post about…was my current obsession. Well, it has been an obsession ever since I started college. What am I talking about…for those who know me…you know what I’m going to say. PHILZ. mmmmmmhm.
I am at this very moment, sitting in Philz enjoying my favorite combination…
an Iced Coffee with a Almond Croissant.
The Almond Croissant:
I swear. There is something about their almond croissant. It seems to match perfectly with any coffee hot or cold. It’s the prefect size, it’s not like those huge costco croissants. It’s flaky on the outside & filled with slightly sweetened almond meal. So many almond croissants these days have like…a sprinkling of almonds. How disappointing. I have been craving their almond croissants almost everyday…but I only allow myself once a week if even that. Mmm…if butter wasn’t an issue, I’d be snacking on these all day.
The Coffee:
So…I know I said I was going to go on a tasting adventure and try every Philz, but lately, I have just been craving specific favorites. This week I have been cycling through the Mint Mojito & their Iced Ecstatic. The weather has been dreary and rainy but oddly humid, which automatically makes me want iced drinks. Weird? Maybe it’s because humidity flashes me back to the sweaty days in Taiwan. 😛 If I’m craving a good cup of hot coffee, I still opt for the Philtered Soul. After trying a good amount of their regular blends, Philtered Soul still tops. There is ONE coffee, that I have tried and actually really disliked. I know it’s a favorite among some regulars at Philz…but I just…bleh. Philharmonic. 😐 To me…it seems to have a blend of licorice, chai spices, star anise, kinda flavor. It could be because I simply DESPISE licorice. But that’s the only coffee that I will never touch again. But to each their own right? It’s still fun to try it…who knows. It might be your favorite. (:
Next blog post will be dedicated to Summer Drinks. Be on the lookout. (:
