Presents in the post - Red Balloon

I have always loved the post.
Maybe it is in my heritage as my great, great grandfather was a postman in France...
Getting letters, cards and things in the mail has always filled me with delight, yet as times turn more and more digital you just don't get the same amount of mail like we once did, we even get e-cards and digital Christmas cards now.
So you can imagine my delight when to be able to review a RedBalloon experience!

My RedBalloon  experience was all about organic, fair trade  coffee, and yes it was just wonderful!
AND look at how stunning it comes to your door! The packaging and styling was faultless and it really did make my day extra special when I received it.

I truly treasured the moment and waited for my toddler to have her nap before brewing up a pot of one of the beautiful, organic coffee of the month and sitting down to enjoy it with a great biscuit, chocolate maca ball or macadamia bliss ball. Giving myself a treasured 10 minutes of quiet, cool breeze and delcious hot coffee - bliss!

I really enjoyed this review, and not just because I love a great coffee or because I love receiving things in the mail, or even because I absolutely loved the gorgeous presentation, I really enjoyed this review because it felt like a special reason to take some time out in my day for me and that is why I would not hesitate to do more Red Balloon experiences and give them as a gift.

RECIPE - Chill out with a Healthy & Moorish Iced Coffee

Chill out with a Healthy & Moorish Iced Coffee

It's hot but you still like to get together with friends and chat over a coffee, or take some time for yourself and sit with a coffee so this is a great recipe you can pre make and enjoy with friends and best of all it's healthy!

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup cold made up coffee
• I love organic coffee's and my local Montville Coffee
• 1 tablespoon Macca Powder (optional)
• 1 tablespoon organic cocoa or cacao (I used Planet Organic - organic, natural cocoa powder)
• 1 tablespoon cold pressed flax seed oil
• 1 litre organic soy, almond milk or real milk like Maleny Dairies 
• 1 tablespoon dark agave, raw honey 
• Sweet Leaf liquid chocoate stevia
• to taste (optional)

Method

• Blend together all ingredients except the stevia
• Taste and then sweeten with stevia to your personal taste preference
• Chill in the fridge
• Serve in decorative glasses
• Sprinkle a little cocoa powder on top to serve

Notes

• I made my coffee, strong in a stove top percolator then let completely cool.
• Make it more chocolately by adding some drops of liquid chocolate stevia (YUM, natural, chemical and sugar free!)
• You can leave the cocoa out and even increase the coffee to taste for a strong coffee version.
• Serve as a cocktail with a little dash of a coffee liqueur.

Enjoy!
