Heart of the Week: Organic Gemini TigerNut Horchata
Coming back from Mexico, the MOMENT I landed in LA last Sunday, I felt the itchiness of a sore throat coming on. I got crazy sick with every typical sickness symptom. Hot fever, drowsiness, congestion, a cough—you name it, I had it.
.
And so the delivery of Organic Gemini’s beautiful superfood horchatas came at the perfect moment, when I had zero inspiration and energy to make myself something healthy that I could sip on this. At the time, all I wanted was toast and bagels (anything simple really!), but their mylks allowed me to get my nutrients in with little to no effort!
.
My favorite was, of course, the Green TigerNut Horchata (go figure!). It was actually a close tie with the cold brew coffee which SAVED me one day last week when I was super sick, but had to go to an audition—it pulled me out of my hazy sleepy mode and helped me rally for an hour or so.
.
And I like that none of them taste too sweet!
Leo's fave was either the Banana Horchata or the Chocolate Horchata, a tie for sure :) I tried them both and really liked them too.
The other morning, I added the Chai Horchata to my coffee with Coconut Magic, and it tasted incredible! Seriously so tasty—I want it every day! It’s like a superhero version of dirty chai!
And I'm SO excited to use the TigerNut flour in a baked item; I'll be playing around with new recipes this week now that I'm finally feeling a little more like myself :)
