OK so let me just say this – I am a coffee person. I cannot start my day without my cup of coffee. I am dead without it. I like it black with extra sugar. Our helper knows exactly what I want so she can make my coffee even with closed eyes. The Starbucks here in RCBC also know how I take my coffee.
But the thing about my caffeine dependence is that it is controlled. By that I mean that I only usually take exactly one cup of coffee per day. And this usually happens at my house in the morning or in a very very early office meeting. With that said, I usually have a dilemma when my friends and I go to Starbucks on a gimmick night or when I go on numerous leads meeting to Coffee Bean. Sure, I order some form of Iced Coffee Frappy whatever but that is still coffee. I am trying to moderate my dependence and taking one during the day or night isn’t going to cut it for me.
And so I tried some alternative and found the BEST one – The Pink Guava juice! At first, I found it weird drinking guava fluid when the only interaction I have with guava is when I tried picking its fruits in my province and eating sinigang sa bayabas. But guava in Starbucks? Hmmm.. Hehe… Anyway, I tried it out and started loving it. I realized that rarely do I get a chance to drink guava juice. In the end, this became my staple drink in coffee shops. My team mates in Accenture need not ask my order anymore since they already know. That’s probably one reason why I’m not particularly fond of Figaro since they don’t carry them in their menu (Kudos to Starbucks and Coffee Bean!). I even had the opportunity to influence some of my SFC Family, officemates and friends to get hooked on this addicting wonder! Hehe.
Anyway, to all those reading this, go try it out. It might not make much impact on first try but please give yourself one to two more cups to fully experience its unique effect. You’ll surely find yourself being hooked in the end. Hehe.
As for me, well, I’ll just finish sipping my Pink Guava after publishing this post. Enjoy guys!
