August 2021 Monthly Favorites: What I've Been Into This Month

 

    Hey, everyone! Today it is time to share what I've been into for the month of August. This month in general was a bit all over the place- but I managed to even take a break from social media in this month, too. I've been needing to take one (it's been a minute since I've taken one) anyways. 

Let's get into what I've been into:


Favorite New Ground Coffee:


I've been a fan of this brand for their cold brew coffees and I saw this when I went out to the grocery store one day. I really liked the name of it (strangely) and it was such a smooth, well-balanced coffee. And the fact it was organic is such a plus, too. Grab this bag the next time you're out (if you drink coffee that is).

Favorite On-The-Go Coffee:


Normally, I don't gravitate towards the pre-made dairy free canned coffee drinks (I'm a bit annoyed at the sugars in it) but one weekend I was at Trader Joe's and I needed a coffee to drink (since I was with my mom and we didn't plan to stop to get coffee). I saw this one and the cashier that checked my groceries out said from a friend of his it was really good. I took a chance and grabbed two of these. I loved this- the sweetness is definitely there for me- not a huge fan of sweet things in general. It was worth trying- if you're traveling somewhere and like coffee, definitely pick this up- only thing I would do is pour some of this over plain cold brew coffee (because the drink is naturally sweet for me- so you wouldn't even need to add any sweetener- if you use it in it). They make a vanilla oat-milk and a caramel one in this (haven't tried the others but hey may have to).

Favorite Herbal Tea:


I had tried this once before and I forgot how relaxed it made me feel before I felt asleep- it has a mix of oat-flower, lavender and lime-flower. It is such a nice tea before you go to bed at night. Add this to your tea arsenal (you'll thank me later!)- I just add honey to this and I find it doesn't even overpower it at all.

Favorite New Music:

"PMA (Post Modern Anxiety)" by All Time Low ft. Pale Waves- such a fun track about a really relatable topic in the world (anxiety)- the subject isn't always the easiest to talk about but by opening up it makes a little easier and not uncomfortable: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUoz6HaFg88

"I Wanna Be Your High" by Chad Tepper ft. DREAMERS- such a fun track to dance and get silly to:

"Cloudy Days" by Tones and I- a feel good track with feel good vibes I strangely dig:

Hope you enjoyed reading this post- maybe you found something new to try from this! Lemme know if you do- see for next month! Ready for Fall- so over the summertime heat!

Sending lots of love and light,

Lauren
